THE BRONX ZOO HAS AN AFRICAN LION, that was good. And was that the Millennium Falcon sitting on the bedside table? Nice 5 string banjo the kid was playing. trivia question of the day, who invented the 5 string banjo? As Gary Lloyd said, "When the government’s boot is on your throat, whether it is a left boot or a right boot is of no consequence."
Hmmmm....not a clue, and I don't want to google. Let's see if someone else knows :) THE BRONX ZOO HAS AN AFRICAN LION, Whoa! Those kids were tight. Break the Conventions - Keep the Commandments - G.K.Chesterson Early, African-influenced banjos were built around a gourd body and a wooden stick neck. These instruments had varying numbers of strings, though often including some form of drone. The five-string banjo was popularized by Joel Walker Sweeney, an American minstrel performer from Appomattox Court House, Virginia. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ I had no idea that they were African in origin. Break the Conventions - Keep the Commandments - G.K.Chesterson Well it seems the information I had was incorrect. I was always told Scruggs invented it. Seems it predates him.

Lester was back there, but not that far back.
Break the Conventions - Keep the Commandments - G.K.Chesterson Cool! That is some good music.
