Compton and Long question

[muzicfreak]

I live in Phoenix and i am thinking of driving 6-7 hours to Santa Barbara or San Diego. For next weekend Compton and Long Show/Workshop.. Now has anyone been to one of the workshops.. and if so is it worth the drive? Trying to decide today http://www.mandolincafe.net/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wow.gif
any info would be great!
cheers

I've been to several of their 'Duet' shows, as well as one (unfortunately short) workshop. They are both well versed in the Monroe style and tradition. They are a very good show. Their workshop is a broad introduction to Monroe's approach and his stylings on the mandolin.
The question for you is whether of not you will get the same information any closer to your location; my answer: probably not.

Agree with the above post, thought you might want my .02.
I went to their show/workshop last December. It was awesome! Or to put it another way - I'm going to see them again tonight!! http://www.mandolincafe.net/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/mandosmiley.gif
