Fans of this site know that the American Primitive style of guitar is very important to us, in fact, it touches on almost everything we do.  Longtime fan, documentarian and overall champion of the genre Jesse Sheppard along with the help of Glenn Jones and others has organized this once in a lifetime meeting of players and enthusiasts, and it promises to be an incredible weekend. Many of the leading lights of instrumental acoustic guitar will be performing, and there will also be film screenings and panel discussions.
