I've got a great :idea: !!! Kira and I were discussing the possibility this morning on the internet....she did an admirable job trying to make it work several years ago... or was that last year ? :oops: But everyone seemed to flake out ( myself included ).
Anyway, who's in the San Francisco Bay Area and may be up for it this summer ? I'm open until the middle of August.. ( unfortunately no UK holiday this year :(
It would be great to meet up with fellow Rick-O-Philes in the area :D
Besides, Kira is getting loopy :lol: with her Rickenbackers lately !
I'm open to any area between up here in the wine country to Silicosis :P Valley
Meet up, jam or do a few we all know, sip a bit of vino :wink: or pale ale ?
Let me know with a private email and let's discuss it if anyone is interested.
We dan do it here in Sonoma County at my house depending on response, or ????? I'm totally open......

Gary ( modrock ) in Santa Rosa, ( north Bay Area )
( no band, no jam, and no gigs :( )

Any idea yet when the So Cal people are doing their yearly thing? Some might want to do both.

Sure, I'd be up for a NorCal jam. Fresno IS Northern CA, isn't it?

I'd include everything down to about Monterey, while some would draw the line at Redding. :lol: :lol: Fresno is definitely Central Valley but, hey, it's all good and everyone is welcome. 8)

Heck, when I lived in Santa Rosa, we set the line at Petaluma, just to make sure we excluded Marin...

Well, Santa Barbara is only 40 min north of L.A. and you should see all the "SB is Norcal" bumper stickers around.

Geographically, it doesn't make ANY sense, but people in SB and north sure don't want to be considered SoCal people (because we're too cool for em!)
