See Jerre's earlier post here. It's all about being in the right place at the right time! Brian Hunsaker

	lawdawg1 says: 6/1/2012 5:54:41 PM I didn't mean to create such a blog .. I am just very happy to be a part of this group ... after 40 years of playing a longneck, I have learned one thing .. I still learn from players who have been playing for less time ... we never get too old to learn ... I appreciate the opportunity to meet guys like Jerre and owning a piece of that past ...
	boulderfolkie says: 6/1/2012 9:48:15 PM such a blog is just fine...we should all keep up with little tidbits like, "At 68 am I too frail to frail? Do I have the patience? Can blue men sing the whites....how long a neck is too long?" and other pressing banjo matters.

	Old Gray Coat Linked by Bluesage 7 months ago: My first attempt at working out this great Tony Rice composition on the open long neck. It lays our pretty well!

MP3: What Would The Prophets Say? Linked by jbakervt 2 years ago: The religious basis of authority in the Middle East (or anywhere for that matter) is the source of a lot of suffering and is unsustainable. The violence is mostly perpetrated on women and children.
MP3: You'll Never Leave Texas Alive Linked by jbakervt 2 years ago: A sad murder ballad of a sort. Some murderers wear nice clothes and use pens and paper to kill and never see their victims.
MP3: Ten Years On Linked by jbakervt 2 years ago: A lament, written for the 10th anniversary of the Sandy Hook school shooting. Sadly there are still parents who are irresponsible or foolish, and parents who suffer as a result.
MP3: Shutdown The System Linked by jbakervt 2 years ago: The pursuit of money is alienating, enervating, and exhausting. Here’s a song of resistance to finance capitalism.
MP3: Take The Wheel Linked by jbakervt 2 years ago: A song about mentorship, inspired by my mentor and HIS mentors too, that takes the form of the story of a ship’s mate being “shown the ropes”. The old sea captain may also have been a long-neck player
