Thanks to everyone who attended the meeting on February 25.  We spent time discussing how we each come up with melodies for our songs, and as expected there were many different methods:  chords first, melody first then chords, or just coming with tunes in our heads.  It was interesting to hear everyone's take.

We really appreciate Mainline Brewing in Richmond hosting our writers' round this past Wednesday, November 20.  The facilities are outstanding - great setup and nice acoustics.
