The banjo is what will win them over?
It's a Steve Martin joke
Can you already play the guitar?
If yes, then congratulations, you can also play the Banjo.
Sadly I cannot. I'd like to.
Banjo slander should not be tolerated
I haven't heard that one. Hum a few bars?
Bander?
Slanjo?
Wait.....what happens if I don't take one
YES THANKS
Learning is opt-out. It may take 7-10 days for our system to fully remove you from the list
For years I made fun of the banjo and bought every string instrument I could get my hands on besides it. Then I randomly decided to get one in 2023 and boy do I feel silly. It quickly became one of my favorite instruments and now I wish I would have gotten one years ago.
More!
ah so this is where you get the extra pixels from
Can I learn to play the Kazooie?
I randomly found a cover of Pink Floyd's Time by a bluegrass band and it slaps even harder than the original song because of the banjo solos.
Ever hear the Charles River Valley Boys? They did an album of Beatles bluegrass covers while the Beatles were still together!
I really enjoy it.

This means 7 999 999 997 people want to learn how to play the banjo!
Not if you're in a folk-punk band. Get all that claw hammer banjo over here.
Wait until Steve Martin comes by.

Read it to the tune of "do you want to build a snowman"
Disagree. I would love to learn to play Foggy Mountain Breakdown.
After all, far cooler people than me have learned.
(Imagine being Steve Martin and not being the most talented person on stage.)
I'm more of an accordion person anyhow...
I'd just rip off the "thanks" part and wait...
