Just wondered if you all had seen Rob Newall's review of Sally's SFSS class of 2002 on the sorefingers site. [Non-text portions of this message have been...
... Yep, but I still wonder if anyone as new to the game as me would get anything out of a class with someone of Sally's calibre. I'd like to learn how to do...

You are definitely not alone out there Hamish, I'm in my first year of Dobro playing, being already 'jack of all trades & master of none' having graduated via...
Kevin Brown appeared at our blues festival in May - very good bottleneck player and good singer in the traditional, earthy blues style. I was highly impressed....
There's no need to feel intimidated by the standard - I've been playing for a couple of years now and I'm still crap (but that's because I don't practise...
Good to hear from you Martin & Pete - I'm learning some stuff in Open D from Kevin who lives nearby: the amazing thing watching him play bottleneck is just how...
