Mujitsu and Tairaku's Shakuhachi BBQ

I suppose since I have already posted a question or two, that I should introduce myself.  I started playing ( if you can call it that ) shakuhachi about 2 months ago, and will start lessons soon.  I have three flutes now two 1.8 and a 1.9.  I have enjoyed the music for many years and have wanted to play for a long time.  I also am interested in other Japanese arts and culture, including cha no yu, ceramics, swords, and netsuke, along with tribal art.  I also play Native American flute, and didgeridoo...look forward to attending the Colorado camp in the summer of 2010 and meeting some of you.  Mark
