A weekly check-in on the Banjo versus TV project — J.R.'s resolution to spend more time in 2008 on his banjo than on TV. After having fallen up to 4 weeks behind on his so-called-weekly check-ins, he's now nearly caught up and is posting this check-in a mere one week late.
The big news this last week was, of course, the Four Corners Folk Festival, which you can read all about by following this label.
I lugged my banjo all the way to the festival and only jammed a little, but it was good jamming.
My nicest playing-my-banjo experience this week was on the dirt road on the way to the festival. I was about half way through the 4-hour drive from Albuquerque Airport to Pagosa Springs, CO; in the middle of nowhere Colorado. I hadn't seen anybody else for some time and I decided to pull off the road to admire the scenery and pluck a little.
Here's a picture of that experience. If you listen closely, you can hear me singing "This Land is Your Land."
