OK on the banjo video,Walden (considering that we are talking about banjos), but can you sing? I'm waiting to hear some of those gospel words from your lips. That might make me a believer.

I think it's authentic. And you, a traditionalist. Tsk.

Hey Walden, why didn't you post this in the Trad Strings Forum?

Cause I figured this was the busier forum.

An entertainer to the bone.

Mind if I copy it over to there, too? Categorical venue, and all that.
