Expect some Jammers to show up with vintage and reissue Mosrites, too.

Might bring my Jonas Ridge 87 and the sunburst '66 twelve string.

One can NEVER bring 2 many geetars to such an event. I'll be onhand 2 due the video taping this year and I'm briging a friend of mine do assist me who's an audio eggspert. I also invested in an HD camcorder so hopefully the video and audio will be improved over last year.

25 cents a week? That was my allowance in the 60's, it may be time for a cost of living talk with your Mom.

I have talked with some people who are going to come to the Ventures fan jam. This sounds like it is going to be a really fun gig! Really looking forward to this one!
