Picks are cheating. Real banjo players don't use picks.  | |||

I wouldn't say that. She is talented, but 3 finger picking makes it easy to put out a lot of notes fast and sound flashy. Foggy Mountain Breakdown is the epitome of flashy 3 finger picking. | |||

Earl Scruggs was as real a banjo player as ever lived, and he used a thumbpick and two fingerpicks. He practically invented that kind of playing. That girl is very good and a pleasure to hear, but she isn't extraordinary. HenryAZ is right, three finger picking sounds faster than it is, because three fingers are doing the work. I'm not saying it isn't impressive, but any good fingerpicking banjo player can do that. The fish is mute, expressionless. The fish doesn't think because the fish knows everything. | |||

Foggy Mountain Breakdown, clawhammer style: ETA, updated because the original embedded video now requires a login. Here it is clawhammer style, on a fretless banjo no less. He starts out 3 finger picking, Scruggs style but without picks, then switches over to Clawhammer. Link to original video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ADgKHO5UuNI This message has been edited.

Yes, just what I needed on a cold and snowy morning. “I don’t want some ‘gun nut’ training my officers [about firearms].” — Unidentified chief of an American police department. “I can’t give you brains, but I can give you a diploma.” — The Wizard of Oz This life is a drill. It is only a drill. If it had been a real life, you would have been given instructions about where to go and what to do. | |||
