...btw, one old Gal in the Rest Home, usually sits in her wheelchair in front of me and at the end of every tune, says (very loudly) "You sure play a mean fiddle!".....not sure just how to take that... :rolleyes: |

She hated me.
(I am not now, nor have I ever been, a banjo player. Thank you Mr. McCarthy.) |

The bagpipes burn longer, but the banjo burns hotter. |

In the 4th picture down, you bear a striking resemblance to Carol Channing in "Hello Dolly"!
Seriously, what a wonderful thing to spend time brightening the day of some folks who may not get alot of day brightening. God Bless.

The 4th picture down, are they the three wise men? :confused:
Na can't be, one of them has a banjo. :D
Seriously keep up the good work. Next week I'm singing at a hospital in Knoxville. Part of it is on closed circuit TV.
It's either me or wrestlemania. :D
Maybe the weather channel. Bill Cosby call's The Weather Channel "Mister Rogers Neighborhood for old people." |

..so, Cliff, whattaya think? can TMG use a banjo player? The banjo would really add zip to your Olivia Newton-John cover songs! |

Location: the BIG Metropolis of TR | Tim, I've had a few laughs at your expense but I think that what you are doing for the older folks is wonderful. It's easy to laugh now (especially since you play banjo! ;) ) but we all (hopefully) are going to be old someday and may wish we had someone to bring a little music and happyness to our life........ |

However I plan to play 'till my fingers fall off and die before they hit the floor.
The devil's in the details..... |
