The government is serious about this. Look at the guy in the ad. That is his serious face.

Edit: A state university made this so I'd say it's not official yet, hint hint

and I'm thinking that's not a REAL banjo player .....

As a banjo player, I find that ad offensive.

If they want to make an ad defending banjo players as normal folks instead of hicks that only play "Dueling Banjos", then I'd be behind it.

I refuse to learn that stupid song.

I prefer my banjo as part of my southern metal:

I don't normally like Zakk Wylde (he can play the E36 M3 out of a guitar, but his voice bothers me).... however, that is the JAM right there.
