As a fellow banjoist, I really appreciate how little you need to look at the fretboard to see where your fingers need to move next. I sometimes practice with my eyes shut, but the results are not that impressive, and I go right back to playing by sight. Thanks for demonstrating the correct way to playing the 5-string.
Zepp, This is the banjo I bought! :) I'm trying to learn it and I think I am doing pretty good so far! I really enjoy being able to see your right hand :)
Do you know any way I could learn to frail. I've been trying to learn, but I have nothing to learn with. I can't find a good teacher on youtube. Could you help with a frailing instructional video??
If you do look sad, as some say you do, well, it's no wonder, with an audience like us.

You look sad.

No, not sad, but when I play I sorta step back and listen, so I frequently end up with a dead pan appearance. Don't mean to, but it happens!

I pointed you to the instructional videos on my website in another response; I'm pretty sure you saw that, but, just in case:
zeppmusic then dot then com. Look for the "Clearhead(TM)Instructional Videos" link!
Cheers.

If you see any photos or films of old-time (or Irish) musicians from 100 years ago, they usually have expressionless faces.
