Chris Langan Summer School 2009, Rush, Co. Dublin

Well, another Chris Langan Summer School has come and gone. A highly enjoyable weekend was had by all. Many thanks to the session.org members who supported the event.

We had some very talented tutors teaching at the workshops including the reigning world bodhrán champion no less.
(Oh and some guy teaching the guitar - don't know where they got him!).

You can see some footage of the workshops here:

If you haven't been aware of this event I'd encourage to put a marker in your diaries for next year.

Wow, that didn't take you long llig. I'm impressed. But seriously, check out the internet TV footage of the tutor's concert at the end of the workshops. I think even you will have to admit that this is no mere goat's backside thumping.

You're joking right? You're asking me to watch it?
