DEERING BANJOS GOES TO MUSIKMESSE FRANKFURT
The Deering Banjo Company, the largest manufacturer of American made banjos in the world, will be exhibiting at the Musikmesse Frankfurt show from March 28-31 this year. With a select display of their premium quality banjos, Janet and Greg Deering will be at the show to meet and greet the over 90,000 dealers, artists, and visitors that come through the multi-level complex that comprises this international trade show. As a special treat to visitors, the Kruger Brothers Band will be on site at the Deering exhibit to play throughout the show. Jens Kruger, the world-renown banjo player in the Kruger Brothers Band, is part of the research and development team at Deering Banjos, along with company founder, Greg Deering. Together they have taken the ever popular Deering banjos to an even greater level of quality craftsmanship, enhanced tone, and ease of playability. Visit them at Musikmesse Frankfurt exhibit number Hall 3.1, F-92..
Though a select offering, the banjos on display will give visitors to the trade show a good idea of the broad range of banjos made by Deering Banjos. Among the banjos that will be on display will be the Classic Goodtime banjos in both tenor and 5 string styling, the very popular Crossfire electric banjo, the Boston 6-string, played like a guitar, and a Black Diamond Long Neck. In addition, Vega fans will enjoy seeing the Vega Professional tenor and the Vega Little Wonder in both the 5-string and 17-fret Irish tenor version.
The highly acclaimed Tenbrooks model Saratoga Star can be seen as well. Traditionalists will enjoy playing the Golden Era, Hartford, and Sierra models. Though limited, the selection of banjos is well chosen to appeal to a broad range of both playing styles and tone preferences.

Banjos in the Navy

I was telling an old friend about an Eddie Peabody video that I saw on YouTube (Tiger Rag). It was an early 1940's video with members of the Navy Band. My friend played guitar in the navy band during that time and was friends with Eddie. He told me that he would often go over to Eddies house and they would record tunes on some device he called a "wire recorder". I was wondering any other videos exsist of Eddie and the navy band during the early 1940's as my friend would probably be on them and love to see them. Also would any of you happen to know who might have copies of any of those old recordings?
Thanks.
Jim McDowell.
