Banjo Poem

Saturday, February 23, 2008

I love to play the banjo

in a fine, and old-time way.

In hot weahter, cold weather, even in the snow,

I love to play the 5-string wherever it is I go!

I love to play the banjo late into the night

sometimes all the way  until..............daylight! 

I love to play at the fiddlers' convention

and at the square dances, too,

playing the banjo is enjoyment, simple, plain and true.

Clawhammer's my style

I keep WPAQ, 740 AM, on my radio dial.

Emily, Enoch, Harold B. and Larry P

have all been great banjo pals to me.

So, wherever I go, whatever I do

I take my banjo with me, and I hope you all do, too.

I started playing the banjo after sustaining a knee injury playing softball. My main teachers have been Emily Spencer, Harold B. Hausenfluck, and Larry Pennington. I have played with several bands including The Fox Creek Ramblers, The Farmers' Daughters, The Virginia Whistlepigs, The Glade Valley Spring Chickens, The Donavan Cain and Trish Kilby Old-Time Bluegrass Duo, The Blue Ridge Mountain Ramblers, and The Mount Rogers Ramblers. Currently I am a member of the Oldtown Revelers old-time band, based out of Sparta, NC. I have also played rhythm guitar with a few other groups on an irregular basis. I love both old-time and bluegrass music. I enjoy playing at fiddlers' conventions and community events.
