[mahalie23]

I need to get a drum machine...this DVD looks great. Once I'm no longer struggling with getting smooth rolls going for long stretches of time while doing chord changes...in time preferably, I'll try this DVD!

He makes this look so freakin' easy. I'd give my left one to play anywhere close to him.

[SwissBanjo]

Ron Block is teaching exactly what i want to know. Lerning the concepts behind is so important.

BTW: can someone tell me the name of the kick-off song ?

I like the way the music is playing in the background and he can't keep still...cute...totally cute.

[nathan2064]

i know right

[indydrt]

My second cousin is Peter Shwimmer ever hear of him...??

[RickRiman]

It's spelled "SCHWIMMER"!! Shame on you!! He's in your family! And he's the best banjo player of whom nobody has heard (except you, I, and a mere handful of the fortunate). Back during the Reagan administration, I was blessed with the experience of playing in a band with Peter. Anyone intrigued should check out his Myspace page; it's only the tip of a monstrous musical iceberg.

It's just an improvisation over a vamp. Ron used it to demonstrate a concept he teaches on the video.

[djAbrasive]

Can someone tell me the name of the song at 1:39, i love that style man.. It's really deep

[j25k]

Ron is so inspiring to me... He and the rest of union station is the reason I play the banjo today after playing the drums for 20 yrs. I just love bluegrass and every day I just wanna get better and better at the banjo. It's funny, but the banjo is very similar to the drums only difference is the tones, notes n' chords! I love it!

[Maysey1]

Great video and I believe a worthy DVD. I've been playing guitars for years, now only to discover I should have been maybe playing the banjo instead. I have a heavy Deering and wondering what should I use for a strap or could you advise or recommend a good supportive setup. Thanks for sharing! Mark

[carteru93]

Look up the NO-strap

[LeaveFishysWishbones]

ooo banjos are so classic to me

[EdenAlabama]

I got me a Steve Huber Lancaster with a gold plated ring.....man what a sound.....get one....

[randallpatrickc]

I can't wait to get my hands on this - I thnk Ron's style is just so "driving" in a laid-back manner if that's possible!

He's my favourite player of all time.

[Diegobanjo]

Ron Block is favourite banjo player and of course I'm gonna buy these DVDs!

[mashorbmashed]

Ron you amaze me!!

[Mcphersongirl]

OK I'm sitting here watching Union Station on PBS and Ron is playing "Cluck old Hen" and I"m thinking, I've got to see if he has a video, I love his style, I play banjo in a bluegrass band, need to get this video.

[musicianforjesus]

One of the best players I've ever seen

[banjoplayer17]

Woo Hoo I ordered mine last night. Can't wait I have been waiting on Ron to do a instructional video since I have been playing. In my opinion Ron deserves much more credit that he gets, his style is so solid and hard driving.
