Education

We all have different goals, different dreams. Some of us want to eventually join a band, be it for money or just for the fun of it. Some of us just want to play to songs that we love, and revel in the joy of nailing it. And some just want to show off! How are we going to get there? Here you will find links to web sites that are free to the public that are a springboard to obtaining good chops. Browse around, see what's out there. This directory will be expanded, and I'll give you my take on them as I also peruse them. But the choices are up to you as far as what you want to pursue. Have fun!
