About Me

I believe that there are three types of people in this world.......those who ..MAKE THINGS HAPPEN'...................those who ..WATCH THINGS HAPPEN' and those who ..DON'T KNOW WHAT'S HAPPENING'........I guess at times in my life I have been all three......although I like to think of myself more of a ..Make Things Happen' type of person.My musical journey has introduced me to many characters who have inspired me......some have become great friends. Thanks to..Show of Hands' whose music led me to buy a Mando Cello from luthier David Oddy..........and to the people who have any kind words to say about my music. Thanks also to the guitar students who have approached me to work with them to develop new skills and to pass on some of the knowledge gained over the years.I will be inviting special guests to run some guitar and performance skills workshops in 2008, so anyone interested in finding out more, or about guitar lessons please contact me on 01253 884813 or [email protected] a Guitar Tutor registered with the Registry of Guitar Tutors, I offer guitar lessons and tuition in Poulton, St Annes, Lytham, Warton, Blackpool, Thornton, Cleveleys, Fleetwood, Kirkham, Wesham and St Michaels
