John, I sent an email a month or so about a possible workshop this spring and I'm wondering if you received it. I sent two other emails about the same time I sent yours but received notification that delivery failed on all three of them. I know one of them did go through because I got a reply. Just curious if you got yours.

John, not trying to hijack Bill's thread, but wanted to let you know that I sent an email to Becky some time back that had a link to a tune/study I did that I thought you might want to tinker with. Didn't receive a reply, so I thought it's possible that your spam filter may have prevented Becky from seeing it (since it had a link in it). I also sent the same message to you a little earlier via Facebook messaging, but I realize a lot of people don't use the FB message system.

BTW, I received yours and Tommy's Christmas CD today and look forward to listening to it.

Bill, I really am not trying to hijack your thread but it seemed the perfect place to let John know that you and others (at least me) have had problems getting email to him.

Thank you both,
Bruce

Bill & Bruce,

The email network is fine. I'm just running behind. Bill, I don't have any workshops planned for this Spring. I will offer my CAAS Warmup Workshop again this July. I'll put you on the list (no obligation) and send word when it gets closer.

Bruce, I sent you a message on facebook. I'm glad you are enjoying the Christmas CD I did with Tommy. One day in the studio, I asked Tommy, "What do you think Chet would say if he were here listening to us right now?" Tommy came back with, "What took you so long, boys?"

The rest of you guys can get your own copy of "All I Want For Christmas" at

Thanks John. I guess that Damien fellow that returns emails jumped the gun that day.

As much as I would love to do the July workshop, may as well take me off the list. Unless something drastic changes with my situation I'll do good to attend all 4 days of the convention if I get to attend at all. I'd hate for someone else to not get a spot when I'm on the list knowing I probably won't be able to make it.

Bruce, no worries as John was professional enough to respond to us both like I knew he would.

Bill, so sorry that you won't be able to attend John's workshop. I hope things work out for you so that you can.

John, "All I Want for Christmas" is EXCELLENT. I love every tune. I used to think that nobody could beat Chet's I'll Be Home for Christmas, but your Lenny style intro and background combined with Tommy's magic touch on the lead is so good that I now have to wonder which I like more. Too hard for me to decide, so I won't.

I do highly recommend the CD to all:
