If Bob really wanted to play an instrumental that would make me happy, he should have stuck with "Dueling Banjos"


You have no idea how much I DESPISE that song, do you?  :x


because...? why exactly? Be specific and back up your argument with examples.


Awesome scene from a classic movie, and damn fine picking as well, what's to despise?


methinks Gaz has "issues" with anything remotely Southern (see: Lynyrd Skynyrd).


I don't associate it with the South as such (especially as I've never seen the film).  But I'm not a bluegrass fan in general, and in this case I simply find the melody unlistenable.  It's like chewing tinfoil.
