TeenGrass discussion group

Garian Vigil of Boulder, Colorado, a member of IBMA and the Colorado Bluegrass Music Society, says: 'I hope you will pass this along to any teen pickers you know. Thanks in advance. Please tell your membership about TeenGrass!

'TeenGrass is a Yahoo discussion group for pre-teen, teen, and young adult bluegrass musicians from all over the world. The group site has room for uploading pictures and files, and it's a great networking tool for the members to share information, tunes, good news and encouragement.

'To fully access the site, the user must have a Yahoo profile which is easy to create, but the email list can also be delivered to any inbox of any email system. The group is fully moderated, so there's no spam or other inappropriate email. Please pass this along so that this group can grow!'

BIB editor's note: The monthly magazine Bluegrass Now now carries a 'Teen Scene' column in every issue. By the way, the September issue of BN also has a cover feature on Greg Cahill, who as chairman of the IBMA's 'Bluegrass in the Schools' committee and leader of the Special Consensus has done a lot to bring bluegrass to people still at school. Greg and the Special C. will be in Ireland early next year; see our calendar for dates.
