Probably the first thing I surprised myself spontaneously playing on my bass is Hall of the Mountain King. Parents raised me on classical. I listened to pop on my own.
I was thinking...Y’all could play this li’l tune fer yr grand babies an such.

I very much remember Blatz beer. It was a staple around where I lived among the cheapest beer you could find crowd
That sounds wonderful.
A very nice ambience.
Who knew the best place to play the banjo was out in the woods?
Makes me glad there are no trees near my house!
Years ago, there were ticket in life that ensured that you’s be rich. Like owning a McDonalds franchise. That ship has sailed. These days microbreweries are the path so a lot of investors are getting into it. Wineries require more dedication and investment but the payoff is big. I see farmers moving into wine, both apple and grape. Setting up destination centers for families and groups.
One microbrewery in the country that I’d pass on the weekend started small and was constantly expanding. The facility is huge now. They offer an extensive line and have distribution. Despite the crazy high cost of their beer, on the weekends people have to park on side roads and walk a distance to get there. Motorcycle clubs like to tour these sort of places, they show up in the hundreds. Maybe all that will change.
Prolly the 'back 40' at his house.That sounds wonderful.

On a semi-serious note, banjos were/are used as the chord instrument in street corner Dixieland bands because of their projection. Much louder than an acoustic guitar. And lighter than a piano.

Looking at what to my eye appears to be a bluejay, and I don't know beans from bongos about avian taxonomy. Surely there's a market for bongo beans? Or bongo beanies? Gonna take a pass.

There was such a thing as a Gibson Bass Banjo in the 30's (1930-1933). Why it never caught on is anyone's guess.

That's uniquely disquieting
Note the sign pleading DO NOT TOUCH!. Nobody must play the bass banjo.
Ah, the immortal(almost)Maynard G. Krebs-my spirit......uh...animal?
