Hi Everyone,

The Weekly Wrap Up is ready.

Have a fantastic weekend!

Well, I have certainly had a fun week. I can finally play with no pain to speak of,
which brings good and bad news. Good that I’m playing a lot, bad that it is so
much fun I didn’t manage to get to the lessons I have been planning. Oh well,
maybe next week. I do want to thank Vanessa and Max for picking up the slack
with Twentieth Century Fox by The Doors and Wake Me Up When September
Ends
by Green Day.

Speaking of Max, I had a chance to preview his new DVD set, Simple Lead Guitar.
It has a bunch of great concepts and information on becoming a better lead
player. Even if you have not done much but want to, it will take you in the right
direction.

And then, speaking of new directions, Sandy embarked on a new career as a bass
player. We managed to capture some of her first lesson on the bass as a Fly On
The Wall
this week. There are a few good fundamental tips on bass playing in
there.

It was cool to see JimC’s rendition of the old Jim Kweskin Jug Band tune Mobile
Line
. It brought up a couple interesting trivia questions. Neither of which should
be too hard if you are old enough…

On another front, it is seeming unlikely that we will be able to get enough interest
in IGC Europe for 2016 unless a bunch of people come out of the woodwork soon.
We may turn our energies toward the East Coast instead, possibly in early 2017.
Let us know who might have an interest in that.

Otherwise, a little John Renbourn favorite at the end and we are on to next week.
