Damn it where did these tears come from? I literally only now found this guys page by accident. Only to then google and find out he's gone. Truly an amazing artist and I simply wished he had more love on his channel.
Oh, a sailor's life is The life for me How I love to sail o'er The bounding sea And I never, never, Ever do a thing about the weather For the weather never Ever does a thing for me! Oh, a sailor's life is the life for me Tiddle-ee-um pom pom Deedle dum dum dee
The world is so much poorer now that Dave has left us. I thank God Almighty for allowing Dave to grace our presence for the time allotted him; his mastery and showmanship of the five-string banjo was nothing short of joy for the eyes and ears. May your soul now rest in peace.
Blimey ! This is one VERY enjoyable video ! You play a mean banjo Dave, the song is stirring and those gals are a couple o' cuties ! What's not to love ? Well done, sir ! Kudos ! THANX for sharing ! CHEERS, mate ! :-)
Finding a gem of a video like this on TH-cam makes all the junk I've sat through worthwhile. Great musicianship along with great spontaneous choreography ... what's not to like. RIP Dave.
Hi dave Im trying to learn the 5 string banjo The sailors Hornpipe has always been a favorite of mine since a kid. I am now 78 and Im determined to be able to play it Many Thanks Dave. If you'll pardon the expression Its Music to my ears. A very big Thank you - Doug from Clacton Essex
Heard this on classic fm the other day and it always reminds me of the proms ( SPITFIRE PROMS) so that brings me to youtube and onto your vid. Great job Dave and great job to the dancers too. :-) ps i would have put a pound in the box.
You know you're seeing something special when kids spontaneously start dancing.
I certainly have a notion to second THAT emotion !! :-)
It's the highest honor a street musician can recieve.
R.I.P. Dave, one of the greatest banjo players of all times.
Big thumbs up for the Banjo Babes….Priceless.
@@jamestoni uhhhhhhhhhhhh i dont think he meant it like that bro

Those passers-by had no idea what a gem of a person was playing before them. And we praise Lebron James and Brad Pitt....
I'll bet that God made a special 5 string harp just for you,Dave
Bloody great , with dancers too .... RIP Dave
The Sailor's Hornpipe is a joyous sound that travels into the ear and down one's legs.

When I played banjo in Harvard Square in the '70s, I attracted the same amount of interest as Dave did here.
This guy should have played Carnegie Hall. He is a master of the instrument.

Descansa en paz Dave. Mientras tu música sigue haciendo bailar ángeles en el cielo y en la Tierra.

The best part are the two girls.

Like Steve Martin said, banjos play happy tunes.
Pedestrians just bustle through, but lighthearted friends create a moment to remember forever.
Mighty Dave
