Hi, i am new to this site and just wanted to introduce myself. My name is dave, been learning banjo for about 3 months. have lessons once a week. I have no musical backround at all, i just love trying to play the banjo. I live in west London. It is great to read peoples experience's and realise you are not the only one who is struggling.

Welcome to the world of @?!#*+•••|~<. Been playing for 2 years and love it. Blo"dy hard but it is worth the effort. This site is full of advice, tips, you name it, it's here. Just persevere it will come, slowly mind you but it will come. Try to get a tutor if you can because they will iron out any bad habits that may hamper you later on.
