Hello TBers

finally putting together the plans for this January's bass
masterclass in Cupertino. The venue has changed - it's going to be at
the Accugroove HQ (address to follow), and there are TWO days this
year - Saturday 27th Jan, as usual, will be the full day workshop for
20 players (definitely limited to just 20).

It'll be $60, which you can send via paypal to steve {AT} steve-lawson.co.uk

The Sunday will be for just 5 players, and will be an ultra-intensive
hands on Solo Bass Masterclass. We'll take your music, pull it apart,
look at all the possibilities for your music. That will be $120 per
person, paypal in the same way - please only come on this one if
you're actually playing and writing solo bass music, because you will
be playing. There's no strict 'standard' limit, but it's definitely
not just a listening day... We'll be looking at a lot of the
different aspects of playing, from articulation of ideas, developing
melodic lines, technology, composition... Deep stuff! :o)

If you've got any questions, send me a message...

more US dates up on my Myspace page - www.myspace.com/solobassstevelawson

Hi

I don't suppose you've any plans on doing something like this in the UK.

Kevin

If there's enough interest, I'm sure I could be persuaded :)

Steve

Steve,

Are you going to be doing any performance afterwards? I recall a year or so ago you were in the SanJose area with Manring and Jeff Schmitt and performed for about 2hrs or so. Although I don't have much interest in taking a solo class, I (and many other non-soloists) might be interested in hearing a you play.

Hi Growler,

I think I've got a gig in Santa Cruz on the Sunday night, if that's close enough - more details ASAP.

The Saturday masterclass is certainly not for solo players - definitely designed for 'normal' bassists :)

Bumpity Bump...

also, the Santas Cruz gig is at the E3 playhouse - www.e3playhouse.com

email me if you want to come to the masterclass - there are still some places left. :)

if this was a bit closer to home, I'd definitely want to be there...

Steve, I'm going to try and make it on Sunday night in Santa Cruz.

I'd be interested if you did one of these in the UK Steve.
