Topic: New banjo pickin' member

Hi, all

Just ran across this site in my never-ending quest for new material, so figured I'd just join up, and introduce myself!

Been pickin' on and off for a few years, and now I'm ready to get a little more serious about the whole proposition.  I did a little browsin', and it looks like I'll find this site a valuable  resource.  I'm excited to find ya all here, I've been lookin' for a place like this!

Now, back to lookin' for an avitar pic that's small enough to fit!  Don't give us much room for 'em on this board.

Welcome to chordie. Lots of great people here, all willing to share advice and experience.

Welcome aboard cavecookie.  Where I live it's not called a band unless there's a banjo player in it.

Guess they know what real music is down your way!  Here in central Oregon, folks see my banjo and say "Gee, that's a funny-lookin' drum!".

Seriously, though, there are a few banjo pickers around, and I need to get goin' with some jams.  I figure the best way to stick with it is to have some folks pushin' me to improve.
