Thanks to everyone for your responses.

Finally got back home. I had a terrific time in Central/Southern California, performing, meeting, and playing with my Southern California Synthzone buddies. I really enjoyed the opportunity to see Eric play his Yamaha 9000pro and Paul on his Solton MS60. Eric really shines on contempo pop rhythms & disco, and Paul delivers the goods when it comes to the traditional stuff: the MS60 banjo sounds outstanding. I especially enjoyed playing with Paul's clarinetist friend Art: Great improviser. It was also fun to have Eric's 9000pro & my Tyros SIDE by SIDE to play & compare. Both are great boards, but just in DIFFERENT ways. To top this off, it was a pleasure to perform together with Eric's wife Claudia the song: Unforgettable, as well as hear Eric & Claudia showcase their duo song material.

Bebop: sorry I couldn't meet up with you and Jann in Pismo Beach this weekend. Had to get back home in time to do my Valentine's Day gigs.



Donny. It was truly a BLAST!

Unfortunately, at my concert in Avila Beach (because I was on stage), I wasn't able to take any pictures . I wish I could've though, because the building (built of wood & stone) with beautiful beamed ceilings, has a large fireplace, and hard wood floors, making it (both visually & acoustically) an ideal performance venue.

On the other hand, here's a link to some pictures I took at Frank's place in Avila Beach, as well as a few pics I took at the get together at Paul Curzan's house in Goleta:

Here also are some 'video capture' images of the video Paul's lovely wife, Evelina, recorded of our get together jam (2/10) which included musicians: Paul, Eric & Claudia Bott, Art, and myself:

I now look forward to the opportunity of meeting and playing music (in person) with more Synthzone forum buddies in the future. Thanks again to Nigel for creating the opportunity for all this to happen. I realize that without the Synthzone forum, we would probably have never met. I really encourage others to take the step to meet other forum members 'in person' (but at your own risk of course) as well. I look forward to jamming again, as well as finally meeting (in person) MANY other of you Synthzone forum member buddies around the world out there. Thumbs up to the Synthzone Arranger KB forum, quite simply, the BEST place on the internet for arranger keyboardists.
