Thread Name: Do I Really Need To Wear A Strap?
Subject: RE: Do I Really Need To Wear A Strap?
Ah Bonnie! Yes, it must be a highly personal thing. For me, the banjo is much like a BRA! My right breast rests on the head by the arm rest. I gotta have a strap! But also, I find that if I don't use the strap, the screw things that hold the head on dig into my leg. (Sorry about not knowing the proper terminology - someone correct me!)

So here's a rich moment I had last week: I'm at my yearly check-up when my gynecologist is examining my breasts and suddenly says, "Oh, you play banjo?". I first thought "Woah! Where did that come from?" Then I realized she was looking at the banjo charm on my necklace. I thought I had "banjo breasts" or some such syndrome... Haha, I guess I do! Margo
