on 8/2/2008 Hi my names tony. I am learning allot on your videos. I am new to playing the banjo and one thing I have not seen yet is the proper way to hold a banjo. I didn't know the proper technique if there even is one. If you could post a video or leave some feedback to me I would greatly appreciate it.
