Funny you posted this yesterday. My wife and I went to get something to eat last night and discovered that Tuesday nights at J. Gilligans are acoustic celtic music jam night. About ten or twelve feet from our table were two fiddlers, a guitarist, two bodhran player, a guy with a concretina, a mandolinist, and a guy who played a tenor banjo with a flatpick.
I'd never seen anyone play a banjo with a pick before. It was ... odd.
But they sounded great. I may have to brush up on my celtic music and go sit in.
