The usual suspects are getting together next Saturday for an afternoon of Rickenbacker show'n'tell. It will be a good opportunity for us to give Aitch a send off, as he departs for his trip to the US and Canada the next day. Confirmed starters are Greg, Aitch, Ron and Shane.
I'd also like to extend an invitation to new Forum members based in Victoria. Confluences are a great way to put a face to the name and to share our toys! If you're interested in coming along please pm me, or shoot an email to dtrott at optusnet dot com dot au.

Make sure to make an accounting of all the instruments before Aitch leaves for the US!

I imagine the send off would be you guys getting all drunk and then tying up Aitch to a Wiley Coyote style mega Acme bottle rocket that says "To USA" on it.rick_ovic wrote:It will be a good opportunity for us to give Aitch a send off, as he departs for his trip to the US and Canada
Have a great time, guys!
The JETGLO finish name should be officially changed to JETGLO ROCKS! 
Re: Melbourne Mini-Confluence Saturday July 26
Jeez. I reckon these guys will use any minor excuse to have a barbie and a beer.
Have a great time and don't give the old bugger too much of a send off, given that he says he's older than dirt I think he should have a warning sticker on his bags and his forehead

Ron showed us his tremendous "Bluebird" conversion 330 to 370...what a gorgeous guitar in the flesh. Greg went straight for a '60 360 Capri:-
