Just a quick note to let you know that the phenomenal Tim May will be in our store this evening (Wed 9/05/07) at 7:30 to pass along some tips and tricks for acoustic guitar, mandolin, and possibly a little Dobro. Here is a link to his site if you want some direct info: http://www.timmaymusic.net/
In the mutual respect department, Tim has an endorsement with the Breedlove Guitar Co., and is performing at the Sisters Folk Festival which is this Friday through Sunday in beautiful Sisters, OR.
Instead of closing at the usual 7:00, we'll be setting up for the clinic, so roll on in and find a chair.
See you then!
Ken
