This is post number one. It ain't much. I would imagine someone asking me, "Greg, why 'Attack of the Blue Banjo?'"

Then I would imagine answering something like this. It has to do with a lake, too much to think, my kids, some paint, and a banjo. There will be no attacks. It's a motivation thing, for me, to write. A symbol of things past and things possible.

The actual blue banjo is in my office and has a long neck (like Pete Seeger played), rusty strings, too many frets and lots of blue paint. Six shades of blue. One-fifth the number of shades I saw on a lake that day.

I'll piece other pieces together later.
