How I got good at banjo (for rooks only)

Sunday, September 14, 2025

I member my own first time playing the banjo like it was yesterday. I'll admit, it wasn't fun at first, but as I got older it changed me life. My biggest achievement was playing at the Clarence hall memorium. Everyone was in suits and dresses, it was a dinner theatre and I got to be front n center with my group. Anyways nuff about me, I wann give uu three steps.

 

1.) never give up

as long as you don give up, you will make it

2.) take breaks

playing them strings hurts! Easy on her and she'll reward youz

3.) set goals 

it's how you improve

 

i hope ts helps, gooooday!?:67

Hey there, fellow banjo lovers! I’m Furg O' Son, a professional taste tester with a passion for all things music. I've been strumming since 1966, and my raspy singing voice adds a unique twist to my tunes. My favorite bands range from the folk sounds of Old Crow Medicine Show and John Denver to the creative beats of Tyler the Creator and Playboi Carti. And yes, I rock out to Metallica too! Just don’t ask me to play anything by The Beatles—I HATE them. I’m all about that banjo life, whether it’s on my electric banjo, mariachi banjo, or my trusty 7-string and fretless banjos. My style? A little thumb twiddling goes a long way. Let’s share some music and good vibes! I want to let y'all know I also fancy myself rubbing the glass armonica, and I may meander in the fiddle.
