Will do.



 



Last night I saw lots of banjo cases, heard someone playing a cello banjo, and saw enough grey hair and Birkenstocks to give me a good feeling about tomorrow's gigs. big

Gary - - - It might be too late to tell you this but if you hear that cello banjo again (and find the person picking it), ask him if he's known as Mstar on the internet.  His real name is Bill, and I gave him directions to Zepp's about 5 months ago (he was in Zepp's neighborhood) and he ended up with a couple of banjos from Zepp and one of them was a GoldTone cello banjo.  He lives in Stockbridge which is about 130 miles from Mansfield and he likes that sort of music, so he's probably there at the festival.  



 



If you DO find the person, and if it IS Bill (Mstar), tell him dmiller says hi!  approve
