A video of me rambling about some pitfalls that I wish I had avoided at the beginning of my banjo journey.

Thanks for sharing your experience brother! A great video, with fantastic lessons. Thanks for the shoutout, and I must say thank YOU for being one of the great folks welcoming me into the banjo community. Finding a community, AND not getting stuck into a specific style are great advice not to only to beginners, but folks of all stages of learning. Wonderful video!

"Ether into a carburetor" Is a wonderful way to put the effect finding a community to learn with has on someone's playing.

I seriously second playing at memory care facilities and old folks’ homes. The staff definitely love it and the old folks are always so happy and thankful to hear some live music.

Great video. I’ve been playing for a year and a half and I have been guilty of isolating! I always say I will jam with others when I’m good enough! lol I know now that day will never come unless I bite the bullet and just do it. Jamming with others will build confidence, help your timing and help you develop tons of knowledge. Keep the videos coming!

Wait did you buy a Artisan Goodtime or a regular Goodtime for 750

@NarcanMedic 3 ай бұрын

Hey! It was a regular good time. I was aware that it was substantially marked up at the time of sale, but given market forces at that time, specifically related to demand generated by covid, there was little I could do about it . Lesson learned! Thanks for the view.
