Any others you've observed??? LTS |

Furthermore, they will mangle it horribly. This will leave you to fall back on one of the songs that everyone has heard about forty times... Cheers Steven |

By the time you get the banjo out of the case and actually start playing the tune there will be one "B" part left to play. The session will then immediately segue into another tune that you don't even know on banjo. |
