Thanks to Tom and Tim for talking about this event.
I want to make sure you all know about the upcoming Dobro Intensive
weekend that is part of the Port Townsend Slide & Steel Workshop that
I am curating. It takes place this July 10-13 in Port Townsend WA. I
think we have a great group of instructors. Michael Witcher is
handling the bluegrass stuff, Mike Neer will lead a class focused on
the 30s/swing/Hawaiian jazz styles, and Don Rooke from the Canadian
band The Henrys will be talking about composing original music using
the slide guitar and showing the unique tuning he uses.
I hope dobroists interested in expanding their horizons in all these
directions will come and I've designed a class schedule that will let
you work with all the instructors over the term of the workshop.
Attendance is limited to 24 students total so you won't find a better
opportunity to work with these great teachers on a personal basis.

I'll be there all weekend as well helping out. We had a great initial
Bottleneck Slide intensive at the end of January and i'm still
working on a lap steel session for early October. Please let the
dobro pickers you know in on this info and sign up soon. Hope to see
you there.
