    New England Jam!!! The Fellowship of the Guitar!

    If any of you remember the jams at the Windmill in Stratford - we have had some really great times - good music and lots of laughs and fellowship! An old friend has booked the joint for Saturday, April 20th - It would be nice if we could get some RaCha Cha friends to attend - You too, Kenny!!! Any other forum members are also welcome. If you've attended one in the past, you know these are premier events. I'm sure we'll have room to put folks up at Casa de Gibsonjunkie) that has it's own rewards - including steaks on the grill.

    Re: New England Jam!!! The Fellowship of the Guitar!

    I'm going to see if the nameless one can move it to a week later - I am traveling the day before and assuming flights are on time (and how often does that happen) I won't be getting in until midnight on Friday night.

    Chuck - you are one of the reasons the jams are so much fun! Try dragging the Crossfyre dudes with you.

    Nick,
    A week later would be huge. I just was reminded by Mrs. OSA that she will be in Florida on the 20th, and I may need to be in Seoul two days later.

    Re: New England Jam!!! The Fellowship of the Guitar!

    I'd have to check with Mrs. Jangle too but the 27th would probably work for me...then again, don't make the change on my account because with all my gigging lately I have the potential to get myself into the doghouse with her...

    It's about an hour - hour 1/2. I'd gladly meet up with you sometimes if schedule allows.

    Re: New England Jam!!! The Fellowship of the Guitar!

    rGood news is my Korea trip is looking more like earlier April or late this month now. I'll probably pop over to China for a couple days and be back well before any scheduling issues, but I still have the 20th tied up since the Mrs. will be in Florida and I need to be here to give the dog his insulin shots.

    Not sure I can get Monday off. But I'll check. BTW I just got back from Danbury but it was a whirlwind one night down-and-back.

    It's a GO! I just heard Troy T will also be coming. Should be a good time for all. If anybody needs a place to stay, Casa de Gibsonjunkie has some space. Warning - Red Meat and fire will be involved.

    What's with the harmonica free zone comment? Is that a rule?

    Re: New England Jam!!! The Fellowship of the Guitar!

    I'll be checking with Mrs. Mikey and my docs to see if I can swing this.
    I'd be really happy to come down and see you folks.
    More later. Chucko, up for a passenger? maybe I'll bring some stuff to sell. If I do, I'll list them here first so I can let you all bring some cash for the purchase. May 19th? right?
    Love ya all

    Docs tell me the trip is a no-go. Guess I have toomany faulty parts going on right now. Besides that, I kind of feel like I've been shot at and missed, and shit at and hit most days.
    Have a real good time guys!
