      JasonK Hi, I've just started pickin' the banjo. Haven't got any thumb or finger picks yet. Would you recommend them? Having a good time learning frailing technique. Got a Deering Goodtime a few weeks ago. Very happy.

      johnjwood Hi, Jason! For the finger picks, I like the Pro-Piks to start, because they don't pinch your fingers. For thumb picks, I use National thumb picks, as they provide good comfort for your thumb and is a good brand to start with. What style are you...  moreHi, Jason!

      JasonK Hi John, probably too early to tell what banjo style I'm learning. There's a guy on youtube Dobro33H who I'm looking at. I'll take a look at yr suggestions. My band also do those songs. We have 5 singers so there's alot of harmonies flying around which is fun.

  • JasonK Nashville story 2015 Frank Hamrick I walked down Broadway past a string of bars open early Friday afternoon. Four of the clubs had live bands playing Merle Haggard covers. Three of them were performing “Mama Tried”. Sandwiched among faux, Nash Vegas honkytonks and urban cowboy outfitters; in a narrow downtown Nashville building was Hatch Show Print, a letterpress shop that had been in business since 1879. The first ten feet deep inside was devoted to selling broadsides, monoprints, restrikes and postcards.

On the other side of a counter that divided the storefront from the rest of the building were a dozen folks dedicated to using hand carved imagery and hundred-year-old wooden letters to design and print posters. This felt much different than staring past the menu into the kitchen at a Burger King. A tattooed woman with Betty
