RGC Round Robin in the Red Room, May 16, 2016

Joe Palumbos started off this month’s meeting by dazzling us with his “Diminished Scale tip-of-the-month.” Joe had several of the group members play a D minor to A7 chord progression while he demonstrated how the diminished scale run fit nicely over the A7 chord to transition back into the D minor chord.

Tanya Wurzer brought her Takamine acoustic-electric steel string guitar, and Jerry Marshall brought his mini Martin guitar, also an acoustic-electric.
