Gooday Jim I’m the chap from London England who took up banjo 73 years young, needed something to do whilst recovering from cancer, 4 years later having relocated to sunny Devon I enjoy playing in pubs all because I happen chanced on a bloke called Jim Pankey. Best wishes and thanks Jim.
Thank you so much! Taking up the banjo has become such a huge part of my life and it all started for me with the 10 lesson Bluegrass series. It was fun participating in this and you should be so proud - everybody sounded amazing.
I got a banjo for Father’s Day 2024. This video is highly motivating. I’ve never played an instrument and I know nothing about music. I hope I can make it to this video next year! Really great!! Congrats to everyone that is learning here, awesome job.
Thanks Jim for making me a star 🌟 my grandkids all got a kick out of seeing their Pops on UA-cam 😂 know also that you have my sincere thank you for all you've done in allowing me to pursue my passion! Keep on posting and I'll keep on trying 😊
Big well done to jim for this banjo showcase And an evev bigger well done to all the great banjo Players of all levels you should all be so proud Of yourselves. 👏👏
Awesome showcase with talented young players, ladies and men, sometimes starting a late banjo journey, but all giving a well deserved tribute to you Jim 🎉 Amazingly, the tunes played are rarely the same. Thank you Jim for the huge time you may have spent arranging the videos 💯
I cannot thank you enough Jim, you have helped me discover my passion and I play this beautiful instrument everyday with the help of your videos! Thank you so much and keep up the great playing and teaching!
Great job to everyone on here ❤ Good those playing at a higher level, congrats on the practice and the progress! For the beginners, you all did fantastic as well 💯 keep up the practice so you can make the progress! Keep pickin' y'all 🤌🏻
Trevor Holder MIGHT can out-pick the kid in the first video, but that little guy FLAT-OUT knows what he is doing...would love to hear him in about 10 years!! You are a great teacher Jim.
Some real talent in here. Better pick mine up more often. Thankyou Jim . Helped a friend buy 1 recently and put him straight onto your videos and he is loving it too. You must do great on your watch time, youtube probably thinks there is something wrong because of the number of times i replay the things trying to get it right and clean is ridiculous haha.
What a great video! It's fun to see how far everyone is on their journey and how far my personal journey still is😅. Jim, thank you so much for your hard work and all your videos. Maybe one day you'll show us how to play "Big Rock Candy Mountain" or "O Death" Thanks Jim!
it is allowed to send you videos? I've always wanted to send you one, but I never really had the courage. and jim, I would even give you more than 4 euros for the tab: train that carried my girl from town. but i can't find it😅✌️
You're probably the most prolific teacher of banjo on social media.
Thanks
And from one un-reconstructed hippy to (I suspect) to another, one of the mostest funnest ones.
Gooday Jim

Indeed!
Oh, me perdí esto. Me habría encantado participar.... Y eso que tengo activada la campana desde el primer día 😢
Maybe next time!
Great stuff Jim. Thanks for being there. I really am a southpaw, btw.

Jim can you do a teaching on Freeborn man please ? Can't find one anywhere ? Thank you .
Were you waiting for me to ask lol wow what timing

@@davidstanich9369 Your timing was impeccable :)
Hey Jim! Do you offer online private lessons?
Nope.
Very cool. Exciting!

@JimPankey I wouldn't be pickin' if not for you Jim. Thank you friend. 😊
Nice showcase, only wish I seen some Jim Pankey T-shirts on the players. I wish I'd submitted a video. Next time!
Thanks!
that kid doing Theme Time was incredible!
YES!!
Theme Time! I couldn’t remember the name of that song, and we even used to do it in a bluegrass band I was in back in the early seventies.
time to get the band back together!@@rjwh67220
How can I sign up for classes?
I don't do one on one lessons, but all of my content is free.
Ryan Trahan, that's a youtuber lol
Noticed that too lol
not really an uncommon name...
it is allowed to send you videos? I've always wanted to send you one, but I never really had the courage.
and jim, I would even give you more than 4 euros for the tab: train that carried my girl from town. but i can't find it😅✌️
A couple of months ago I asked my UA-cam subscribers to submit a video if they wanted to be in the showcase.
What a good variety too eh . Like nobody chose the same song
Thanks for watching 😀
What song is it 4:43 ? I will be in that showcase soon...😊
Unclouded Day
