“Thousands Are Sailing” on 6 string banjo

So Fox & the Red Hares has our annual St Patrick’s Day show coming up, and we’ve never actually had banjo in there. Banjo is a big part of traditional Irish music, but I already play too many different instruments in that set to add banjo in there.

But everybody else plays guitar… And I saw this 6 string banjo at work the other day. It’s tuned just like a guitar, so if you play guitar, you can play this thing.

I made this video so the other guys could hear it and check it out, but I might as well share it with everybody!

What do you think? Does Fox & the Red Hares need to add some banjo to the mix?
