Despite having played guitar for many years, I am very often the least talented guitarist at any folk singaround or open mic I go to.

So, where are you all, beginners and learners? In my experience, you'll nearly always find encouragement and a very warm welcome, and no one will mind that you only know a couple of chords, or play a song they already know well.

We all started learning once, and we all still mess up now and then; so, if it all goes wrong on your first try, it really doesn't matter to anyone except you! Just go back and try again, and again, and again!
