The Mini Con Jam is coming in two weeks -- and we even scouted out some of the finer dining establishments in the vicinity of Backline Studios.... :shock: :? :mrgreen:

Hey, when are those "official Practices" going to start for the Mini Con Jam :?: :?: :D :D

Cheers,
Rich

One more from Saturday's "Jam-Before-the-Practice-Before-the-Mini Con".... had to lighten the pic up and make it right, as the flash had failed to go off.

And... B U M P ! ! ! ! !

So, who's up for a bit of pre-jam rehearsal at my place tomorrow and or Friday night?

Let me know, and once again, send me your confirmations, regrets, and maybes. :D

I'm looking forward to seeing everyone, and playing some more Rick tunes.

I think SFD will be playing a mini set as well.

Another good low volume prejamjam last night at my place; Rich's camera and mine both had dead batteries, and we were done before mine finished charging back up. In attendance were Bob Schneider, Brian Fitzpatrick, Collin Whitley, Dan Saifer, Rich Ferguson, and me. :D

One more tonight with just Rich, Bob, and me, and see you all tomorrow! :D

Boy, the excuses some guys come up with to avoid the "It didn't happen without pics" syndrome!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

It's probably just as well the camera's failed us last night..... :( with six guys in the one room, with all these tube amps heating up, and Collin's Light-Show 330 throwing off additional Wattage, and all the windows locked to prevent Paul's neighbors from complaining about the volume ---- we probably looked more sweaty than the Lakers did after their last play-off game ! :lol: :lol:

I wish we did have pictures of Collin's beautiful Turquoise Light Show in action though ---- definitely a show stopper !

Regards

What a great miniconfluence; everyone had a blast, and we ran out of studio time before we ran out of songs. My arms feel like they're going to fall off. Thanks to everyone for making it a success!!!

The pizza from Dino's tasted even better than last time.

We had more drummers than bassists this time, and singing drummers at that.

Details and pics to follow soon...
