banjo

After finally conquering Wildwood Flower and mastering Little Maggie, I was feelin' pretty good coming out of my banjo lesson. Luckily, I decided to take a different route home, and bumped into a gentleman who happened to be loading his own banjo into his car. "I see you have a musical instrument! Guitar? No! Banjo! You should be in our banjo band!" No matter how much I told him that I haven't been playing long, he was pretty insistent that I come jam with them on Monday nights. Of course I will join, especially after he told me that they only play music written before 1920. Unfortunately, Monday was supposed to be my one day off, but it looks like I'll be working, but hopefully I can get out in time to make it up there. I'm always on the lookout for new middle-aged friends who play banjo.
