  • I know the name of only two people in this jam session; McCoy Borg, the banjo player & Josh-mandolin.. I think the woman playing bass is from Ohio. Spring Festival @ Townsend, TN 5-5-12.

    Buddy, I've been playing bluegrass banjo\guitar as a second for most of my life. I'm 28 now, started around 11. So I have heard people playing this tune many times over the years but the Cherokee shuffle just never made much sense. After listening to you pick this maybe 20 times it absolutely inspired me to get my mastertone out and try this one again. I really dig your style with all the pull offs and melodic stuff, then the guy playing mandolin right after with the more simplified melody really helped me figure this one out. Thanks brother, I have no clue where your at or If ya still pick but I would sure like to sit down with you one evening.

      God I love the snappy crack of the banjo, I have an identical banjo, well not the same one but one that looks the same but does not sound like that one, maybe I need a new rim, or maybe I need submerged strings or Chinese finger picks. watcha rekon? and it does not end there. Today I bought a pair of Schallers all I have to do now is figure out how to use them. Stand up the person who said she has more money than brains?
