New England Flatpick Guitar Championship
July 30, 2008
I mentioned in my last post that I would be competing in the New England Flatpick Guitar Championship in Cornish, Maine. Many of you, I’m sure, have been wondering so I won’t keep you in suspense any longer.
I placed fourth out of the fifteen contestants! It was a really tough contest with many great guitar players.
This is how it stacked up:
1st: Tyler Grant
2nd: Roy Curry
3rd: Steve Lewis
4th: Adam Hager
It was a nice way to finish out my vacation. Also, I would like to thank Matt Lindsey for backing me up in the contest. I would say there’s a pretty good chance I’ll be back next year. We’ll see…

Adam,
You played really great. I would appreciate it if you would find something else to do next year instead of entering the contest. :^)
Just kidding, see you in July!
