How far did YOU have to go to resurect that olde, olde tune? "Grandfathers Clock"? I haven't heard that since I was a wee ladd.

You've got to bring us Forumites up to date, on which (whom?) came first, the steel guitar or Banjer?

Many steel players I've read about here on the Forum have a 'dislike' for banjer pickers in general; however, if you were a steel player first, I'd think some re-evaluating of the situation might be in order.

Enjoyed the performance, as always!

Cool! You are the MAN!

P.S. Did you say banjo joke? Well, Okay!

Pirates have captured a dozen banjo players off of a cruise ship and are holding them for ransom.

Until their demands are met, they have threatened to release one every hour.

I definately noticed that but he is so fast that I didn't see the hammer hit the gong either....Sounded just like a grandfathers clock. To get four gongs, he must have had to do a part each day for four days (don't forget the bass you could hear but not see).....rotflmao.....
