UPDATE Wednesday morning
===== ===== ===== ====== ====== ======

The RSVPs keep coming in. A warm welcome to several of our first-time Mini Con attendees and also its nice to see some RSVPs from some old friends we haven't seen at a Jam in awhile. One suggestion, in addition to your GUITAR STANDS it might also be a good idea to bring a folding chair or camping chair or something to sit on, as it looks like we will have a good size crowd of Confluence attendees.

Remember the Jam Songs Sign Up list .... take the plunge and get in on a few tunes !

C'mon people, RSVP and sign up for songs. That sheet is looking sadly empty so far!

paologregorio · Post by **paologregorio** » Thu Aug 23, 2012 2:19 am

I think I signed up for about ten different songs. ... one on bass (Town Called Malice).

I will step aside if anyone else wants to play on any of the songs I signed up for.

Same for me. I think I've signed up for too many songs. Just filling up empty slots with songs I know. I want to socialize as well as jam.

The keyboardist from my band Full Moon Fever might join us. He plays guitar and other instruments and sings, as well as keyboard...and he loves his Rickenbackers also!

I'll do some Tom Petty if you want. I have no interest in mixing jamming with spreadsheeting, lol.

As far as puppies... don't hold your breath!!!
