Grey Street on 12-string

I heard a rumor that Dave was actually playing a banjo during spoon, and if you listen closely I think it actually sounds almost kinda like banjo.

Is thread on its 5th page yet???????????

God I hope so :roll:

thats not a banjo, a banjo has more like a hollow steel sound. dave definetly plays a 12-string, you cant get that sound on a banjo, despite the rumors

I think gravedigger was just kidding, DMBFreak...

We all know that the banjo should be left to Bela Fleck.

i figured as much, and yeah, fleck is the man, freakin electric banjo, he is so cool, victor wooten is the man even more than fleck though (ive only been to two of their concerts but i have a few on cd)

I thought I heard him say something about "I know most of you might not think this is your favorite version of this song but I'm gonna play it with the spoons..............

I always though he played it on a 12 string to. I saw him in Atlanta, and he played a 12 string. It was pretty cool, because he popped a couple strings and kept on going, but anywho...ya i always thought it was on a 12 string...
