Just in from Bob Antia, Catherine Johnson, and Darren Henderson:
You are invited to join the virtual Reading Circle focused on The Guitar Circle book by Robert Fripp. Series 1 began on January 8th 2022, and we now look to completion with Series 7. The Reading Circle is open to anyone who wishes to participate. Read on!
In this seventh Reading Circle series, we will be covering pages 427 to 520 over ten weekly meetings. We are fortunate to have the support of Guitar Circle staff, and hope to welcome some guest attendees.
Who is organizing this?
Bob Antia, Catherine Johnson, and Darren Henderson.
Who is invited?
This invitation is being posted in GC Facebook groups and sent to those who participated in the previous Reading Circle, along with those who have attended Guitar Circle events. Importantly this reading group is open to anyone who wishes to join. (If you aren’t a previous participant in the RC, or have never attended a Guitar Circle event, please mention this when emailing us.)
Previous participant in The Reading Circle?
Even if you were part of the prior series, please note we ask that you sign-up anew for Series 7.
New to The Reading Circle?
This book doesn’t necessarily need to be read in order, so please jump right in with us. If you have any questions, the group will assist.
When will we meet?
The group will have weekly one hour Zoom meetings on Saturdays at the U.S. times of 2:00 PM EST / 1:00 CST / 11:00 AM PST — beginning on September 7th 2024 and going through to November 9th.
What will be covered?
We will be reading from the section titled The Orchestra of Crafty Guitarists through to The Creative Moment (pages 427 to 520).
What is asked of you?
Availability, participation, and goodwill. In their own time each participant is asked to read between nine and thirteen pages each week, which we’ll then meet to discuss as a group. We ask that you commit to this for the ten-week period to the best of your ability.
If you haven’t done so already, you are asked to purchase The Guitar Circle Book by Robert Fripp, available from Burning Shed (U.K.):

(If this presents a financial hardship for you, please let us know.)
How do I sign-up?
Please send an email to rco@crefft.org so that we can add you to the participant’s list, and send you Zoom meeting information (replies will only go to the organizers).
• Please include your preferred email address and whether you wish to share your email address with other participants or not.
• If this is your first Guitar Circle-related experience, please mention this in your email.
We would love for you to join us!
Warmest wishes,
Bob, Catherine, and Darren
