Money for Nothing - Dire Straits - Banjo Cover

[@Nayalamih]

I was just listening to Dire Straits and wondered what it would sound like on a banjo. You, sir, smashed it! That was exactly what I was hoping for. Thank you.

[@banjofy]

Cool! Thank you Ben!

[@wadeparker9685]

Awesome! People forget that one of Earl Scruggs dreams was for the banjo to be played in ALL types of music.

[@Red19UK]

Nice, nice. You sir, are definitely The Man.

[@rpashoukos]

Working on this song and looking to see if there were any covers that didn't use the backing track and yours if the first one I found. This is awesome man, I really enjoyed it.

[@banjofy]

Thank you sir!

[@ToolsAreToys]

Amazing! Any chance you will ever release tabs, or a lesson on how to play this? I recon you would be a great teacher!

[@banjofy]

Thanks Ego! Sorry, I don't have tabs and wish I had time to teach!

[@Pipikins321]

Could I ask how you're tuned for this song? Amazing cover xxx

[@banjofy]

Thank you! Banjo is in standard open G.

[@dominicmoloney2121]

Thats awesome, what tuning were you using? 🪕

[@banjofy]

Thanks! Standard open G (and my 5th is outta tune!)

[@irooi]

Was just listening to Money for nothing on 2x speed then i thought, “holup, this kinda sound like a country folk song now”. So yeah, i accidentally found this cover by trying to annoy my friends

[@banjofy]

haha, that's pretty cool!

I don't remember the original lyrics using the word "creeper". Great cover, though.

[@banjofy]

Thanks!
