Folks,
I am really sorry to have been out for so long. I’ve been working on a lot of projects that don’t involve music and they have eaten up all the free time that I have. Today was the first time I’ve picked up a banjo to just play for three weeks except for giving lessons. I really miss just sitting around and playing and figuring out what songs to do for the video lessons.
I should be back next week since everything should wrap up this week. I’ve been having fun, but I miss the music. I’ve been trying to keep up with everyone’s uploads on YouTube and everything happening over at BanjoBandits, but it’s been hard finding the time.
The one thing I would like to share are the videos that Mandy did for beginners to clawhammer banjo. She did a very good job of breaking everything down and it has that knee to knee quality that I like.
I’ll see you all next week or if I’m lucky I’ll try to make a video this week.
Mandy,
They are great lessons and everyone should watch them. I couldn’t think of a more fitting contribution to put up in my absence.
I have been playing for 3 months and am learning a lot from Kelly and his videos here. I’m working on cripple creek and even though I am clunky and a bit wobbly but it sounds darn purty to my ears.
Mandy’s cripple creek lessons have been very helpful. thanks
Hi h00fa – Glad to have helped.

WOW Kelly!! I am in shock. I come on here often to see your new stuff, but today I get on and see my own mug staring back at me, LOL. I hope I live up to everyone’s expectations with those lessons. I’m missing your vids
