July 06, 2005
"You can't play a sad song on the banjo...it always comes out so cheerful." - Steve Martin
Patrick Costello, along with his "dear old dad", is putting out Pluckthumping, a series of banjo lessons in podcast format. Costello, author of two books on old time banjo playing, is making the free lessons available under a Creative Commons license.
The first banjo workshop podcast is available at http://funkyseagull.com/frail-1.mp3.
The catch is that, after the each workshop goes online, Costello will not publish the next one until at least five people send audio files of themselves playing the "homework" assigned at the end of each lesson.
According to Costello, "The homework assigned at the end of our first banjo lesson podcast came pouring in, so Dear old Dad and I went ahead and put together the second workshop."
