My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Banjo playing yo-yo players. ;) Given the odds of that, I'd be happy just meeting nice folks. :)

Music:

Here are some solo banjo samples. Feel free to download these. They're all short, and just simple PC recordings. No tricks, no special effects - just a banjo and a microphone.
MacaBanjo - Clawhammer Fun
Footprints in the Snow - 3 finger Bluegrass
Soldier's Joy - Minstrel Banjo

The following I recorded and added some "effect" to simulate an old cylinder record. Berekely March - Classic Banjo
