Since I first heard about it, to attend the Chicago Blues Camp has become one of my bucket list items.  And it is fairly high on the list.  A week of playing guitar and learning blues in my favorite city?!?! How could it not be high on my list? 

Predictably, the camp has been cancelled this year due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

Since the camp can not take place the organizers are offering video lessons by the camp instructors.  One chooses which of their instructors you want to get video lessons from and then you receive lessons on such Chicago Blues Classics as Big Boss Man, Killing Floor, Key To The Highway, Stormy Monday. Dust My Broom and others.  I won't offer any more details; just click on that link for more information.  Other than I will add that a portion of every tuition goes directly to the Blues Foundation Covid-19 Blues Musicians Emergency Relief Fund

All I have to do now is decide which musician I am signing up for.  I'm thinking Johnny Burgin.  No, maybe Billy Flynn.  No. Wait!  I saw Joanna Conner on the blues cruise and she is awesome.  But she is teaching slide, so no.  Well, but wait. I've thought about starting slide maybe now is the time!  But what about Dave Spectre?!?!

Maybe I'll eventually decide who I'm going to get my lessons from.  Go take a look and let us know if you sign up.
