THANK YOU!! I've been watching so many videos on this song and this is the first that didn't make me want to pull my hair out. You are a great teacher!

Best instructional video I've ever looked at. Cripple Creek seemed WAY beyond me until watching this. It's still rough, but I can play it so that it sounds like a song. Thank you for this!

Amazing! Thank you for taking us through this. Even your singing the phonetic instructions helped the timing and pace of each action. That helped to get it down, and feel each bit. Suddenly, I could play all the way to the B part, without tab (which is an incredible feat for me.) and suddenly, I could play Cripple Creek. Mind blown. Thank you so much, Hilarie. So very appreciated. (Just subscribed to support you on Patreon. Well earned too. Boom!)

Thank you so much for all of your videos, I have just found your channel and after 17 years of playing the guitar, i am excited to start my banjo adventure.
I really appreciate the time you put in to teaching :)

Great lesson, I'm a complete beginner, so getting the song broken down like that is so helpful. Thank you

Wonderful instruction! I’ve been hesitant to learn hammer-ons, pull-offs and slides but this was a fun and friendly intro to them. Can’t wait to check out your Patreon content! ☺️
