my great-grandfather played the banjo and was a friend to me at a young age but i have no visual memory of him at all because he died when i was two. both of my grandfathers i didn't know and only one of my grandmothers was a big part of my life.
but back to banjo music, can take it in small doses, but if it's hard bluegrass style and fast then i can turn that off and save myself... slower ballads are much more acceptable.
and now thanks to you, even when i'm playing other music i have the theme from Beverly Hillbillies going through my head... all. your.. fault... !. !!.. !!!... !!!!.... .... ... .. .
