not sure if I'm in the right place, but I'm just organising my first residential guitar weekend - Ben Walker is going to be running a couple of days of DADGAD workshops on arrangement and accompaniment in open tuning. He's a great guy and a superlative player. He has an array of rather tasty guitars including a 30s gibson archtop and a quite stunning custom Fylde Falstaff (with Fan frets for extra alliteration). Ben has just been nominated for a fourth BBC Radio 2 Folk Award The event is at Halsway Manor, Somerset on the weekend of the 25 April this year. We're also going to be joined by ace guitar and bouzouki maker Kai Toenjes showing off some of his stunning new guitar creations. Hope it is of interest to some of you - details can be found at www.halswaymanor.org.uk/portal/alias__Halsway/lang__en/tabid__4461/eventid__656/default.aspxTheres' a few places left - the best bit is I get to go myself. very much looking forward to it It runs alongside our arts and crafts workshops if anyone has friends or partners that want to join them and aren't of the guitar twiddling persuasion.
