I just renewed my yearly subscription to Artistworks.com, the very best way to learn a musical instrument next to private lessons. It is an AMAZING service - Tons of pre-recorded video lessons online, and the ability to send in videos of you playing, and to receive a personalized teaching response video critiquing your playing and tips on how to progress. You even get to view everyone elses' private lessons, as well. It's normally $279 for the year (a fucking STEAL), but right now they have their 50% off sale for annual memberships. $140 for a year's worth of private lessons with a master teacher??? Yep. I belong to two of their schools, and they are both wonderful. If you or someone you love would enjoy learning an instrument (also voice and DJing), tomorrow is the last day for this awesome half off deal. Enjoy!
