The weekend after might make a better plan.

Why not do both? !

Bookend minicons... NAMMinicon at Gary's...NAMMiniCLAUSONcon?!

GRAHAMinicon at...hmm, maybe we could have that one at a pub or something. We could book it at "The Olde Shippe" English Pub and Graham could feel right at home...ah, just what he'd want, right? Come to CA to get served English Pub food by expat fellow Britons...

Seriously though, is Friday night going to be difficult for most NAMM attendees/people who work at RIC?

Please let me know? I'm aiming for maximum attendance and fun. It would be great to see as many of you as possible.

Graham, no excuses, start practicing. I'm a lousy jammer as well, but I managed to pull off a few songs last time. You're a Jam and Byrds fan, so learn a few of those songs. Let us know what you pick and I'll learn them as well. Should be simple; the Jam was a trio, and there a lot of Byrds fans among us.

haha, trust me. The Olde Shippe is great (cos that's all we have), but anybody who's actually been to or lived in the UK will laugh at it!!

I'm a good hand with DIY, especially with a roller and a brush-I don't even need to use tape to paint a straight line on trim.

Anyway, when do you folks want to do this thing? It sounds like NAMM weekend is going to be impossible for our out of town members and RIC Staff, so I'm thinking the weekend after. Is that weekend more doable for most of you? Let me know, eh?

Oh, and if y'all want Mexican, SUPERMEX is available TO GO.

Not if I blindfold you and spin you around a few times first!!

I think the weekend after NAMM would be better.

Mmmmm, Supermex!!

What ever is most workable, for the most attendees, is OK by me.

Bump!!!!!

I want to book this thing on Saturday, January 24th. Who's in? Who knows a drummer other than Collin and me? We don't want anyone's arms to fall off from four hours of drumming!

Let me know, eh? You can also PM me as well for finer points of detail.

Cheers,

Paul

It seems that good drummers (even lousy ones) are hard to find lately.

Maybe I'll invite another one of my buddies, "Nervous Pete".

So, who can make it Saturday the 24th?

Me!

Cool!!! Thanks Rich. I'll be in touch this week; I know some of us wanted to get in a few rehearsals beforehand.

By the way, this arrived today, so I'll be playing it at the minicon!!!! More pics to follow; Larry had a professional photographer take some shots fo the finished project. I'll post everything in a separate thread with a huge thank you to Larry.
Back to the Minicon...Can everyone make it that weekend? Wake up folks!!!
