Hi All,

The music is still playing in my head. 3 days of some of the best playing around. It was like an indoor mini Woodstock, well you get the picture.
It was really wonderful to meet everyone and put faces to the music. There was just so much talent in the room.

The ECJ team would really like to thank everyone for their support of this endeavor. Thanks to both those who attended and those who were there in spirit. We could definitely feel the presence of many of you.

Those that attended felt they never got so much music and food for $10. What a combination, great, good and cheap.

The hotel staff was not only very good and accommodating but they also enjoyed the music as well.

I especially what to thank Fran and Marge, Dan and Carolyn and Cindy for all they contributed to the putting this together.

I have a lot of pictures and some movies to share but it may take a bit of time to get them on the jam site. I have a lot going on this week then I’m off to New Orleans for a week.

After expenses, we still have $50 left from the money we collected that we will be donating to the forum.

Thanks You Again. You all are GREAT.

Heather, a big "THANK YOU" to you, Fran, Carolyn, Dan and all the others that helped organize the ECJ. It was a fantastic weekend and I certainly enjoyed listening to all the participants. It was equally satisfying putting the faces and personalities with the names we've come to appreciate. Have a great week in NO and thanks again for making it so enjoyable.

Heartfelt thank to all our American friends for making we Brits so welcome Special thanks to Heather, Fran and Carolyn for keeping us all well fed and organised and to Bob Hendershot for ferrying us around the area.
Roger and I are transferring to a hotel in Orlando tomorrow (Monday) to sample the delights of Sea World, Universal Studios and finally Disney world on Wednesday, thanks to Bob and Sue, before flying back to UK on Thursday.

It has been a very memorable and enjoyable experience. It was great to meet up with all the attendees.

Roger and Bill

Thank you,
Heather, Dan, and Caroyln,
for the 224 photos of your east cost jam,
which I have down loaded.
It’s nice to be able to share some of the atmosphere,
of the occasion with you.
a click on the small photo brings up a large, clear, detailed
version, which files my screen.
Thank you for your effort.

WOW! THanks so much for the terrific pictures! Would love to have been there! Maybe next time!

Heather! I think it was your picture...playing a "stacked" duo of KB's??? The top one a 7K....was the bottom one a 6K? This is just what I want to do with mine! Looks like a lot of fun was had by all who attended!

Does anyone want to come to my RV park in S.E. NM to play some KB music with me for as long as you want? Most likely I will be here all summer...We have Wi-Fi here 24/7....Bring your own RV & KB too!

Elizabeth, I think you are talking about Harry Babcock's Roland Piano/KN7000 setup. See Pic D2-52. You should have heard his performances. Fabulous!

Hi All,

The Site is up and running today. I don't know why you could not access it.

I wanted to say a special thanks to Bob Riffle for setting up a video camera that ran through the TV so we could see the keyboards as people played. (See D2-55)

Sometime we got to see the keyboards and sometimes the lobby as the hotel security cameras provided some interference. But it still helped.

I have some videos I'll be posting once I find a place for them. I'm not certain the ECJ site can hold them.

Thanks everybody for a great weekend. We really enjoyed meeting all of you. I especially enjoyed the jamming. A whole lot of talent........ The stacked keyboards were a Roland KF-90 Digital piano on the bottom & a KN-7000 on top. They are not midied together.

Heather and attendees,

Thank you for all of your efforts in planning/organizing this event as I had a great time meeting everyone, playing/jamming and exchanging ideas with our instruments. I think the size of the meeting room was ideal for the number of participants. It was an entertaining and enjoyable experience.
I hope all of the out of towners and from across the pond had a great time in the Orlando area.

Mark

Hi All,

Contrary to my last post I’ll not be putting the video’s on my site. It seems that no matter how I do it I just don’t have the room for more than 1.

If someone would like to post them I’ll be happy to email them 1 at a time. Each file is between 5 and 7 mb. There are 10 of them in Quicktime format(.mov).

Jonas (KN_Fan). Yep, made it to 2 out of the 2 SZ jams held on both coasts. I suppose I've become a SZ Jam junkie. Better watch out dude cuz I might even show up in Portland, OR if you decide to sponsor a jam there.
