Subject: [JP] Nerissa Nields' songwriting class extended

I have been asked to post this around (if someone would be so kind as to
forward this  to the Dar-List, I would really appreciate it).  Nerissa's
songwriting class, held Wednesday nights at the Pioneer Arts Center of
Easthampton has been extended for another four weeks (info below). 

Songwriting Workshop with Nerissa Nields

Wednesdays 7:30 - 9:30 pm, March 12 - April 9 or Thursday, April 10

Taught by one of the most respected songwriters of her generation. Nerissa
will help you hone your personal style with a focus on both lyrics and
melody. This class is open to all skill levels.
Cost: $120 E-mail us at pace@pioneerarts.org

Or call us at 413-527-3700

And really, when they say all skill levels, they mean it, b/c *I'M* in the
class, and as long as I continue to occupy a chair there, no one else need
have ANY worries about talent.  ;-)  It's been a really great four weeks so
far, very supportive, very encouraging....everyone in the class kicks butt,
and we're not allowed to say anything bad about each other (or about
ourselves), so it's a very gentle process, and everyone is SO good, it's like

going to an open mic house concert every week.  To cover details that were
kind of iffy for the first session, for anyone thinking of signing up, bring
a guitar (or instrument of your choice -- the center has a piano, though it's
in desperate need of tuning, so if you're a keyboard player and have one of
your own, you might want to bring that instead) and a notebook to the first
class and, you should really be prepared to sing a song that you've written
(while performance isn't technically required, it is STRONGLY encouraged, and
it'll probably be guaranteed that you'll end up playing in front of the class
before the end of the four weeks
is out anyway).  It really has been a lot of fun. 

I'd be happy to answer any questions off Nook (or on, if they seem to have
universal appeal). 

Peace, Sheila
