Dobro

Welcome to my garden

Michael Bean - Cody Girl

Here's a piece that I put together a while back, but just finally made it public.  It's dedicated to the memory of my border collie Cody, the best dog I ever met.   It follows my regular theme of dog-inspired tunes.  On this tune I played my Steve Pierce reso, mando, banjo, guitar, & bass.  Thanks for listening.

One hour to teach dobro? What would you cover?

As I mentioned earlier in the Events section, I'll be leading an introduction to dobro workshop at the San Francisco Free Folk Festival this weekend.

Here's a PDF of the information I'll be covering during my workshop. Any feedback is welcomed. Is this too much information? Are there things I'm leaving out that I should cover in that hour? Are there any incorrect things mentioned, or things you think I should approach differently?
