I think this band needs a banjo player. I might drop them a line.

What’s the difference between a macaw and a banjo?
One is loud, obnoxious and noisy, the other is a bird.

Aw cum'mon you gotta love duelling banjos.

In a duel, at least one participant dies, so yes.

What's the difference between a banjo and a trampoline?

You take your shoes off to jump on a trampoline.

You may well laugh, our next door neighbour has taken to learning to play the banjo, 11pm last night.

Of course, we could take the strain off the banjo and start the drummer jokes ...
no, another thread, maybe.

Do whatever it takes. No jury would convict.

Hear about the guy who left his banjo on the back seat of his car and the window open? Came back to find an accordian in there with it.

(Full disclosure: I play the 5 string a bit, and the mouth organ. Both seem to be generally reviled by woodworkers!)

 

[Steve Maskery]

What do you call a banjo with no strings?
A step in the right direction.

I think they confuse it with the banjolele; banjo/ukelele cross as played by George Formby, which can certainly get on your nerves!

In fact 5 string banjo is highly regarded in folky open-mike pub session circles.
There's some lovely music for it - Appalachian etc, and it's brilliant for accompaniment with voice or other instruments. It's good in a pub as it cuts through the noise, when a guitar could hardly be heard without an amp.

To any woodworker who is confused as to what a banjo looks like, this is a banjo:

I'll never see Jacob in quite the same light again.

Poor old Jacob, don't take any notice mate

I will survive!
There haven't been any death threats (yet :shock: )

 

[iNewbie]

Pardon?

 

[Bm101]

That's not Jabob. Isn't that the profile pic of that American fella who used to moan a lot about British stuff,any British stuff, on here then left in a huff? Enjoyably I've forgotten his name.

 

[Phil Pascoe]

No. Site 5 wasn't a Yank.

 

[Bm101]

Wait. Really?

Q. How do you tune a banjo?
A. Nobody knows.

Declaration: I have a 5 string banjo.
