Hey all,
This is my first-ever forum post (hello!) on Mandolin Cafe. I'm a Tacoma, WA native and I've been (attempting) to teach myself mandolin for a few months.
The key word there is "attempting". I'm seeking anyone/anywhere in the area where I can watch people play, take lessons, and just generally try and improve where I'm at. I've searched for instructors but I'm wary because most I've found online in this area teach not only mandolin but every other string instrument under the sun...
I'm looking for literally anything relating to mandolin in the South Puget Sound. I've asked local music stores and have basically gotten a shrug and "Try Wintergrass?" As I've been playing I know that I'm using some very awful techniques (let's just say I'm a pro at not using my left pinky...at all) and I want to get myself out of that dangerous black hole before it's too late! I'm hoping to maybe take a few lessons and get my technique down correctly and then hopefully venture back into self-teaching.
Anyone from the PACNW with any leads on workshops or anything?
I hope I posted this in the right place. XD
