Another FREE Show (for a limited time).



 





You know him. You love him.  Now you get to see and hear him upfront and personal-like.  He's MR. ERIC SCHLANGE!!



No, he's not a banjo builder, but he HAS built the largest consolidation of banjo builders, players and (banjo) lovers in the world!  And here's a link to his Banjo Builder Show (included in Volume 2 as an extra).

For more info on the Banjo Builder Series, go to northamericanbanjobuilders.com.  Volume 2 is now available as a preorder... and will be available for sale here at BHO in about a month.  



Thanks, Eric!  For building our online home!

Good work, as usual. I was hoping that it would have a shop tour - and it did!

So great to meet the man behind the Hangout. A fantastic video. Really personable interview. And tremendous insight into what it takes to make this community happen.  Thanks so much for creating and posting this.

The video made me stop and think of how terrific BanjoHangout (and Eric) are. How many times a day we tune in, how many new 'friends' we meet, how many new things we learn, how many great players we can now see and hear, how generous the sponsors are and how much we would miss it in our daily routines if BanjoHangout did not exist. All of our hats are off to Eric,Craig, Eric's wife and the moderators.

Great interview. Lots of information as to the history of the BHO. Eric has done and is doing a terrific job organizing, upgrading and maintaining the BHO. I have found it to be a very valuable resource and believe it's worth supporting. Been a paid member for years now.

That was great, Craig!



It's nice to finally meet the "man behind the curtain".

Thanks so much for putting this together, Craig. You do great work... and it was a pleasure to finally meet you in person after so many hundreds of emails and phone conversations over the past several years! If you're ever looking for more tasty Mexican food, you come out and see us! :-)


J-Walk - Posted - 04/05/2012:  17:38:08



Hey Craig, you should have asked him when the image server will be back up! cool

Congratulations and a heap of thanks to Eric for his efforts on behalf of all of us who are addicted to the banjo, and to "cousin" Craig Evans for sharing his encounters with all of the remarkable individuals who build these beautiful instruments. Gentlemen, well done!

Thanks, Craig.  That was worth every second of the 24 minutes and 7 second video of my usual picking time (well, I still picked). Now I also know us girls are one out of ten of all Hangouters. You boys are truly gentlemen and I'm grateful to know Eric better through your video.

Great idea for an interview, Craig! Thanks, Eric for all you do!
