Who teaches what will of course help me decide what to study. Then and between now and then. Oh and the replacement tuner arrived no hassles no problems. Good folks at Onboard Research. Be well...

At 1:11pm on July 3, 2009, Richard Calvert said…: Yes I emailed the folks at OnBoard Research and they were more than helpful. So a replacement tuner will be on the way within one day of when my damaged one arrives in Texas. Now it's up to the Post Office. Once again Kamp was " a most excellent adventure" and the materials I returned home with are enough to keep me studying / learning / entertained till next June. R/

With your blessing, I'd like to bring some music and see if anyone would like to take an hour out of their evening jam time to play/rehearse, and we can see where it goes from there.

Thanks Steve, see you in a few weeks!

At 9:14pm on April 21, 2009, Kristin Stiteler said…: Hey Steve - do you know if there are any plans for a guitar/mando orchestra this year? If not, I was thinking about bringing some stuff and seeing if there were any volunteers willing to play in one - I certainly missed it last year!

Haven't sent in my registration yet, but will do it soon...I promise!

Thanks.

Airline and Kamp registration are booked.
There are some other MN pickers coming week 2 so that helped sway my decision.
I am really looking forward too it.
I struggled with intermediate or advanced. I think maybe I fall somewhere in between.
I figured it's probably better to make sure I get the basics than have too much go over my head.
See you in June!!!
Nathan

At 3:39pm on February 24, 2009, Nathan Fjeld said…: Thanks for the welcome, Steve. And thanks for the email reply about registration last weekend. As much as I would like to have some classes with Dan Crary, I think I am still going to sign up for week 2. The instructors look great both weeks but the 2nd week works out better schedule wise and I like the instrument mix better the second week. I am really looking forward too it.

At 5:37pm on January 25, 2009, Ken Bailey said…: Does the $775 cover room and board as well as all other costs? What are the times and dates for arrival and departure for week two?

Thanks,

Ken

At 8:13am on January 23, 2009, Ken Bailey said…: I have looked all over your webpage and cannot find anywhere the cost for the camp, lodging arrangements, schedule, etc.

Need to know these things in order to register.

I just bought a (cheap!) banjitar and got your instruction book. People at work are looking at me strangely because I go around the office muttering "down up down up" all day long! I tell them it's a stock market thing, but secretly, I'm playing Roll On Buddy in my head. Thanks for another challenging instruction book, and I'm looking forward to Kamp '09!

At 11:16am on January 3, 2009, Mark Cosgrove said…: Steve,
We thought it was hilarious. I remember digging out the phone for the benefit of the camera and voila, it's immortalized! Another fine job!

At 10:39am on January 3, 2009, Adam said…: My son and i will be signing up shortly. I am debating whether going to flatpicking class though. I would say that i am between beginning and intermediate, but totally clueless in jams. I have not found anyone in my area to try to jam with, but will keep trying!

At 1:53pm on December 24, 2008, Norm Cox said…: Hey Steve,
Just a note to wish you and Donna and Mark a very merry Christmas, and a healthy, joyful and rewarding '09. Just filled out my kamp registration, so, Lord willin' I'll see you all in June. Ya'll are the best.

At 9:50am on December 23, 2008, Wanda Moore said…: Hi Steve,

See you in June!
