For whatever it's worth... LOL... I did put up a new youtube today. Have not had time for messing around with youtube much for a long time... but today I managed to get a quick fiddle one up with my new fiddle I got about a month ago, and Sandy Boys on the new banjo, relatively new... can't remember how long I've had the Wildwood banjo now...

Thanks, y'all. Still trying to really get what I learned from Dwight Diller a little while back. He's an awesome banjo player and I'm struggling to get about 1/10th of what I learned from him!

His influence is evident in your playing. I'm really hoping one day to be able to attend one of his workshops.

You'll learn a lot if you ever make it to Dwight's.

Other than that, if you can get a copy of Just Rhythm, you will learn almost as much as from Dwight in person... I've watched it at least 100 times (conservative estimate), and he says he's putting several weeks' worth in that video... ha ha... I must really be a slow learner, because I think his understanding of how music works is so intimate I really don't think anybody could ever really learn all what he's trying to teach. I try, though... his playing is so doggone good... the man definitely knows what he's doin' on the banjo.

But that video improved my playing a ton, and then i finally did get over there to see him. Very glad i did.

Nice drop thumb technique in the second part.
