@FisherKD, @banjoboyk, I am assuming breaks, I am unsure of instruments.
@theChristiancowgirl, @SPilot8319, @GraceS, and any others I have not mentioned of forgot, want to participate?

Am I supposed to play the banjo backup too, or is someone else doing that? Probably just vamping over the chords would be best

That would be good. It would be really cool if you could do Earl Scruggs ā€œBoogie Backupā€ for a couple.

Will do. Oh, and also I think 2 banjo solos are normally played at the beginning of FMB.

I havenā€™t come up with an order of breaks yet, but you probably have a better idea where stuff should go, so if you could do that, that would be great.

Just keep in mind thereā€™s eight and a half entire break lengths on the track (each entire break is two time through) so some might have to split breaks

I donā€™t know very good backup on dobro unfortunately :smirk:. Iā€™ll see if I can come up with something but there might not be dobro backup.

Maybe just sliding into each chord?

Chop chords on the Dobro should be fine :+1:

I donā€™t wanna clash with the mandolin. The biggest problem is I canā€™t chop very well.

I am adding @SPilot8319 to this thread.

We are going to remotely (via the internet) create a couple mixes (Salt Creek and Foggy Mountain Breakdown) for everyone on BBC to enjoy. Let me know what breaks you want on each song.

Hey thanks so much, Gunnar! I really appreciate it! I should be able to learn this pretty easily. Great tutorial!
Iā€™m not sure if I will get to your arrangement of FMB on the guitar or not. I donā€™t have a ton of time. @Kevin_S sent me his tab which I adapted a bit. That seems a little easier and I will probably be able to learn it faster, but you never know. If I get some time, I will watch your video and see if I can figure it out! This video sure was easy to follow! Great job!
