IF ANYONE WANTS A COPY OF IT JUST LET ME KNOW AND I WILL EMAIL IT TO YOU. OBVIOUSLY YOU WILL NEED BIAB TO PLAY IT, I KNOW SOME OF YOU HAVE IT. I ALSO SENT YOU ALL A TABBED COPY OF THE COUNTERPOINT I DEMONSTRATED AT THE LAST MEETING, I WOULD LIKE TO USE IT AT THE INSTRUCTIONAL PART OF THE EVENING, SO GET PRACTICING IF YOU NEED ANOTHER COPY LET ME KNOW, AND TO GET RIGHT BACK TO BASICS I HAVE TABBED OUT AN E SCALE ON THE OPEN TUNING WHICH SOME OF THE BEGINNERS MIGHT FIND INTERESTING, AGAIN IF YOU WANT A COPY LET ME KNOW. DAVY, MALCOLM, WILLIE, OR ANYONE ELSE WHO WOULD LIKE TO, I WOULD BE VERY INTERESTED TO HEAR ANY IDEAS FOR FURTHER TEACHING.

Donny regards helping with problems, I don't have enough cash to buy a Mullen G2 or a Rittenbery , so wondered if we could have a collection on the night to help me out?

Donny ~ could you please send me copies of the stuff with the exception of the BIAB tracks as I don't have BIAB, thanks, Jim.

P.S. -- I think you may have to supply sub-titles in respect of "bidie in" for the benefit of 'South-of-the-border' members ??? :roll:
