Hello,
If you're going to be near Cashiers on the 29th and would like to see and hear a few of my different banjos--come on out.
Here's the link to the time and place.

If you suspect you need a new banjo--you do. Trust your musical instincts. If a banjo calls to you to buy it, don't fight destiny. It was meant to be. :)

Mary, we only live about one hour away. We will probably be there......... Could you possibly give away one of your many banjos as a door prize???????????

"Banjoholic", I like it.

Mary,
I have a distant cousin who, I think, still lives in Cashiers. I sent the library link to her and encouraged her to attend. Wish I could be there. I absolutely love that part of the world. My very earliest ancestors settled there after coming over from Scotland via Virginia.

Hope you'll have some fun for us all.

Just thought I'd post a follow up. Banjos in History went real well in Cashiers and we had a full house and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves and have a good time. We may do this again sometime in Cashiers.
Also--gave the same talk/demo at Bainbridge College a couple weeks later--and we got out about 40 folks in the solarium and this went really well too.
The 5 string cello banjo was a particular hit at both locations--everyone loved it's growly voice and it was the first time most folks had ever seen or heard one.
Best wishes,
Mary Z. Cox
