I did a St. Patrick's gig a few years ago where we started the second set of the evening with 5 banjos and a bodhran, just for the craic. It just happens to be that 4 of the members of the band play banjo as well as their other instruments, and we pulled an "audience member" (the husband of one of the band members) to be the 5th. It was a bit of a racket, but the crowd got a kick out of it...
Banjopalooza!
Banjopalooza!
Now this is the way it should be done!

We called it the "banjo bullies" set.

Re: Banjopalooza!
(Oh, and we introduced the bodhran as a "neckless banjo")
