    To explain! My wife is a classical musician and I wanted to start recreating video game themes. So we gathered the best we could find and arranged and performed this. I'd really like to create more of these though which is why we introduced RUclips memberships to help out!
    This is a thank you for those who watched the Banjo Kazooie charity stream too.

    The banjo in the intro comes too early, and he's playing the pull offs wrong the rest of time when that part is repeated, except here 0:55 which leads me to believe that the sheet was written wrong, OR that he played correctly, but the lighter notes were EQ'ed out by mistake.
