I never get tired of this video.

......looking through all the comments (lack of swearing), I'll have to assume it has not been viewed by any teenagers yet.  :D

Ever see his "can't be angry while you play the banjo" bit from SNL?

He is a good banjo player for sure, and his stand up was absolutely great.  I always loved his Grandma's Ditty song, never fails to break me up.

Now you guys know that we have right here in AH with us is a true and verified master of the 5 string banjo.  I met him when he came to AW from AW Mac, he used to be BB, for Banjo Bill, but now he goes by BBAW.  Here's a couple of vids of him from at work doing bluegrass and classical and jazz and ragtime and whatever else, and he is a truly world class banjo player: http://www.youtube.com/user/P47ROCKS#p/u/19/3iPUVhSe3Ds
