I don't even have a calendar, but I got one so I could mark it.

That should be very cool!

Craig, you rock! For number two and three I vote for Brooks Masten and Colin Vance!

Cheers, Scott

I'm hoping to tune in as well. Thanks for doing this Craig and Jason!

Who would do a thing like this 2 in the morning? Will I be able to watch it somehow tomorrow?

Thanks for doing this Craig (and Jason if you see this)!

Best,
Max

I'm probably late to the party, but will this be archived? I'd love to watch, but I make it tonight.

I hope all goes well.

Cheers!

Right way or wrong way, I just want to play the banjo SOME way.

Yep, it's a 2am start in my time zone as well. Hopefully there'll be a way to watch later.

Either way, many thanks and good luck Craig

I tried to watch it but... The film was quite blurry for five minutes then it went to obliteration with gray pixels and then a box came on and said "A SCRIP IN THIS MOVIE IS CAUSING ADOBE FLASH PLAYER 10 TO RUN SLOWLY. IF IT CONTINUES TO RUN YOUR COMPUTER MAY BECOME UNRESPONSIVE" "ABORT" "CONTINUE" I have a mini-mac so maybe it's a PC/mac thing? Maybe next time if it can be geeked out? Thanks for trying Craig! TC

Well I'm watching it from Aus now and its just fantastic. So interesting. Thanks Craig and Jason.

Excellent show! The Romeros are a delightful and talented couple.

Posted - 10/19/2009 :  18:08:33    

That was totally awesome! Jason and pharis seem like great people with their heads in the right place. Someday I'll get one of his banjos!

Craig, you did a great job. I really enjoyed watching that out in the living room on the big screen TV. Not exactly HDTV, but not too bad. And, fittingly, I was playing my Romero softly most of the time during the non-music parts.

Posted - 10/19/2009 :  18:40:51            

Thanks folks, for tuning in and for all the kind words. Aren't Jason and Pharis two of the nicest people you'd ever wanna meet?! Wow! What fun!



Ok. Looks like this time the technology "took" and I actually have a recording of the show for you folks across the deep blue sea to watch on your own time. Here's the link:

One other way you can access the program is to go to www.livestream.com/frailinflix, click on the On-demand button under the video player, open up The Banjo Hangout BANJO BUILDER Series file and click on Jason and Pharis Romero - Romero Banjos.

Oh, here's Jason showing me his Whyte Laydie tattoo. Boy, this guy IS into banjos!



DANG, we're lucky to be playing banjo at time of such great craftsmanship... and such great people. Lucky us!!

hey that was fun, thanks. it was great to see the shop, and a little of what the lifestyle of someone in that line of work is.

i can't believe he gave the first 20 listeners free banjos!!!

To all involved... that was a great show. Thanks for putting it together.

Thanks, Craig, for pulling this together. I was supposed to be grading papers last night, but have to admit I spent the time watching the interview instead. Having had the great privilege of visiting with Jason and Pharis last summer, I can only say that they're even more charming in person. Looking forward to the next one of these webcasts.
