DBB MEMBERS PARTICIPATE IN AN INTERNATIONAL BANJO COLLAGE-
In alphabetical order: Bill Cude, Jack Pavuk, Harold Poole, And Teri Ann Rogers played Shostakovich's Second Waltz "virtually" in an Internationa Banjo Orchestra Zoom session.The DBB provided the original arrangement to Steve Caddick, a memberof the Banjo Hall of Fame, for modifying the arrangement for the multiple, worldwide participants.
The same waltz was added earlier to the DBB song list, and can be heard live at our performances
While we're all restricted to our homes, the Band has a weekly ZOOM session on the Internet (as shown in the image above) where we can see each other and exchange ideas, etc.
We've discussed a remote possibility of our next Free Show at the BBQ being July 4, 2020. We will keep everyone advised if this bears fruitiion.
