I thought it was a great idea...
I've been wanting to go for a few years now so back in the spring I decided that this was the year I was going to attend Kaufman Kamp...I'm from East Tennessee originally and love the area....my wedding anniversary is in June - right about the time of the second session. My wife doesn't play guitar or anything but she loves to take nature photographs...so I thought it was a real good idea to plan on spending our anniversary week in Maryville...I probably should have been more clear when I told her we were "gonna go to the Smokies for a week" and me sending her an e-mail with the week's agenda wasn't such a good ice breaker either...
Anyway, I'm still married but still haven't been to Kaufman Kamp so I'm gonna have to do some better planning if I'm gonna make it next year and I'll probably need to plan on going stag...
I still seems like a great way to spend an anniversary but I now know that I am wrong and it is a bad idea...I've been told by somebody who knows!

My go-to guitar for just about everything else (and it flatpicks just fine, thank you) is my Huss & Dalton D-RH with a Red Spruce top.…"

"Thanks Mike. I have to prove to myself that I can play the material as written but once I've done that I start to allow myself some leeway to have fun and drop in my own bits. There's not too much space to do that in SK's version of…"
