Hi all,
Announcement (and official cat herding attempt
)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So Cal Minicon in the OC, Saturday January 24th, noon to 6 PM at Backline Rehearsal Studios in Garden Grove, CA.
Backline is located at:
7251 Garden Grove Blvd Garden Grove, CA 92841 - (714) 895-7345

We have the Showcase room, complete with P.A., drums, bass amp, and guitar amp. I'll bring at least one AC 30, along with my Ricks.
Our total cost is $150 for the six hour block. I couldn't get any longer than that unfortunately; a band's coming in at 6 PM.
The best deal I was able to negotiate was $25 for 6 hours, as opposed to the standard rate of $27/hr. They normally don't give breaks on Saturdays according to management, but they were willing to give me $2 off per hour, so our total cost is $150 for 6 hours.

As far as refreshments go, I imagine a civilized bunch such as ourselves can find ways to bring in what we want; I'm going to have a cooler there with some snacks. I always manage to smuggle in booze when I need to in a gig bag or something. So long as we're discreet, I don't think anyone will mind; we're not a bunch of teenagers...well, at least not on the outside anyway.
Here's the list I have so far:
Alison W
Collin Whitley +drummer buddy
Dane Wilder
Gary Clauson
Graham Griffiths (special out of town guest!)
Joey Vasco
Kenny Howes
Rich Ferguson
Scott Jehlik + drummer buddy
Me, plus (I hope) a couple of other Rick Nuts and a drummer buddy as well
All right, anyone else? Let me know!!! It would be great to see any and every local, or out of town forumite who can make it there in attendance!
Graham gets here Thursday IIRC, so I'll see if we can start working on some songs. Kenny, I think Joey and I would like to join you in some Cheap Trick songs this time.
