I'm going to pay $45 to watch Ronnie play and blab (probably somewhat
senselessly) about Blues guitar?
NOT!
I'd rather pat the $5.00 cover charge when he plays the Sit n Bull on
Wed. eves, thankyouverymuch!
Buck, who thought the Ronnie $45/guitar lesson price was bad (at least
you get to play in that deal)

| Sounds like he should just make a video,.. probably get a lot more
dollars back for his time anyway,.. and we could all cop it for $20
or whatever,...
I love the dude,. love to go hear him play,.. BUT,. $45 to just
watch and like not have him watch me play and give *ME* pointers
or whatever,.. does seem like a steep price...
Has anybody suggested they tape it? Hell,. I'll market the thing
and take 5% of the gross,...

| 2489.3 | Too much! | GOES11::G_HOUSE | Now I'm down in it | Thu Apr 02 1992 15:38 | 6 |
| Most of the music store seminars around here are sponsored by equipment
manufacturers and are free. I don't care if it was with someone I
really loved, I'd never pay FOURTY-FIVE bucks for an hour and a half
lecture. I'm sorry, but that's really usury as far as I'm concerned.

| 2489.4 | Just call me damage control...the money's going to charity... | KALI::TTESTA | Holding my breath till I turn BLUES | Wed Apr 15 1992 09:52 | 5 |
| I was gonna enter the info about the clinic this week, but never
got around to it....I hate to see Ronnie and the Minor Chord getting
slagged, so I'm entering this one small piece of info that was left out
of the info that has been posted...all the money from this venture (steep
as it is...) is going to charity.

| I worked for the Minor Chord for several years. All I'll say is... (MY
PERSONAL OPINION) that I don't think Bill Brown would bother with the
hassle of the whole event if his little ole pocket wasn't getting
something for his troubles. That guy doesn't do favors for ANYONE!!
Q: does Ronnie's $45.00 for a 45 min lesson go to charity, too?

Perhaps this should have a note of its own, but it might be ok here.
Jeff Berlin is going to be at the Peabody, MA Daddy's store at 7pm
on April 21st. Tickets are $5 and available from Daddy's in
Peabody, and Boston, MA and Portsmouth and Salem, NH. Fwiw, the
appearance is sponsored by Peavey.
