Great to see you back, John! We missed seeing you this year at the
festival. Take care,

Hi there hurdy-gurdy mailing list,
John Woosley here in Portland, Oregon. I haven't been keeping up with the
list for quite a long time, but I have a solid email account now. Seems like
a good time to return from the Dark Side Of The Moon and join the community.
I'm looking forward to hearing about HG players, discuss HG recordings, and
possibly find out, once and for all, exactly what is behind each squeak,
creak, hum, warble and harmonic affecting hurdy-gurdies anywhere in the
world!
My instrument is a Hackmann (OMI) Volksgurdy, which has been getting more use
recently. For practice, I mostly play French traditional. My personal tastes
vary quite a bit, but lean towards the experimental side.
I would like to offer my sincere apologies to anyone whose correspondence I
may have inadvertently misplaced, procrastinated, or bounced, especially all
you fine Over-The-Water attendees. I was hoping to stop by the festival this
year, but a badly timed illness forced me to stay home. I look forward to our
next meeting.
Thanks and greetings to the Listmasters for their tireless efforts in
moderating this mailing list!
Best,
John
