Let me know what your availability is, my only stipulation is that I do not teach Thursday or Friday nights. If you have Saturday lessons, they may be cancelled due to gigs. Hopefully the following is not a reiteration, but I like to send it to all prospective students: I teach out of my home in Fountain Valley. I teach 1 hour lessons. I teach my own method (of 28 years). No reading, ear training only! Bluegrass, old time, Irish, Texas styles. All lessons are put on cassette tapes so you can go home and actually hear and remember what we worked on. I give fingering and bowings.

Shelah Spiegel Fountain Valley, CA 92708 Fri, 18 Feb 2011 14:07 CST eric@fiddlehangout.com http://www.fiddlehangout.com/classifieds/detail.asp?cid=2248 Our active bluegrass band practices in the Blackiston/Kenton area and will be playing in Southern DE and Eastern MD area. Our material consists of mostly gospel material, some classic bluegrass tunes, ripping instrumentals, and some original music. Currently the band consists of a rhythm guitar/lead singer who has been singing for 30 years, a great singer/songwriter, an excellent banjo player, a very talented bass player, and a mediocre mandolin player:) (that'd be me!) We're looking for another lead instrument (fiddle, dobro, guitar...) fluent in popular tunes and easily adaptable. This is a fairly new lineup so we're working up a lot of material we'll be performing. We don't do bars so we'll mostly be playing churches, festivals, events, etc.. A great time for the right person to come have as much fun as we're having! Shoot me an e-mail!
