Done yesterday (20090912)

( raw notes )

As usual for cons, my note-taking is sketchier. But it was a good, relaxing day. Lots of good talks with people I don't see often enough.

Joe Giacoio's guitar workshop was great. I was the only one there at first, so I got to pick the topics: open tunings and cross-hand playing. Very, very informative. His technique is to give you the "aha" bit of information that tells you how to learn the rest on your own.

Colleen is enjoying the con, and her increased mobility, immensely, and needs comparatively little help. The bed is too high for her, though; I'm going to have words with the hotel on that (though I doubt it will do any good).
