[Harp-L] RE: Rockers in the Rockies



The event was great for me also.  I really enjoyed all the time I got to spend with the teachers and students.  Buzz is right when he says that the talent there was nothing less than highly impressive.  Buzz had 'em all going with Hoochie Coochie man on the last day during the instructors jam.  As I always do I have met some really great people and many of them will be friends for life.  Thanks to Jason, the band, the teachers, the students and of course Brady for all the hard work.  You guys all did a killer job.  
  Thanks!
