Hi, gang.

Steve from Manchester, here. New to the group, site and bg banjo. Currently under the tutelage of Mr Trischka and eager and terrified in equal measure to get involved with local jams and other players as soon as possible.

Look forward to interacting with you,

Steve.

	alfiedog says: 10/1/2017 1:16:32 PM Welcome to uk5 Steve :) Where do you live in Manchester ? I live in east Manchester Stalybridge to be precise, and attend several local pick's, and run a pick every other thursday night at the wharf tavern, it's open to any standard of player, and you would be made most welcome. Hope to see you there.
