The events I enjoy playing at are Civil War Re-enactments, Living History events, or any other festival where old time music is welcomed.  On the minstrel banjo, my favorite tunes are Oh Susanna, Turkey in the Straw, Buffalo Gals, and Old Dan Tucker.  I also have a mountain banjo that I built, and play old time tunes on it.  I like to have visitors to the events to sit down with me and play the wooden spoons or limberjack, while I play the banjo.
