What's the difference between a banjo and an accordion? The accordion takes longer to burn...

(I kid. I kid because I love)

I started on 4 (Bass&cello) as a kid...it's been a struggle to go past five...I did have an 8 string Ricken' for awhile..never really seemed to work...got this Alvarez Banjo I'm working with now...and a Fender Jazz(American Std.)...perhaps I'll post some pics...

"I have one thing I would like to confess before I go," he said. They all drew closer. "It was me," cough, wheeze, "I was the one," he said as they leaned down as close as they could to hear what he could barely get out in a whisper.
