Hello everybody.
Earlier this week my buddy Chris stopped over to jam for a few hours. He had left his acoustic guitar at someone else's house so he brought along a banjo instead. Neither of us really know how to play the banjo and he was playing the banjo along with me on acoustic guitar and it wasn't working out right. So I gave him my acoustic guitar and took the banjo from him and said, we've got to play a banjo song. We got a banjo! .
I don't really know how to play banjo but there it is!
I really, really don't want to lie to you.
So, I'll just say, "Well, that was something."
;-)
LoL It's a banjo song!
It is! It's Dueling Banjos from Deliverance - though I'm pretty sure it was a song before the movie and I'm pretty sure it was played with two banjos. Pretty sure - but not positive.
Don't worry, I can't play a banjo either. I can kinda fake it, 'cause I've had practice and it's a stringed instrument.
Well garsh, that sure was purdy. I think you did great on an instrument that seems difficult to play. That laugh at the end was right in character.
I think that's how it would actually sound with inbred retards playing it LoL
That was originally done back in the '50's and Buddha was right, it was 2 banjo's (hence the name). Of course, the actors in the movie didn't play it, it was done by some bluegrass players.
That's one of the few banjo hit songs. Great instrumental. I never get tired of that one. The fit in Yankee Doodle went to town really cool.
Sweet City Woman by the Stampeders was a big hit with a banjo. Mrs. Brown You've Got a Lovely Daughter by the Herman's Hermits sure does sound like a banjo but I guess it ain't.
Rainbow Connection is a good banjo song. Kermit the Frog.
Im going to have to check out all those songs!
Thanks!
