Thanks Paul - I'll actually be seeing The Smithereens in Santa Ana that night...paologregorio wrote:Kenny, since you live in LB, you're welcome to stop by for a "visit", since you're opposed to pre-jam jamming on principle.

attending Friday night's 
Smithereens show, you can come to the Pre-Jam Practice 
and we can always run through a few Smithereen's tunes ourselves .... 
poor substitute that we may be for the originals 
but we'll get by with a little help from all our friends

The final posting ... it's almost 2:30 AM... and I'm exhausted. Quite a fine jam it was. Once again, even with an 8-hour jam session, we ran out of time before we got to do all the songs we wanted to do.... Many thanks to Paul for coordinating today's event .
