Thanks for including me in your group. I'm in East Devon, I've not found much by way of bluegrass in this area. Currently having some Skype lessons from the great John Dowling.

chipper says: 3/30/2015 9:51:03 AM Hi Mark, I find the lessons pretty good. We use SKype and recently tried FaceTime - which is Apple specific. Both work fine, FaceTime does connect much more easily though. The only issue John D finds, I am John M by the way, is that he can't play along with me as there is a very slight time lag. That aside, it's a great way to get to a brilliant musician and teacher. I've had face to face lessons with him in Cornwall which are a 6 hour round trip! Not practical. John.
