At present we are using a 'smile' set - "Smile, Darn Ya' Smile," "Smiles," and "When You're Smiling." The intent of this selection is obvious. We welcome suggestions as to other songs that would be good for 'openers.' The Banjo Buddies. |

Bluegrass has a lot of up-tempo songs, and so does old timey. Probably a lot of pop tunes from the 20's to 40's for plectrum. |
