Righto #Banjos
Two days ago there was a long, dark hair in my cajun chicken roll. OK, this happens and it's accidental.
Today, my party pies have zero salt in them and they're beyond shit.
I pay quite a bit for lunch in your establishment. Maybe not for much longer.
@JaneHadley What do you want to read about or plan to write about? The theory is that an #introduction page or two with those topics as hashtagged keywords will lead folks to you. So far, I'm not finding much regional #journalism in #BlueRidge #Appalachia where I live, but a little about #fiddling, #banjos, #mandolins, #oldtimemusic, #oldtimeradio and other things I'm interested in.

@Rushkoff and @msifry not only talking smart #TeamHuman stuff, but nice shout-out to #PeteSeeger's #SloopClearwater campaign to clean-up the Hudson, starting some 50 years ago. Does activism need more #singing and #banjos? https://www.teamhuman.fm/episodes/237-micah-sifry

Did you know that the banjo is “the first Black American cultural thing that was not just inherited by a cultural group in Africa but was created here by Black people collectively”? That’s what folk musician Jack Blount told our own Chris Stewart. #blackhistory #folkmusic # #banjos

a girl was jumping up and down and saying to a guy: “we got a DRUM KIT. an electric DRUM KIT. fucking COME OVER and bring your BANJO,” and i don’t think i’ve ever been that happy
@Charlobo @tjapple Thanks, I forgot to mention "pinning"! Probably should emphasize that you can use hashtags in any post about anything, which helps spread linkage around. I was surprised after a few days to have more people following me than I had followed. I suspect it is the #ukuleles and #banjos more than the #Newspapers, #OldTimeRadio and #Appalachian #swVirginia :-)

Some nice Honduran rosewood supporting an 11” rolled brass tone ring. 99.9% of the turning was done in the shop by our lathe operator as he graciously trained me on some of the basics of the machine. I prepped and glued the blocks before they were all turned but the clean and lustrous final product and tight fit of the ring is all him.
Anyway, I now have me this slick tone ring, so onto the mahogany rim. #banjo #banjos #luthier
Bringing a couple of today's topics together: music with banjos and John Boorman films.
Deliverance is a classic 1972 movie starring Jon Voigt & Burt Reynolds. The movie is a thriller which pits four city adventurers against some local mountain men.
Near the beginning of the film is this iconic "duelling banjos" scene (in Deliverance it is one banjo, one guitar):
