I had to check out the blog of our first bona fide follower, and found lots of very cool and funny stuff there, including a video clip of three young brothers who comprise a mean bluegrass trio, The Sleepy Man Banjo Boys. This clip is from an appearance on Letterman last May.
Letterman seems to enjoy their performance, but can't help being a teeny bit of a left-lib jackass (gotta make fun of them plaid-wearing hillbillies!). He takes a little dig at (how brave of him) the youngest of the three. Which kind of shows how clueless the increasingly decrepit Letterman is getting. First of all, Dave, don't presume to give anyone advice about girls. Ever.
And secondly: yes, by gum, chicks dig the banjo.

Your God-daughter wants to learn the banjo. She's starting out with the guitar first. Unfortunately I think her motivations is Taylor Swift (or, as I like to call her, 'Twayla') rather than the uber-cwooool Avetts.
