In September Ken sent me an invitation for his workshops, I suggested he may want to consider more favourbale times for his UK audiences. He has now arranged a UK friendly workshop for November, see below.
Playing Jigs (6/8 Time Tunes) in Clawhammer (Saturday Nov. 21 1:00-2:30 PM Eastern Time) A lot of people say you can't play 6/8-time tunes in clawhammer style, but - having mastered that art decades ago - Ken shares with you the system he developed. He'll break down 6/8 time and show how basic clawhammer techniques can be adapted to play it, teach some very simple jigs, and then explore a series of increasingly more challenging ones. By the end of the session you'll wonder what all the fuss was about. This clinic is scheduled on a weekend afternoon to give British & European pickers a chance to join in (note that in pre-Covid days, it was quite commonplace to schedule instrument workshops on Saturday afternoons). Price: $20 per computer. Level: Intermediate & up Prerequisite: You should be pretty good at drop-thumbing, hammer-ons & pull-offs

Thanks for this, John.
The only reason I didnt sign up for the first two was the Monday evening timings, so you've done us a real favour.
I attended one of Ken's workshops in person several years back when he toured the UK and he's a tremendous player and teacher.
