I have had the pleasure of interviewing some interesting banjo personalities for Mel Bay's Banjo Sessions website. These fine people deserve recognition for their talent and hard work. I hope you will take a few minutes to follow the links below to learn more about them.

Hello,
As you may see from my interview--the "Be A Star, Play Banjo" class this last February at the John C. Campbell School has come and gone. (I'll be teaching this class there again in July of 2008)
However, here are our events in May. :)

Thanks for adding that Mary. Sometime when we make a trip to the southeast we will have to time it for one of your concerts!

Nice pic...the pre 1970 D18 is my favorite Martin. Classic....no frills...unbelievable sound.
Are you going to be in Maine this summer? I'll be as far west as Colorado.
