Trippy – The Guitar is taking a trip. All the way around the world, from hand to hand and land to land!
Trippy – The Guitar is a fundraising initiative for Modern Guitar Harmony (MGH) in order to develop and upgrade the MGH website properly, to fund guitar harmony courses that everyone can follow for free, to fund the release of Mick Goodrick material (including books) which have not yet been released yet.
MGH is aiming to establish a Mick Goodrick Foundation so any excess money raised will go towards the creation of the Foundation.
Trippy’s trip will start in Cork, Ireland and will be passed on from hand to hand and from land to land. Sometimes a seat on an aeroplane will need to be booked when Trippy has to fly overseas so please contribute towards Trippy’s journey (and other initiatives) when you can.
Check out the Trippy Facebook page (with videos and pics etc) here.
Contributions of all sizes are welcome!
