I have played both lead in a rock band, quite some time ago, and rhythm and some lead in varying rolls in acoustic groups. I have a group I play with from time to time, but they don't/can't play enough, and I want to do more, and play with different musicians in different settings that will push me. I have played guitar forever, but lately have been fascinated with playing banjo, and am getting to the point where I could accompany competently--rapidly making progress.
