SamPaasch: quote:
I play the Piano (13 years) and Banjo (2 yrs). Piano: because I had to, my Mom made me learn when I was young. Now I love to play. (Weddings, Church, and other entertainment) Banjo: I really liked the sound, and also the bluegrass style. This one was on my own. I put myself in piano lessons in grade 12 (my folks didn't bother because my brothers before me quit every musical lesson they had), and by the time I had graduated I had my Gr 3 Royal Conservatory. But then I no longer had a piano, so I suppose that's a thing of the past for now. For the banjo, it seems to be a bit of a rare thing for young people in Canada to buy a banjo, and I'm fine with being a bit "out there." I love both clawhammer and bluegrass style, though I think clawhammer is a bit more endearing to me at the moment. But then, I am currently learning how to play from Youtube and Banjos for Dummies *blush*, so we'll see what happens when I save up for real lessons.
