OVERVIEW:
Each month, the main presenter shares insights for the first hour to the whole group. Then attendees break out into one of 3 session options, based on interest and self-determined skill level: Rookies, Minors and Majors. A facilitator will lead each breakout session with a different subject each month. Bring you guitar because these are interactive sessions. Get ready to learn, play and share. Main presenter runs from 7-8 PM; breakouts runs 8-9 PM. Some folks hang for a bit afterward for some informal licks and jamming. It's all fun.

Hello everyone! Please see the details below!
Guitar League - Third Monday of each month. 7-9 pm
Main Presenter: 4th Anniversary celebration
Our meeting will start with our breakouts and/or practice for the open mic. Then we will have our open mic during the 2nd half of the meeting!
BREAKOUT:
Please note: We will have a formal breakout for anyone who does not want to practice or play in the open mic. Steve Oasen will be running this group. This breakout will be "Bring a favorite song to learn/share". Simply bring in a song you are working on or like to play and learn it/play it with Steve and the Breakout group!
OPEN MIC PERFORMANCE
There is a google sheet for signing up for a slot. This is a live document so anyone can see it when it is updated. Please feel free to add your name to the list before the meeting on 11/18 but know that you will be able to sign up at the meeting as well.
HERE IS THE LINK FOR THE SIGN UP!
ONE OTHER IMPORTANT NOTE!
The google sheet will have OPEN groups and CLOSED groups.
Anyone is welcome to join an OPEN group.
See the example below:
1) If I want to play a duet with a friend of mine and we want it to just be the two of us I would sign us up on the CLOSED group.
2) If I want to lead a song and I don't mind others playing with me I would sign up for the OPEN group (keep in mind you can practice at the first half of the meeting)
3) If I would like to play for the open mic but I do not want to play by myself or lead a song I can look at the OPEN groups and sign up to join one!
Please let me know if you have any questions! It should be a great time!
