I know of teachers in Providence ( think), Boston and Canton MA and probably closer to you. It depends how much driving you'll do.

All the best wishes I have. And maybe all the luck in the world just now.

Below is a link to a thread on concertina.net with more info. Noel is in the hospital and has had a couple of surgeries and will need more. Most of the damage is to his face. He's decided to go ahead with his class in Ireland in March and I assume will also do his usual US classes in the summer. On ...

I wonder how many of these instruments are being offloaded by people who fancied taking up the box, bought one, found it a lot more difficult than they expected and never got very far with it, and how many by people who play seriously but are thinning the herd to raise cash. I'm waiting for someone...

I bought a low milage 1990 Maxima around 1992. I drive it for 9 yrs and loved it. It had lots of pop and generally was a fun, tough car. It never gave me any significant problems. I dinged the front end and it wasn't worth repairing. I bought a 4-cyl camry with no pop at all - reliable dull car. I n...

Hang in there Dale. We're all hoping the best for your mother.

I was there. I remember him singing, sort of. We all knew the words. It was no big deal. Now it's one of the life's great mysteries. Every few years a new version pops up with different captions. Mankind can not advance 'till Joe Cocker makes sense.

I think Bill has the right approach. This thread demonstrates that we, and everyone else, have very diverse expections about giving and getting gifts and giving and getting thanks. This is all overlaid by pretty strong opinions about accpetable and unacceptable behavior within families, among friend...

I've been on facebook and my space for a year or so. I keep in touch with nieces and nephews who are scattered around the country. They ask me to be their friend and are very clear that they don't want their parents (my siblings) to join. One niece said she was going to clean up her page because I w...

I always carry a 2.5 inch locking back, walnut handled pocket knife. It says Lakota Falcon in the blade. I'm also a fed and it's never been a process. If I forget my ID and go through the metal detectors, the guards have never said a thing when i put it in the little basket with keys, change and wal...

Very sad. Joanie - Our thoughts are with you and your family.

Sorry to hear about your Dad. I been down this road a couple of times. The odd thing is that no matter how things work out and no matter how dark it seems at times, there will also be moments of joy, laughter and love. Embrace them and share them with those closest to you.

Good luck

I read and liked a lot of his books. Based on that I read State of Fear. I read it simply because it was Michael Crichton. It was good enough as a thriller, but as I neared the end of the book, I kept checking the list of titles in the front of the book. Is this the same guy?! It was a very politic...
