We left the hotel in Frederick at 7am to travel to Charlotte via Charles Town on route 340. Since Claymont is so close to Charles Town, we decided to go there but Isabel closed the road with fallen tree.

With detour, we made it finally to Claymont. This is the Mansion that held many Guitar Craft courses in the early days. Imagine many, many guitarists are playing Ovations every possible place. It was the good old days.

This is the Barn. I drove from Boston there in 1986 to find out about Guitar Craft course and somehow I ended up taking a 4 month Residential course before Guitar Craft. One task for me was feeding a cow every morning.

Finally, we made it to Charlotte in time for the showcase. This is Spirit Square that has small theaters for presentation of performers by different agencies.

We have 15 min of presentation and it has to be done within that time. We made the set carefully for this performance. The set started with some circulation into "Scramble","No.9" and "Miserlou".

Those audiences were buyers and they enjoyed our presentation very much. After this, we went to a nice dinner with SRO people. Thank you very much!
