| Hi Everyone, |
| |
| Thank you for your continued support of the music and a warm welcome to new eNews recipients. There's a lot happening so I'll get right to it. |
| |
WEBSITES |
| I'm pleased to announce the launch of two new websites. The first is @ www.billburke.net. This is a redesign of my personal site. Content will be uploaded frequently so please visit often. |
| |
| The second site is for the 5th Annual Guitar and Bass Retreat (July 30-August 2, 2009). |
| The Retreat is a recreational four days of individual and group lessons, jam sessions and concerts on the beautiful mountain campus of St. Francis University. Please visit the site and register soon. Beginning through advanced students, guitarists, bassists and tappers are warmly welcomed. |

| THIS WEEK |
| This week I'll be heading to Portland, Oregon for a couple of great events. On Thursday April, 9 I'll be in the KHMD studios during the "Groovology" broadcast (5-9pm EST, 2-6pm PST). The show's host, Pete Kling, is a long-time friend. We're sure to have a great time with some interviews and performances. To listen to the live broadcast, click here (kmhd.org). |
| |
| On Friday April, 10 I'll be warming up for The Roots official post-concert party at The Someday Lounge, 8pm PST. This is a great venue which offers live webcasts of their shows. To view, click here. |
