[rpeek]

@MrBigkid831 Thank You neighbor...

[jackuppercut]

Absolutely great!!! I've been following your lessons since april and have got myself coming along. I have been trying to figure out "Greasy Fingers" but its tough by ear...any chance of a re-post with some shots of the slide-work?

[rpeek]

@jackuppercut You know, that's one of those songs where I've no idea what tuning I was in or what I played. Just came in and grabbed up a banjo one day and went at it for a while. Wish I could be more helpful....

[Reggie2699]

You sir................are the best! I hope to mimic your style and finesse on the banjo one day.

@Reggie2699  Thank You!

[areilla10]

Plays banjo like nobody's business AND he owns a Rambler. Awesome. Wish my Dad still had his old 69 SC...

[wrath1987]

[rpeek]

@PeluMaad It's good and good for ya too..

[peazythatsmeazy]

I am the writer you responded to on "3 a.m. Slide Banjo." Another great vid. "Carburator Adjustments" is a much better name mate. Ha. Great vid. Cheers!

[rpeek]

@peazythatsmeazy  You're right. It is.. hahaha.

[thepickletrain]

[skitzonacid]

[Palkooo]

wow

[rpeek]

Thanks... Tried to respond to your email, but my computer kind of jammed.... Anyway, nice to meet ya... 34 Fords is hot..

[VinnyMartello]

Woa! You are really an old salt at this arent you? You play that thing as though your were just hittin' the throttle!

[rpeek]

Yep.. Love to gas her.. hahahaha

[fgleich]

btw, did you get your Rambler fixed ! Maybe I should quit ramblin on.......

[rpeek]

Yea, did. She runs pretty good now. Both the cars are in pretty good order at the moment. Both could use more work, but that's the nature of hotrods isn't it... Always something more that can be done.. I enjoy all the work, so savor it slow....

[jwbajan]

working on the Rambler. wowee!!!!!!!!!!

[rpeek]

Yessir! Life is good when you're got a Rambler and a banjo....

[banjolisterine]

that's good music there I like it. have you ever heard bukka white's "poor boy rambling?" -- I've done some two finger work on it. lost my slide here of late though. like that slide banjo. I think it needs more attention in the wider bluegrass circles.

[rpeek]

To be honest with ya, I never heard anyone play slide on a banjo before I tried it. Now I've heard a few people mess around with it here on youtube. I just figured I'd try something different. Like your Rocky Top. and No I haven't heard Poor Boy Rambling. Where would I find it?

[matttttt84]

hm, well i just searched a bit and realized both patterns are the same, hah! too many nicknames here, oh well, i learned something new today..

can't stop watching this either, much thanks from richmond, va..

[matttttt84]

you've now inspired me to start my slidin with a clawhammer, i've had my run with a frail for a bit and it's time to broaden my finger's horizon's

that made my morning as well, i'm glad i got up early for a change - time to take my beagle to the river!

[perleatsworld]

best banjo playin i've seen

[rpeek]

Thanks. Wicked fun to play..

[sofnwhat]

way cool sound. love this vid.

[rpeek]

Thanks...

[thoeckel]

Whoa........ were you actually making funny faces while playing?????? Not so "serious" this time....... awesome

[rpeek]

Yep.. Was..
