Welcome @CalebEllis. I really enjoyed your entry for the Auld Lang Syne contest back around New Years.

Thanks!
I loved doing that with my brother Ben!
I also really enjoyed your family’s entry! That was awesome!
I thought for sure after watching it that y’all would win right up there on top of @Mason_Crone😂

Haha thanks! We watch it back now and think that the music is pretty good, but the humor is SO awkward. We did it at literally 11pm New Year’s Eve and the humor clip was all Take 1. We just wanted to make Banjo Ben laugh but it’s just so ridiculously silly - and has the most views of any video on our band channel. :see_no_evil::rofl: It was fun though. We didn’t get that many votes because we didn’t go around asking every person in the world we’d ever contacted to enter every email address they’d ever had, as I imagine some people probably did. :joy: Not like we needed the prize instruments anyway so it didn’t matter. It was just fun to be a part of Ben’s contest!

“Auld Lang Syne!! You know that song right??”

Stop it. :joy: That isn’t even the most awkward part.

We were all hit by a wave of horror when Jamie Harper, fiddle player with Sideline, walked up to us after the awards show at SPBGMA and said, “I was thinking I recognized you guys! I saw your Banjo Ben Auld Lang Syne video.”

Hey, nothing to be ashamed of.
I personally felt very honored when some drunk dude under a tent at Galax was like “Hayy! You make those funny bluegrass videos on YouTube?”

No I still like it, it’s just that I look so mean barging in the room shoving everyone’s phones from them… and why are they all just standing around texting in the first place?!… and our dad doesn’t know what to call a guitar so he says “take this flat top box thing or whatever it’s called” - it’s definitely hilarious!

I knew I wasn’t gonna win, I was surprised I made finals. Mine wasn’t very creative haha. I agree, my favorite was Headin Home’s.

You should wear a GoPro at all times and then make a compilation of every time that happens. :joy:

Yeah, I think that was a big part of it. I was surprised, the Cotton Pickin’ Kids could’ve EASILY won if they would’ve shared it on their YouTube community page, but they didn’t. I got like 80 votes, which was pretty much all friends and relatives I think :joy:

So at our church’s contemporary service this weekend we sang the song “Drenched in Love” which incorporated the traditional gospel song “Power in the Blood”. Thanks to this forum thread every time the song referenced “power, power, wonder working power” my mind opened to this memory.
