[N] Hi, guys.
Hey, kids.
How you doing?
Nice to see you.
Thank you, sir.
Great job.
Good to see you as well.
Turn around and let the folks get a good look at everybody.

Sleepy Man, where'd you get the name Sleepy Man?
Where'd that come from?
Banjo is so heavy for him, he used to just lie back
with his eyes closed and just play it like that.
Oh, that's Sleepy Man Banjo Boys.
That's great.
And I'll tell you something you probably know by now,
chicks dig the banjo.
You are printing your own money, my friend.
How old are you?
Uh, nine.
Nine!
And you, how old are you?
Twelve.
Twelve?
What are you doing?
And you're all brothers?
This is not like the Jonas Brothers, is it?
Well, no, it's not.
Listen, great pleasure to have you guys with us.
Good luck.
Have a wonderful summer.
There it is right there, the Sleepy Man Banjo Boys,
American Music.
Good
