I was born with my BOOTS on.

That’s not that bad. When it was just me and my older sister (she was the boss), she would dress me in a pink dress, give me a pink baby doll, and a pink stroller; and we played house. We would play that for 1,000,000,000 times every year. Then my younger sister was born, that was even more fun! When I found out my mom was having another baby, I prayed EVERY night for a boy. Thankfully, my prayer was answered, but I still have only one brother and four sisters.

I have taught them Thomas the Train is fun to play with, too.

I may or may not have a traumatic flashback in the archives of my memories that has to do with my sisters putting 3 year old me in a princess dress and then us walking down the stairs trying to opera sing while my mom takes pictures.

The worst is getting your picture in a pink dress.

I saw this meme earlier today and I just thought this fit the “banjo joke structure” (I think a banjo on a picnic table would actually attract more camping neighbors, at least I would stick around)

I’d be inclined to park next the tuba people too. That could be some epic fireside picking (and blowing)

There are lots of IBMA videos on my channel y’all can check out, but I thought I’d share the funniest one here! I imagine everyone who watches Banjo Ben’s videos has also seen Lessons With Marcel.

Libby, well done!!!

And that is my expert opinion! (I’ve pranked a few in my lifetime, too.)

Revenge, I hear? Better watch out for any fishy notices from “Jake Workman”…

@Flatpickin_Libby That’s some world class pranking! Back in my college days, I sent out so many fake prank letters I got in trouble with the college dean. Still worth it!

Hahaha. I am not normally known for doing this type of thing. In fact, I don’t think I ever have before. But this just came to me when they were asking me to help them secretly drag the plant in without the security guard seeing. Besides, Marcel is a real clown and pranks other people all the time.

I have to be honest, @Tim_C. I have been learning fiddle for a few months, and that is probably a pretty accurate representation of what I play :crazy_face:

Definitely!!! Another one is to go up the major scale from the root and then stop at the seventh. For Example:


I probably wouldn’t say that those scales annoy musicians; I would say that those are if you are trying to be really mean to one.
