Click for large file. “I have been waiting to start playing real bluegrass with people for quite a while, and now I can.” “This is so much more fun than sitting on the couch playing alone.” “I wish I had been introduced to this format much earlier. Isolated music is nowhere near as fun as being with a group.” “A masterful job at creating a safe environment for us to learn in. Everyone in my groups has led, played solos and sung a song.” “I've never tried to learn by ear before & it was so much fun.” “Through the class I got hooked up with a group of folks I love playing with, and we plan to continue to meet.” Calendar | Bands | Classes/Camps | Instructional | Audio/Video | Ask Dr.Banjo Store | Photos | Bio/History | Home | Forum | Contact Pete | Site Map ©2014 Dr. Banjo.com.
