Our end of the year performance will be this SATURDAY at the BUG Jam:
2:00, St James Prebyterian Church, 910 14th St. - downstairs.
Elenke sounds great and it will be fun!

Next week, our final week for this session, we will play Kabak da Boynuma. Practice this first with thumb and then with flat picks. It needs to get lively!
We will also play Give My Regards to Broadway. Practice the chords and think about places that a triplet strum would enhance the song. Also, use a flat pick and try an 8th note tremolo on the half and whole notes.
Remember this week to practice your F and C7 chord shape, moving them up the neck to transpose. use Buffalo Gals, Iko Iko, Jambalaya, He's got the whole world in his hands, or any other 2 chord song to practice this. Also try playing these to chord songs without looking at the paper but just listening for the chord changes.

FEB Book 3 continuation Class - At this time I expect to teach the class on Tuesday) at 5:00 The (new) start date for the 12 week session is February 16.
The cost will be $150.00 for the course. I will send out an email to all of you as soon as I return from Mexico in early Feb.
