Beginning Blues Workshop
It was a real pleasure having all of you in my class. Thanks so much for your wonderful participation and I'm sure hoping to see you all again along our musical journey.
Also, I'd like to invite all of you to join my Members Club. The info is above on the menu bar.
Below are the tabs and mp3's of the material we covered. I'll be putting up some videos at some point in the future and will let you all know when that's done. Be sure to bookmark this page because it's 'hidden' from the rest of the site.
Finally I'd like to offer you a very special discount that I think would be great if you ever wanted to learn how to fingerpick the blues. You can find that offer below your files.
Once again... I had a BALL with all of you and will hope we'll see each other again down the road.
Stay tuned and play nice..
