So sweet to see jonny standing in the same place as the man who made him love banjo, and then see all the others that were touched by Earl's life. Made me cry.

Some top notch pickers right there

[@mmccrownus2406]

Scruggs was a better man than he was a banjo player. Which is saying a lot, of course.

[@EricEllis-b2m]

I agree and Earl was one heck of a banjo player. When we lost Earl and Doc Watson just 2 months apart we lost two fine men as well as two fine musicians. I'm a banjo player and was the man who made me want to play one.

[@dareisnogod5711]

WHAT A GREAT LOT OF NOISE...NOT MUSIC.

[@janetaldrich7747]
