Hello there,
Just a couple of things –
Tonight, being Thursday the 18th of September (that terrible anniversary of the death of Jimi,) I will be performing the live musical score, on 5 string banjo, to the film “Blind Justice (1916)” at the State Library in Melbourne. Starts at 7pm.
here’s the film, including the score by Neil Brand that I will be working from loosely:
And here’s some info on the chap that wrote the music:

So that should be fun.
THEN on Saturday at 11am, at the Cricket Pavilion in Guildford I’ll be holding my patented workshops on Jazz chords for the 5 string banjo as part of the Guildford Banjo Jamboree. This year will certainly be different from the previous years, with a more casual, conversational approach focused on the beginner player.

After that I am going surfing at a secret location for a week. But I’ll be back with more banjo after the holidays.
Bye now!
