Been out sailing for the past couple days, and pondering the Keys Jam. For a number of folks, it's just a one day drive from their south Florida homes, while for others, such as DonM, it could be two or more days unless he decides to fly to Miami and rent a car.
In that light, I thought, "Hey, this is a tropical Paradise, at least as far as I'm concerned. What could be better in the dead of winter than playing music in the shade of swaying coconut palms, sugar white sand, turquoise water, 75 to 80 degrees, at poolside, or bayside, with hundreds of folks in the audience? A lot of folks dream about playing in places like this and never get the opportunity.
Therefore, I think that instead of a one-day jam, this should be at least three days of jamming with your Synthzone buddies, having a ball, sipping Margarattas, and rockin to the music. I know out wives will love it, lounging by the pool, sipping their favorite drinks from coconut cups, enjoying sumptuous meals under the stars, OH YEAH! Who knows, we may even be able to attract the California contingent to this event.
On Monday, I'll contact the manager at Sombrero Resort and see if I can get a special deal, lower priced rooms at the height of tourist season, and they get to have some of the nations best, OMB entertainers at no charge. I think that would be a win-win situation. How about you folks? What's your opinion? Would this be something where we could get a dozen or more Synthzone OMB entertainers to attend?
I await your responses,
Almost forgot, while most of the Synthzone OMB guys and gals will either fly or drive to Marathon, this old codger will take a more leisurely mode of transportation. Granted, it will take a month or more for me to get there, but at my age, I'm really not in a hurry to do anything anymore - that's why I bought a sailboat. The attached video was from today's sail.
