Hi Earl
Just a message from another North Carolina (Cherry Point-1953)boy who was raised in California. I have enjoyed your music since I was a kid and still am inspired by it. I have played guitar since '66 and banjo since about that time. Last year I got the opportunity to get banjo lessons from Herb P here in LA. Having a great time finally learning to play "right." He has a lot of great stories about you. Never seen you play live, hope to get the chance someday. Take good care of yourself and keep up the great music.
