“Just my opinion mind you but my banjo is more attractive than any old guitar.

I will admit though, it ain’t exactly a chick magnet.”

While you have been lamenting older age, very popular younger musicians are playing the banjo again.

“Mumford and Sons” and “American Authors” both feature them.

I have numerous guitars, and I also have and play the mandolin and the banjo. For some reason every time I play my banjo, I feel like I’m suppose to remove a couple of teeth first???

Never underestimate the banjo.

Flogging Molly has a full-time banjo player as well. Well, almost full-time, as he does play mandolin (another chick magnet) once in a while...
