Answer me a question will you.

When playing the banjo, is it mostly played with or without a plectrum?

A mate of mine left a banjo on the back seat when he parked his car in the middle of Liverpool. When he got back someone had broken the back window and thown another one in. :laugh:

I'd guess at finger picking, but wouldn't rule a plec out as such, its probably a real sticking point between some traditionalists and the modern banjo types I reckon....banjo's..... :roll: nearly as bad as drums , no place for them in a folk environment, ugh!I'm orf....frigging no hopers, I'm just not going to listen to it certainly not going to clap, its an outrage

There's actually something called a plectrum banjo, innit? which is presumably played with a plectrum. As opposed to banjos that aren't plectrum banjos. Presumably

Actually, I don't understand the question, tho it's been a bit of fun answering it.
Why is Mr I asking Mr Gremmlin about banjoes? Is it a subtle dig of some kind

That's ok if a song only had one chord although he could use one finger as a bar I suppose and play it like a slide guitar. Alternatively he could have had a double-necked banjo or ukulele that would have looked quite rock and roll.
