Texino Takes Charge!
Non Player to rule.

Words from the deep caves of Kentucky, the true home of Bluegrass, have verified that T.Texino has taken charge of the "Banjo Element" of the questionably popular but truly American music style.

Although stories differ almost all agree that Panamanian immigrant, Tomas B. Texino is the new Director of Banjo Doctrine and Protocol, a position that places the middle aged canal worker and religious scholar in complete charge of all matters to do with the the hybrid contraption. Texino, as he prefers to be called has not been available to comment; however, sources close to the subject predict that it will not be an easy road for the new director. "For one thing, he don't even play a banjo" says long time Texino watcher and highly educated singer/songwriter David S. Dowling of Flora-lina. Dowling, who gained recognition as "The Two Town Man" in the 90s predicted "Bad Blood and heartache" would ensue.Banjo FAQ


Proposed Banjo Palace & HQ

South Georgia to be home to new Banjo HQ.
Water rights and foster care major issues in choosing location.

Pentangle, GA. Local residents of this small town hard by the Okefenokee are at a loss to explain what could be called good fortune or a Yankee trick depending on who you ask. Either way, the proposed construction of The Banjo World HQ. and African Experimental Church certainly has everyones attention. "Right now, I'd say they have put nothing on the table and nothing in the ground." said Town Mayor Collier Good in a cell phone interview. "Personally, I think it's Indians, you know Natives, pushing some kind of Bingo parlor and I'm elected to stop that sort of thing. People are just here to live and die" he added.

Not Bingo

The artist conception looks a lot like the famous Taj Mahal but Tomas Texino, new director of Banjo matters for Bluegrass Music insists that the proposed Banjo Palace and HQ for African Religious Studies has nothing to do with bingo. "It's just a fancy place to administer banjo legislation and study bush doctoring and reanimation" said Texino.When asked to comment on the rumors that he does not play the banjo, Texino, as he likes to be called produced a multi colored ball from his pants and bounced it off the floor causing the ball to light up and make all manner of noise like a car alarm. Texino then put the ball away with a gesture that seemed to indicate that the case was closed and went on to say that he had a 'Mahal' to build and no time for 'plunking on a damn bango'. "Besides" the handsome former boxing champ quipped,"there's always someone better than you." Texino then told the old story about the banjo kid in that movie deliverance , insisting that the boy was real and just happened to be hanging around the set and that there were more banjo players in Georgia than mayflies in May.
