Hi guys,

I know there is a meeting in late Feb, but due to work commitments, unfortunately I won't be able to attend. I was just wondering if there are any further plans for the year? And if so, how do they work? I see there are some workshops and stuff which is great, but do you have to book in advance and is there a fee? As I'm only 2 months into the banjo, I would also like to get a bit better so I can join in jam sessions :)

	RB-1 says: 1/30/2016 12:18:51 PM As we're well on the way of having our 2016 summer tour in the UK planned, I could try to sneak in the occasional workshop. As things are now, this should be in the first week of August. Look in the link to our homepage in my profilepage. Then check 'concerts'. Combining this with a UK5 meeting would be great, but if someone feels like setting up a workshop venue, we can always try something. Most likely we'll be somewhere between Shropshire and Leeds.

	RB-1 says: 1/30/2016 2:01:31 PM Thanks Debs! Hope to see you there. Last year we had a great time playing at the various venues. Hoping to secure some more for this summer, in order to make the trip more affordable. Would be great to conduct a workshop like I did last time at Dalesfest, together with Chris Cooper. Love to share with JoeMac if possible, or do it on my own, if must. I'm in for anything.

	RB-1 says: 2/1/2016 1:18:55 AM No, unfortunately not this time. First day we set foot on UK soil this year will be Jul. 28th, and be performing at Darlington folk club that same night. Check the tourdates on the link above.
