That morning I'll be teaching a Guitar Skills Workshop at NHFS. The following evening I'll take part in an in-the round concert. Go to www.northhouse.org for details.



Nancy will also be at NHFS on Sept. 16th, teaching an all day bookmaking class.

A couple days ago, I was in the house band for a BBC TV taping at the Country Music Hall of Fame. "Rabbie and the Nashville Lassies" pairs Nashville singers Suzy Bogguss and Beth Nielson Chapman with Scottish singers Cathie Ann McPhee and Laura McGhee, singing the songs of Robert Burns. The show turned out great and I hope it eventually will air in the US. As of now, it is scheduled to air Jan. 25, 2012 in the UK.
