  • thank you, very nice picking indeed

  • i think boucher in boston is pronounced bow-cher, accent on first syllable and is an irish surname

  • Great tune, HOWEVER, you are NOT playing this awesome minstrel banjo in the minstrel style. You are playing it in Claw hammer style. 

  • "Pattyroller"... I guess that's better than calling the song its original title ("run n***er run").

  • I have never gotten the B part of this right .. Thanks for the great clip .. Do you think Tater Patch is a relative ?? All the best , Guy

  • Excellent!! I have all of Waynes cd's except Outlaw Ballads of the Old West. Waynes website Nativegroundmusic is the best one on old time music that I have ever come across.

    Thanks, keep up the good work.

  • Really cool! Thanks!
