I got involved with bluegrass after being asked to help out a banjo player to help with his timing(he's being playing for four years or so) after six months of playing rhythm fell in love with flatpicking, now i'm practicing up to 2hrs a day to try and catch him up.I can playfour or five tunes up to about 180 bpm. I started at 68 by the time i get 100 i maybe as good tony rice?
