| Here, in no particular order, are some of my favourites of the many many links to other banjo and bluegrass related sites. If I've missed a site - keep in mind I don't do a lot of web surfing these days so I might not be aware of yours and I don't want to rip off the link lists from other sites. So, if your site is basically non-commercial and space permitting, drop me an email and I'll be happy to add your listing. If you were hoping to pay me to do this - sorry, there's no charge. In case that upsets you, you could always insist on mailing me one of your autographed CD's if you're a performer... |
