Dangem Bluegrass Get-Together returns - 26 Sept. 2015

A reminder from DanGem Bluegrass in Craigavon, Co. Armagh, that their next monthly Bluegrass Get-Together - the first one after the summer break - will be held on Saturday 26 Sept. at the usual place and time (the Lagan Valley Island Civic Centre, Lisburn, Co. Antrim BT27 4RL, from 9.30/10.00 a.m. to noon); and with the usual schedule:

10.00-10.30 Warm-up
10.30-11.00(ish) Break out time for beginners; rest of players, jam time
11.00(ish) to 12.00(ish) All back together

Howard Walker of the Down and Out Bluegrass Band will be there to give lessons to beginners on 5-string banjo, thanks to the support of the Lagan Valley Arts Centre.

The DanGem Get-Together combines a jam session for those who are already active pickers, with the opportunity to learn for those who are beginners or just want to listen. DanGem add: 'Bring along your banjos, guitars, mandolins, fiddles, dobros, and bass, or just come along and enjoy. Look forward to seeing as many of you who can attend.'

DanGem's e-newsletter includes a reminder that they have the largest range of banjos for sale in this island.
