Just received from Trevor Hyett:

I'm looking into the possibility of organising 3 workshops to coincide with the (More) Growling Old Men on tour. Their last gig is in London on Friday September 23, and so I'm looking at putting something together for the next day, Saturday Sept 24.

At this stage, I'm just testing the water to see who might be interested in an intermediate/advanced day-long workshop on banjo with LEON HUNT; mando with BEN WINSHIP and guitar with JOHN LOWELL

Until I know how many folk are interested, it's difficult to offer more detail, but let's say - for now - a 6 hour day which might look something like this:

Session 1 12.00 - 13.30 - tuition

Break 13.30 - 14.00 - queries, loose ends, tea

Session 2 14.00 - 15.30 - tuition

Break 15.30 - 16.00 - queries, loose ends, tea

Session 3 16.00 - 17.15 - tuition

Plenary 17.20 - 18.00 - feedback &/or Tutor Tunes????

My guess is that we may well be able to extend the event into the evening, but we haven't got that far yet! Nor can I offer any idea of costs. To some extent that might depend on the level of interest. Let me know whether you might be interested, no commitment, just give me an idea of how well such a workshop might be received.

Look forward to hearing from you.
