Came across this on Twitter... Foggy Mountain Breakdown with Earl Scruggs and a cast of a few.
One thing I noticed was there seemed to be an African-American player in the queue who never got to play. I may be wrong there, I could have listened back to check but my ears were bleeding.

That takes me back, just as Anji was the right of passage piece on the guitar, Foggy Mountain Breakdown (or Orange Blossom Special, oh and the Ballad of Jed Clampett) were your right of passage pieces for Banjo. The left hand is easy, it's not getting your picking fingers knotted together that is the trick, but it's easier than it sounds.
