John from Texas recently posted a forum topic titled, "It’s frustrating and not fun." In it, he explained how to tried to sit down and play a song with a friend of his who has just picked up the mandolin. His friend picked up the new song easily, but John struggled and eventually gave up.
What advice do you give to someone like John, who has been working on learning banjo for a year or so? See what others said, and chime in with your own tips.

In this free lesson, picker/teacher Eli Gilbert shares five tips he's pulled from Earl's playing to help take your up the neck playing to the next level. They include playing 2-note chords up the neck with index+middle fingers, sliding up the neck on your fingernail, some ideas for bending strings, using the full tonal range of the banjo, and finger for the FMB roll.
