I thought I would write to let you know how much I enjoyed the Blues
Weekend I came on from 31st October to 2nd November 2003. Sorry it's such a
belated letter, but events have overtaken me since I came up to see you.To say that the weekend gave me the impetus to go on to greater thing
would be an understatement. It really improved my confidence, as well as my
playing.This happened to such an extent that last
Saturday, I actually stood up in front of around 50 - 60 people at our
regular pub and did a ½ hour set of Shadows songs. I don't think that I
would have had the nerve to do this if it hadn't been for the weekend, and
the advice of Rod Sinclair. I now have to refine my playing as I have
volunteered to do a set at a local charity function at the end of February
in front of around 500 people.I am also now
hoping to go and stand up and play at our local blues jamming nights in the
near future.
I don't think hat I could have
progressed this much without the week-end. I am keeping an eye on your
website, and hopefully we will be able to come up again this year,
especially if you have any more of the Sunday afternoon workshops, which we
both really enjoyed.
