Let's get a feel for what people actually play...

Think back, and tell us what was the LAST tune you played on your banjo. And how long ago.

For me, it was "Lulu Loves Them Young," about 30 minutes ago. I really like like playing that one.

"Now, people…. when it comes to the scientifical parts of music I know nothing about it, but I can play. Listen…. A man comes to this world naked and bare; He goes through life with troubles and care; He departs this life and goes we don’t know where; But he’ll be all right there if he lives all right here" ......... Uncle Dave Macon

Sorry, I was playing 3 finger. Sorry to break in on the clawhammer topic.
