Just want to say hello to those out there at Banjo Hangout.
I just got me an account on the Hangout. I recently purchased a Deering Boston and I'm starting to try to pick a little. I am 55 years old and work in Germany right now and for the next 2 years. I grew up in a little town in the Arkansas Ozark mountains. I was born in Batesville and grew up in Mountain View and Heber Springs. My Grandpa used to pick a 5 string really well. He passed on years ago. He taught me a little bit when I was 10 or 12 years old. So, now I want to get back to my hillbilly roots. This sure is fun as I am getting older. I really like the new Deering. It's heavy but has a great ring to it. Very simular to my Grand Dads old Vega. I'm still a little clumsy with the picks, but practicing a little almost everyday. If anyone has any good tricks with the picks to help me along I would greatly appreciate it. Also, I would like to find a place on like that might have backup music for pickin practice.
Have a great day youall,
Rick
