more banjo please!

Who doesn’t love the sound of a banjo being plucked? I was lucky enough to catch the end of our neighbor’s front stoop banjo serenade yesterday on my way in from walking Bowser. Made me want to have a good ol’ hoedown right there on the street, but I did somehow refrain.
It put me in such a good mood though, that I’m going to give away an 8×10 print in honor of loving banjos. All you have to do is leave a comment, and we’ll pick someone at random to win a copy of this pic in the mail. It was taken almost a year ago at the end of the Tweed Ride in DC. You have until the end of this week to leave a message!

Now there comes a time in every man’s life where decisions have to be made. Whether to toil, to labor or just plain piss your days away, away, away.

Earl Scruggs and Steve Martin playing “Foggy Mountain Btreakdown” to get contestants in the mood to try to win the drawing:

It’s great to see that we all do things our own way. I could never take a photo like this one. Very different portrait.

We should all be grateful to Mr. Pete Seeger, the man that is legend. In the honor of your DC post and the city being political it is he who has changed so much with his undeniable voice and that plucking of a banjo he did so well. “This Machine surrounds the hate and forces it to Surrender”. Pete Seeger did so much to keep banjo playing alive in this country and held camps at his upstate New York home for youth to turn on the next generation and keep it alive.

If I win this I will give it to someone who would really appreciate it… the gnar master himself Mr. Joshua Shultz….
