And thanks for allowing me to join , I have been playing for about three years and could do with meeting some players here in the North west of the UK to either play with or get lessons from.

Look forward to making many contacts here

	g3zdm says: 2/13/2016 12:41:27 PM Sorry, I missed that. That certainly makes the Rainford jam the closest.

	Andy Campbell says: 2/14/2016 1:29:21 AM Yes, that's the same Stuart Williams.
lakesbuster says: 2/14/2016 3:27:00 AM I learnt an awful lot from his CD and booklet with the fifteen songs in its so much better knowing how it should sound except when you hear it the first time ,its soooo fast ,I down loaded a speed shifter from the net and it enables you to follow the tabs easier slower till I got used to it
