Participated in my first old-time banjo competition last month, and had some luck. Now, of course, I've got the fever and want to line up some contests for next year as incentive to work a little harder on my technique this winter. Is there a master list of competitions? I'm especially interested in events in the South and Midwest (I live in Indiana, near the KY border,) but want to hear about other events and the experiences ot those who have competed.
