    Very nice Scott! Im a mandolin player that spent many years with banjo.com and I have great memories of that and love the banjo dearly so this just seems natural for this to take place. Great job!😏👍

    It's great to have a sister site to the Mandolin Cafe for those of us who swing both ways, LOL!

    Great to have a site for the "Dark Side" where we can talk about 5 strings instead of 8. I just started two social groups for OME and Nechville banjos so feel free to participate.

    Never woulda sold my banjer if I knew this site was on deck. Ah well, most people think I play a 8 string curly que mini banjo anyway. Let think what they want.

    O.K., I have decide this is not likely to be an April Fools gag, So here I am. How about a Fiddle Cafe then?

    Thanks Scott! I don't play banjo yet, but I have a Billybilt open back on its way to me. I'm looking forward to giving it a try.

    Wow! As a long term mandolin cafe member. I appreciate the new banjo cafe. I've never been drawn to the other banjo sites. Too hard to navigate.
    Cheers!

    Re: Welcome!

    Well, I started my musical life on guitar, and still love picking country blues and do it every day; then I picked up mandolin which I am now in love with as well and play every day; and now a buddy of mine is selling his banjo to me because he's buying a really nice one...so when I saw this on mandolin cafe I figured I'd join. Here's the advice I really need as I start...not "clawhammer vs Scruggs" or "which beginner banjo" or "best instructional dvd" but "how can I quit my job so I have time for all this and still support my family?" If anyone has an answer to that one, I'd really appreciate it!

    Re: Welcome!

    OK. I'm on board! Love the mandolin cafe, so I'm sure I'll like the banjo cafe, too. I already like the way classifieds from each site are all linked together...nice!

    At first I thought this site was an April Fool's prank.
    I guess it's not. Time for a "walk-about" and check it out.

    Like many others I too thought this was an April Fools joke but I'm sure glad it's not! I'm brand new to the banjo, recently traded my last remaining electric guitar for a Gold Tone BG -250f, it was too great a deal to pass up! Having a lot of fun learning & practicing rolls. Oddly enough I had just wished that the 'other' banjo site were more like the Mandolin Cafe & bam here ya be! Mind blown! (You fellas ain't with the government is ya? I'm putting my tin foil hat back on just in case!)

    Thanks to all who worked to bring this site to us banjo players. I play clawhammer on a superb Reiter Grand Concert (the pic below shows a Ramsey Woody I once had) and 3-finger style on a Nechville Phantom. I'm a member of several music forums, all under the same user name. Best of luck to Banjocafe!

    The site looks great! This will be a big hit. Hope it's ready for all the traffic

    It also inspired me to fix the fifth string nut on my banjo and try again at learning clawhammer, got the nut fixed, but got a long way to go before I can claw and hammer
