Picked with Earl---in person!

Thursday, December 10, 2009

Nov. 2009 I was at a small event hosted by Jim Adkins and several professional pickers showed up.  They let us all play on stage and take breaks.  We could even sing and pick a song, which I did. 

The "moment in time" was when Earl Scruggs came up and played a few songs.  I was able to play along with him on Foggy Mountain Breakdown and several other songs.  Little Roy Lewis and Lizzy Long were also at this event.  Lizzie needed a banjo for one song and I handed her my Stelling SwallowTail.  The whole night seems like a dream!

After Thanksgiving I had a drop thumb pickin' lesson with Leroy Troy and my parents and I visited with him after the lesson.  Really great, down to earth fellow.

Wow!!  This has been a year I'll never forget!!

Merry Christmas, ya'll

First got my hands on a banjo in Feb. 2008 and play as often as I can. In March 2009 I met and played on stage with Little Roy Lewis and Lizzy Long at a little Gospel Barn. I met Earl Scruggs in April 2009. I entered my first Banjo contest on Oct. 2, 2009, met Randal Morton. A month later went to his house for an hour lesson. Oct. 24th saw Longview and met J.D. Crowe. Nov. 2009 played on stage with Earl Scruggs; Foggy Mountain Breakdown and several other songs. WOW! Little Roy Lewis and Lizzy Long were also at this event. Lizzy needed a banjo for one song and I handed her my Stelling SwallowTail. The end of Nov. had a drop thumb pickin' lesson with Leroy Troy in his home and my parents and I visited with him after the lesson.
