amazing banjo player

[niederman]

@theGlobalhunger

It's actually not that uncommon for Asians to play banjo.

Shigeru Miyamoto, the creator of the Mario brothers, owns and plays the banjo quite well.

And my favorite banjo player is very much Asian. Ken Aoki

[vulkn1]

Call that playin banjo....or playin with the banjo??

[geoffbb100]

Amazing? Not.

[plonker00765]

hardly amazing, he's just a strummer, the fact he's an asian banjo player is unusual.

[TheGlobalhunger]

asian....who could ever imagine??

[bigdjindustriez]

This is a BANJO, not a ukulele.

[kipkay211]

No speed, watch Deliverance - Dueling Banjo, and take notes on SPEED!!

[Staveish]

Quit with the negative comments. The guy's having fun. So the title is a little over-blown. BFD

[SovietLlamaMC]

in the backround i cant tell whether that is a teenage boy or a middle-age woman...

[lilreb601]

I liked to have fell slap off the couch laughing.

[Rich711]

Nonsense. It's just a guy playing a banjo like it was a guitar. I wonder if he even knows how to play the banjo.

[ROBERSEISSIETE]

. Chinatonw....Cow boys 

[banjoboy04]

[jwise2000]

[wb4tto]

Better than I can do?  Yes

Amazing? Not by a long shot.

[rsills86]

[KenpoDisciple]

[sitarstylereptiles]

If this is good banjo pickin then why is the world coming to

[BigGregWalsh]

EEEEEHHHHH he's playing Tsugaru Shamisen on the banjo I can see his technique came from

Tsugaru.

[guitarsnbooze]

I don't know about amazing. but at least he's not playing a six string banjo.

[DissidentDescendant]

What's with all my fellow banjo players calling this the "wrong" way to play banjo? Please tell me you don't play Scruggs style, because clawhammer and flatpicking came along way before that.

[Honeysucklebommie]

 chicken plucking music, sweet n sour :-) .

[glorymtn40]

really? i mean , really? amazing? come on man.

[Jenniwren09]

SUCK ONLY AMERICANS PLAY BANJOS

[timothydheath]

It is Amazing because he can get a Chinese banjo to sound half way decent.

[skipshooter1]

[sitarstylereptiles]

Banjo is not played that way tho is terrible

[HeavyProfessor]

this sound AWFUL!!!

[DreadScottamus]

This is really cool. Talk about a melting pot:)

[BAIBExV]

can somebody please tell me the name of the song that is played!! i love it

[YiHaHoi]

@BAIBExV I need it too! is great! xD

[Robin18us]

It doesn't matter what style a person plays, as long as it's fun for him. For those who complain about this man's style, buy a banjo for yourself and learn to play however you like and enjoy yourself also. In other words, do your own thing and enjoy! :o)

[bluegrasssingingman]

This is a insult to banjo pickers. Unless your name is Keith Urban.

[MrBronski1]

Don't miss the one on bass, either. Anyway.

[MrBronski1]

Poor banjo.

[makotoni11]

playing it like a shamisen! thats pretty cool.

[aliwhitwell]

Not too inspiring I'm afraid!

[NChiker2]

Hell, I dig it. Something different

[tiodiego]

name of song :O!?

[roboguy999]

Try finger piking , it sounds much nicer

[kuni90210]

He played the banjo by the rendition of the old style of Japan.

[TheFlatbanjo92]

what the hell is this?????



[Mcsweendoodles]

you dont happen to be off the hangover............do you....

[elclochiel]

That was amazing! The people who don't get it must never have heard shamisen music. I had no idea that style works with a banjo. Well done!

[Gothicday1]

I'm not sure what the Hell that was...but it looks like you were all having fun!

[vagtrader]

He's got rhythm !

[slolo420]

They look Native Canadian to me. Great job! Love it!!

[guitarreilly]

just face it you asians just are not any good and playing instruments....

[746c]

@guitarreilly except violin and piano also math

[guitarreilly]

@746c the joke was basically they are good at everything

[kevins1310]

my dick make a girl sounds better than this

[YaGottaBeKidding]

Really cool. Japanese-style frailing. Shamisanjo!

[jakethefiddle]

strange but obviously enjoyable!!!!

[FANTASMAGROSSO]

amazing??????

[eternalingame]

Banjo skills.....want.

[ABanjoLife]

OKay now, This is awesome. I love the idea here. Taking the banjo out of the regular bluegrass world is what I am all about. The recording is less than great, and the play is slightly sloppy but a great find and I will search more of this type

[billymidol]

he is like a starburst.... a juicy contradiction

[Voileen]

yay for Asian bluegrass bands! Don't see enough of this . . . absolutely amazing picking!

[Billabong0211]

That.

Was.

Awesome!!!
