One of my other hobbies.... Bluegrass Guitar (Video)

Another hobby I enjoy besides watches is playing bluegrass guitar. Here's a video of me playing guitar I uploaded on YouTube recently: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XJDxJo-foKE. I'm wearing my DJII in the video but you can't see it very well.

Do we have any other musicians? Any bluegrass musicians?

I changed the original thread due to the first reponse. I checked, and there is indeed another thread for hobbies other than Rolex.

Awesome. I like bluegrass, I think when I`m older I will play MORE of it. I`ve tried to play it before... HERE. I only tried that one time, more interested in other types of music at the moment, but I think bluegrass is something that grows on you.

Sounds good, the intro reminds me of a three piece band on YouTube performing "Aimee" ...

Me me me. Old-time and bluegrass mandolin. Nice job on the guitar there. I thought you might want to know about someone who has a really different approach to the whole project: he picks bluegrass guitar with a thumbpick and fingerpick, not a flatpick. This is my friend Wayne Henderson, a world-famous guitar maker and player...watch out.

Nice video! I will refrain from posting a video of my meager guitar skills (started lessons last month and totally loving it!). I am getting a Martin D15M, I might have to have a photoshoot with my SubC and the new guitar.

Keep up the great playing!

Sounds very good Chris, I'm not really into bluegrass but I love playing guitar (especially blues and rock).

Hope to see more videos!
