Hey, Mr. Evans!! Incase you don't remember me, I am Matt the left-handed banjo player that has come to Camp Bluegrass the past two years in a row. I recently saw on American Made Banjo that you now own a Kel Kroydon banjo that is a Granada copy. Last year you brought the beat up Chief that had the split peghead, and I was thrilled to know that you now own a really rocking banjo!! The Dannick is really making some waves, huh? I hope to see you again this year, and look forward to hearing your new banjo. It totally blows the 75 that Sonny gave you away!! God bless!! Matt.
