Humpty Dumpty (aka: Jef Cierniak) will be at the conference on sunday and will play anytime, with anyone. See you there!

Who is the Musical Director for Sunday night (in other words - who do I talk to?)

Also, can we make arrangements with the Conference Center to use the big space for set-up and rehearsal on Sunday?

My early understanding was that Ken Jacob was going to do that organizational effort for Sunday, with the assumption (at the that time) that it would be fairly relaxed, and perhaps mostly solo & duo moments. All that may have changed over time tho.
Ken B.

I'll be glad to try anything. I can usually do OK with chord charts. I'm dyslexic when it comes to reading music, and I have been so for the 40 years I've tried to do it. As a result, though, I have very good ears, and can usually keep up with things that aren't too manic.

So I'm open for whatever happens the whole time. Hopefully it'll be like an Irish music session during the entire conference, where people can drop in, drop out, and just have fun playing.

I plan to put together a program for Sunday night on Sunday afternoon. No music direction, just the order of folks playing probably.

On the question of a rehearsal on Sunday, we'll have the big room (The Lodge) in the afternoon to setup. Assuming we can get things set by say 4PM, it's all yours until dinner at 6:30.

Ken

Okay Ken, that's great. You're going to start setting up at what... 3:50 (give yourself some slack for the non Bose stuff right)?

Ken (jazzhorn1) asked me if there was a way to do a mass email to all the folks who are coming (especially the ones who will might be be playing on Monday night).

I don't have a way to get everyone's email. So I suggested to Ken that we get everyone who is coming who might even consider playing (or not), to send him an email.

So this is it.

Anything at all in the body of the message and in no time Ken will have everybody's email.

AND - you might add a cell phone contact (for ease). I am leaving by 2 pm Pacific today Thursday - and won't have access to email for perhaps 24-36 hours as we travel. If there is important business, don't hesitate to call my call phone.

See you in Ashland!

Ken, you will have wireless access in the lobby at the conference center. Wired access in the rooms.

Safe travels - see you Saturday.

Everyone else - if you want to add your contact info - you can do it here:

Conference Contact Info

Just click edit at the top of the page, create a new account (under 30 sec), then follow the format I used for Ken near the bottom of the page.

I can scrub that page after the conference so that info will only be online until Wednesday next week.

Kenny B,

Right now, I've got you down for a music rehearsal on Sunday in the Lodge from 4-6.

Kenny J.

When is Kenny G going to show up.

Kenny G can't make it. We'll have to make-do with Kenny F-sharp.

Beautiful. BTW - it's 5:30pm eastern, and the Eagles have landed. The Warren is a beautiful place!

Hey cool! My band plays a few Eagles tunes. We do a pretty good Hotel California. Maybe we'll get to jam with them....

Just finished the last revision on my paper and drawing up speaker's notes for my presentation. This is gonna be GREAT!

A little excited Andrew?

Yeah, me too.

We're all excited. I'm going to try & update from the plane this time (like I did from the road last time). I won't be able to post pics without ST's help, & he'll be in the air too. I don't fly out until 11:40 pm tonight & land in Boston at 4:20 am, though, so I doubt anyone will see my postings. I wonder if that 4:20 takes into account the time change I'll be experiencing mid-flight.

Everyone remember to change your time to STANDARD TIME so you don't miss the evening session.

I am excited to meet you guys, see you soon.

Stay dry..

Neil

Hey Andrew - will your band guys be here at the the Conference? That would be really cool to bring another prepped band in to do what you do best (Chuck Nemitz will be bringing his guys in for a couple toonz). Waddaya say?

I'm sitting at DIA waiting for the flight. It's 10:41 pm & I leave at 12:15 am - delayed from 11:40 pm. I'm excited, but I'm really tired & hope to sleep a bunch on the flight. I'm a bad flyer (one reason I drove to Big Sur) & I have dramamine ready to take in a bit here.

I land at Logan in Boston at 4:50 am EST & I'm not sure if that includes the time change. Hopefully my cell will have the correct time in Boston. (I hate traveling over a time-change weekend.)

I had trouble keeping my main bag under 50 lbs & thought they were going to charge me more for the guitar. I ended up having to carry-on my camera & CD's so that I could bring some for the folks that would like one. I'm sure I don't have enough.

Guess I'd better take some dramamine.
