Please let me know asap if you plan to come. I can perhaps arrange for discounted rooms when I get an idea of the numbers involved.
So far response has been very good!

Damn! I just got a film to produce for a foreign tool manufacturer, with a completion date of May 1. It might be possible to slip out at the last minute for 1/2 a day, but can't count on it. Won't need accomodations, for sure, but might be able to "keep the plane running" and visit for several hours.

Folks, have a GREAT TIME!

I wish it was not far. I would love to come and learn something from the pros.
You need to have one in Michigan ;-)

Barty,

Finish filling out your profile, I don't know where you are in Michigan. I would love to host a jam here during the summer.

None of you folks need to worry about going to Louisanna, it's almost like being in the United States, so cut out the lame excusses. The only thing you need to be concerned about is if you go golfing with Don, watch your wallet.

Can't make it to LA, but surely can to Michigan in the summer. In fact, I'll be in Mt Pleasant in July.

It will be video-taped by Joe Lee Richards from Arkansas.
So far I have about 15 who are coming "for certain", and quite a few more who want to come but can't commit yet.
It'll be FUN!

Tom,
I am in Lake Orion, MI (Detroit area). I would be up for a summer jam session or maybe an arranger comparo where we could benchmark Yamaha, Korg, Roland, etc. against one another.

It's getting close! We have folks coming from Florida, Canada, Michigan, Maryland, Arkansas, Kentucky, lots from Texas and Louisiana.
The actual Jam will be Saturday evening, April 12.
Get off the fence and commit! We WILL talk about you if you don't come.

Ketron will be having a workshop at this fest on April 12. If you want to come and check out some gear, that would be nice, ask some questions, get some personal time, AUDYA, SD4 and other upcoming products?

Suggestions are welcomed of course.

My wife and I are watching the DVD I ordered from Joe Richards of the Shreveport, La Jam.

Great stuff folks we both enjoyed seeing SZ members perform. Looks like everyone had a fun time. Well worth $25 to see some of my SZ friends in action.

Kudos to Don Mason, ( you're playing Route 66 as I write this) Ed Shoemaker,(love Shake Rattle and Roll) Hammer, Hank B. Billy Ledbetter, Bill (semilive music) and all the others some who I had never heard before.


BTW the quality of the video is terrific we're watching it on our 22 inch screen iMac.
