Saw Earl and the Revue in 1971 in Boulder, CO. and have loved the banjo ever since. Have only recently gotten the bug to actually be able to play. It's going slow, but I do have fun with it. Not sure how much my wife likes it yet though as it's a work in progress. Grew up in Michigan. Went to College in Denver. Moved to Idaho. Married a girl from Aspen. Lived there for 20 years, teaching skiing and other stuff. Moved back to Michigan for family business reasons in 97. Plan on retiring back in Colorado (hopefully soon). We sail a lot on Lk. Michigan and other places. Work. Bike ride. Practice banjo. Work more. Have one wife, Nancy a teacher at Kendall College. One daughter, Heather going to college in Chicago. One puggle dog, Aggie, who likes to eat.
