That kind of playing has to be every banjo player's dream, it definitely does it big time for me. Wonderful. I've often wondered by such playing how far can one vary the bar(s) that one is playing with such licks - would it be fair to say Enda that one adds such licks according to how the tune moves one?, and that there are no rules, so to say?
It's like you've in a nutshell provided all possible ornamentations. For the past while I had been thinking that I'd better start practising each ornamentation one by one you had given us until now and wondering when I would be automatically inspired to throw in a few hammer ons and pull-offs, etc in other tunes. After this last video I feel I'll find it a lot lot easier to do so. Thanks very much, wonderful work.
That was a really fun lot o' lesson in a little lesson. I wish I had more time for practicing, I'd definitely get on your Patreon. Have you interviewed BB Bowness yet? I'd love to hear you two talk about banjo together. Your playing is incredible in so many ways, keep it up.
Hi Enda. I notice you are using the Clareen Oyster for a lot of your recent videos. Is it because you like that particular banjo or would you rate the oyster up there with the elite and dave boyles? Thanks.
The Oyster with the Renaissance head has been a revelation to me. I love it, very warm and deep tones and great playability. And my favourite inlay too!
With all the variations, during a trad session, when do you start to pull them out? Simple variations while just playing along and more complex when taking the lead?
There isn’t really a “lead” situation in a trad session. Everyone plays the tune together but not in lockstep. The variations are used by many players and often slightly differing ones at the same time. Great musicians will listen to another’s variations and mirror them. That’s fun!

Are we voting? Dig Number 20, always love those bass runs! And on that front, Number 32 with those double stop responses is fantastic. Ooh, and 39.
Always looking for bass runs!
Very cool! New things for me to learn! Thank you!
You’re welcome, thanks for watching!

I was never a great man for following rules anyway!!!! It’s like learning different words in a language, you can slot them in in different moods

Not yet but a great suggestion!
Great stuff, Enda! Thanks for all your hard work and great content. SO many tasty licks and for what it's worth I'm giving my vote to #14! 👍
Awesome! Thank you!
