This is an excellent suggestion. However, many sites (ours
included) do not get alt.guitar.

So, let's put it on the recnet...

     *** CALL FOR DISCUSSION: Rec.music.banjo ***

I propose the creation of a new newsgroup devoted to
discussions of the banjo. Topics are likely to include:

	1 - Bluegrass banjo
	2 - Jazz banjo
	3 - Discussions of hot banjo pickers
	4 - Swapping hot licks
	5 - Banjo maintenence

I further propose that this group not be moderated, and that the
name of the new group be rec.music.banjo.

According to net guidelines, followup discussion belongs on
news.groups.
