If I bring my Gretsh Baritone (tuned E-E an octave below a guitar) with Bigsby, can I play lead?

Yep, I'd love to play La Grange. I added that one to the list of songs.
Hey Skip, how about "Time Of The Season"? Where has Gary been? He knows that one also!

Mark, welcome to the forum. Good drummers are certainly welcome!

I don't remember "Time of the Season". Sorry! Happy to give up The One I Love and looking forward to La Grange. Think if I started growing a beard now......................nah!

Dave (guitar) and Scott (drums) from Progknowsys have confirmed. Multiple time signatures in da house!

Datru -- yeah, we added this one to the jam specially for you. Go ahead and add your name !

When I signed up for all those rhythm parts, it was just in case no one else did. I'd gladly trade off a few if anyone wants to dive in!

(Get it??? "Dive in." Like dive in to the surf? Get it? ahh, nevermind. )

Thanks David. I'm doing that with all players; myself included. I appreciate the guys who stepped up first, and want to make sure they get enough stage time, but I will sub in other guys. I hope we get a good number of participants.
Pat, Dave D, David T-If you have particular songs you definitely WANT to play on-let me know. I don't want to inadvertantly sub for you on those.
Looking good so far! Thanks guys!
Now if only my new MB Rick 620 arrives in time.

Skip --- I recall you started getting RAS symptoms after the jam session at Gary's place. Now it's hit you full throttle 10 days before the Confluence !

You may be severely contagious for the dreaded Post-Confluence RAS, which is a highly uncureable strain and does not respond well to the usual remedies !

Congrats on the nice Blue 620 !!!
