There's my new banjo video, y'all. Like I said myself, if you don't like no Rebel flags, better move along, 'cause I just got my old Confederate banjo head installed on my new Washburn B-17 banjo, and I think it looks awesome, glad I did it! If you hate the flag, well, that's your opinion, we respect it, but don't wanna hear none of it. Anyway, I was hesitatin' because this here is a new fancy banjo, cost me more than a grand and it weights just about 25 pounds - a little intimidating to take apart. Scary even, one scratch and the gold hardware is gone and expensive to replace. But I'm an adventurous feller, and did anyways. Got my old banjo screwdriver, took the whole thing apart and put my proud new Rebel head skin in there. I kid you not, the tension hoop was so tight that I had to hammer it back on with my old cowboy boots! I wrapped up them in a kitchen towel, so I wouldn't damage the gold hardware, of course!!! Lol, but there it is, and it looks even purdier than before! Now I even ordered a custom made Confederate flag cover for my bagpipes as well, so it will go hand in hand with my banjo. And General Lee woulda been proud! The song took me a while to learning, and I'm still fixin' it, but I figured it would be good enough for an upload already and to hell with it! I hope y'all enjoy it nevertheless. It's by far the longest song I've ever worked on. But I got Old Joe Clark in the oven right now and it's an even harder song, but it'll sound mighty good once I'm ...
