I agree. This gives all members the opportunity to showcase their music, and/or present a workshop. Pre-scheduled time slots also give attendees the ability to pick and choose what events they want to be there for. I would also like to suggest the idea of forming combos, which would provide experience for typically 'solo' one man arranger players to play with acoustic instrument players. Combo performances could be scheduled for the last day (Sunday afternoon/evening), with the first day giving time for band members to rehearse with each other.

Also, what hours will the Clubhouse be available for our use ? Is the Clubhouse available during the evening as well as the day?

Here are latest numbers from the responses posted so far:

'For Certain' Attendees (9 people):

- Bill Forest (Bebop)
- Scott Yee (Scottyee)
- Lukitoh
- DNA
- Frank Bez (Frank Bez)
- Boo Hargis (Brickboo)
- Nigel Spence (Nigel), Synthzone Administrator
- Claude (Wizboy)
- Eric Bott (Eric,B)

Strong Interest & Possible Attendees (6 people):

- Terry Telson (Trtjazz)
- Don Mason (DonM)
- Mike (Nardoni2002)
- Paul Curzan (SBPC)
- Jonas (KN_Fan)
- Tom Griglock (TomTomSF)

The above total already meets the mimimum number of people (15) I had originally set so it appears this event is a definite GO now! I agree with Bebop that to both insure a geniune commitment that $10 per attendee be sent to Bebop (Bill Forrest) to cover the cost of clubhouse usage & cleaning ($100). Perhaps funds collected beyond that could go towards refreshments. The room capacity is 100 people so I assume friends and/or spouses are welcome too, right Bebop? Bebop, perhaps you could privately email your 'mailing address' to all the above interested attendees. Please keep us updated as the checks arrive.This event promises to be a once in a lifetime arranger keyboard experience for all. I've already marked my calendar and sending my check in today. Hope even more people here can join us.

Scott
