	conic says: 12/11/2016 1:41:37 PM Agree 100%, Andy is a great teacher, HE does not teach you how to play a song but how to play the banjo in some very interesting ways, What was learnt on this day you could not get from a book or DVD. Keep a lookout for the next one which I believe will be banjo styles of playng, scruggs, clawhammer, uppicking , two finger etc.
	Andy Anderson says: 12/13/2016 4:26:09 AM Thanks for your kind words. The first 'Andy's Banjo Workshop' turned out to be a great success. Everyone got stuck in and no one fell asleep! The next one will be on Saturday 21st January 2017 at the Red Bull, Church Lawton ST7 3AJ, (near Kidsgrove). The workshop will focus on different aspects of playing styles including frailing, up-picking (Pete Seeger), two finger, melodic, Scruggs and a couple of original hybrid styles. It has been designed to be of interest to anyone who has already started to learn to play the 5 string banjo (minimum) through to experienced players who want to branch out and explore alternative ways to make their banjo ‘sing’. We will also explore alternative tunings such as Double C, Standard C, Open D, G modal and more. It is mostly practical and will, hopefully, inspire players to find out for themselves about just how versatile these wonderful instruments really are. I will post details of the course programme shortly. There are twelve places on each of this series of workshops. For this one in particular, there are ten left. Please drop a line to andysbanjoworkshops@gmail.com if you would like to reserve a place.
