These pics and memories are great! Both weeks were stupendous!
Will you all be posting pictures of the Bands from saturday nights contest?
Oh, BTW, I had a blast at camp. Thank you all so much for the fun weekend
Hey Doug! If I understood Ben correctly, his plan is to make the pics and videos of both Saturday nights available to all of the campers. I hope I got that right.
That’s what I heard too.
Yep, we’ll have performance vid/pics headed your way in the next few weeks!
Hey Banjo campers. It has hit me how much I am already forgetting from camp. Does anyone remember what the app that Katie said she uses to slow down audio?
That was it. Thank you
Glad ya’ll had such a good time!.. And thanks to all who have posted pictures and videos!!! It brings those of us who couldn’t go to the camps a little closer to each of you and gives us a tiny feeling of what it was like to be there!
Just one question… Did anyone get to play Kenny’s vintage D-18? If I remember correctly, it’s a '39 and he got it about the time he and Amanda were getting married or had just gotten married. A really good deal came up and Amanda suggested he get that instead of a wedding ring! (Must have been quite a ring, I’m thinking instead a house to live in)! Anyway, not sure if I got the story exactly right or not, someone correct me if you know better than I do.
So, did anyone play it or at least hear it up close in a quiter environment?
Gunnar did. It’s highly likely he played every instrument on Ben’s property at one point or another. He was like a kid in a candy store… a really, really expensive candy store.
Hey @Dragonslayer, what did you think?
And the kid enjoyed Ben’s riches of graceful instruments??!! But sounds like you were a little concerned, Mark_R, no?!!
I think @Jake said it best. Gunnar was playing a guitar worth more than his entire country. Yeah, just a tad concerned. But hey, it’s Kenny’s guitar. Gunnar asked, and Kenny said Yes, so there you go.
It does not let me post just a smiley alone. So I typed this out.
I know he played the banjo and both guitars in the store, probably all the Northfield mandolins, Ben’s Twanger, both of my instruments, and too many more to list!
I brought 2 mandolins , 2 fiddles, and a tenor banjo. He played (very well I might add) all but the 1 fiddle with no strings, and only bc there wasnt enuff time to mess with that one! I was happy to see those old instruments being played, and play along with them on the mando.
That was awesome Mark great job you guys all sounded great.
Where were you able to get Abby’s family CD?
I just hit her up on Facebook to find an answer for you. I’ll let you know when she replies.
