Welcome to what is (for me anyway) the most entertaining online forum I've ever run across. Great pictures, videos, discussions. If you like this sort of thing, you'll definitely find this to be the sort of thing you like!
Thanks for the welcome to Minstrel Banjo. I live in southeast Pennsylvania, (Tamaqua) and have been playing clawhammer style banjo for about a year and enjoy singing. Have worked out a handful of songs; Hard Times, Old Joe Clark, Southern Soldier, Oh Susanna, etc. Would love to play Civil War era minstrel style with some period minded folks at reenactment events. Don't know any one right near where I live. Gettysburg is ~2 hours west. Know anybody up this way?
Look forward to learning more about minstrel banjo.
