Something new! We're gonna try this without a Coach. Just a Song Circle.

Ed will be hosting locally, with TBD Hosting remotely.

Think of it as kind of no-frills flight, except with some of your best buddies. and guitars.

We think it would be great if you had a chart for the song you plan to share on your computer or device. When you take a turn, you can use Zoom's Share Screen feature so that everyone can follow along. Or if that gets a little too technical for you, send it ahead by clicking here before the session and we'll take care of the sharing.
