Well my new banjo has arrived as of Tuesday. I had it all planed out to post something when it had arrived. But I just kept plucking away at it until something like music started coming out of it. now that I have Cripple creek down all but the speed that is. maybe quarter speed? I will go on to learn some other song maybe Cumberland gap. I don't think that I'm doing to bad for not playing any instrument before this week. I know speed will come and I have patience, and nothing but time. for three days now I have practiced for about four hours each day. I'm learning Scruggs style picking, It just seems a natural way to pick a banjo to me is it easier or harder than any other style? I don't know but its the style I like. Thanks to Rob Bourassa and his youtube videos. So far his technique suits me fine. I find his videos very helpful. It sucks to be broke lol. maybe if I feel like traveling 12 or so miles I will hire a teacher but for now Internet will suffice. I feel that I can learn all I can for free here on the web then I will hire an instructor. luckily I have this gift of not keeping bad habits. so "yay me" lol. well it's after bed time gonna go practice some more ;)
