    I'm Looking Forward To It

    I'd like to meet some other players. Name: Chuck Foster, I'll bring a '52RI and an amp. As I live quite a distance away I'll probably stop in Livermore and pick up a bucket of chicken.

    Gear that would help out, I'll edit my lead post too, is sheet music stands. We could use a few.

    If I remember, I can bring a music stand. How about a guitar stand or 10? I can bring one of those.

    Sounds like a good time out.

    Stuff I can bring if any would like to hear/try:

    Evans JE 500 (great jazz/steel amp), MMB w/Weber
    83 Ibanez AM50

    I am a bass player so I got all that crap too if need be. (Ampeg/P-Bass)
    So someone let me know so I can plan transit.

    Food? whatever we need.

    Cherie plays a tele too (black deluxe HH thru a deluxe amp) so i assume that clears her for attendance.

    1. Ron Wolf
    2. MIM 50s Tele White, mongrel late 60s LP (yes THAT one)
    3. Mesa Studio - might bring my Blues Jr too for old times sake
    4. Could bring one of our basses but only have a small bass amp, will bring a harp or two also
    5. Jello

    Well, I'm only half joking about the jello. Hmmm, how about nachos - get those strings niceNgreasy!

    Lotis - man, that is one serious list of equipment, especially the amps!

    How does the minidisc work - do you use an "audience" mic, or take a line out from the mixer (which wouldn't catch amps not going through the board), or what? Can you burn CD's from the minidisc so that we can distribute copies to everyone who's there?

    With the minidisc I just plug in a Sony stereo mike. It records real good if I get good mike placement. I got a '64 Princeton Reverb I might bring too if I feel real ambitious. Looking forward to putting some faces and pickin' with the names. Lotis

    hoping that can i play with your toys???

    i'm hoping that i can try a few licks thru the 66 bassman. i used to have one and it sounded so very fine. and then i'd like to take a few minutes with one of the Hamel equipped Teles. i've been able to kick my GAS habit, but with this jam coming up i can feel the stirring in my gut...

    and of course my stuff is open for messing with too. tho probably the only thing that i have that's of any interest to this group is my Mesa-Boogie Studio Caliber amp.

    and, hmmm, if people are open to an acoustic jam out back or something, i'll bring my Martin too.

    this is going to be sooo kewl!!!!

    Ronetele -

    Definitely bring your Martin. I'm going to bring my Martin, mandolin and fiddle, and others are bringing acoustics, so I think that an acoustic jam would definitely be a possiblity.

    Could be time for a 45-minute jam on "Sally Goodin'"!
