Thread Name: 'wrist problems' with my Banjo..
Subject: RE: 'wrist problems' with my Banjo..
Thanks for your help Mudjack, but I´ve already testet aspirin and some other stuff too (even cortison) but my wrist still aches..

By the way I´m 27 years old and I´m playing in a band in Sweden called "The Banshee". We play Irish trad music and we love the music!! My main instuments are Tin whistle, banjo,singing. Sometimes i play guitar and som mandolin, but I´m not good at it.. Me and my friends are happy amateurs, but we hope to learn more to become a great band sometime.

I also love American old time music, blugrass etc. The sound of a banjo tuned in mountain minor is my favorite!! I think nothing beats that tuning!! My main style is frailing,but I play some 3 finger-picking in some of our songs.

Look at me!! I just talk and talk like a child or something (hehe) but this is so new for me (internet) so many folks to share problems,questions etc. with This forum is great!! As I said before I live in SWEDEN and know ONE person who playes banjo...He lives a looong way from where i live..

Hope to hear from ya all!!
