Just too freaking cool to adequately describe how much fun, how much data was flowing, how much talent was in one place, how cooperative and collaborative it all was, and how little sleep I got for the last week..... my speaking and spelling skills are toast as of now..some of the roster of instructors

Al Petteway
Robin Bullock
Tony McManus
Stephen Bennett
Paul Asbell
Pat Kirtley
Kate Campbell
Christine Kane

I am glad to hear that you had a great time in North Carolina. I have met Al Petteway and Pat Kirtley several times and they are amazing guitarists. I was considering going to Swananoah this year, but had too many other things going on. Maybe next year! :D

Tom,

I'd love to go to Swanny.

I know at least one friend of mine went this year; Camalex from over at the Celtic Forum. Not sure how many folks go to this, so you may not have run into him.

Stephen Bennett, nice guy. :)

Sounds like y'all had an amazing time Mr Tom! :)
