Location: Colorado Rocky Mountains | Hey, hey! Colorado! I think I'll take a short trip up north. Pre-registration required? Sign-up on the spot? Look forward to seeing you again, Matt. Guess I'll need to bring a guitar with me. |

I just saw a local club on the way home from work today that said "The Monsters" were gonna be playing near the end of October....and I thought wouldn't that be cool if it was Matt and the gang and the owners just spelled it wrong.
Being a glutton for punishment, I will probably try to attend both of the Chop Shops! |

Location: Colorado Rocky Mountains | Stephen said he was going to attend the Longmont show last evening, and I'm attending the Fort Collins show tonight. I called the shop to verify that we should bring a guitar for the interactive part. He said there probably wasn't room. I know Matt is a phenom guitar instructor and workshop facilitator, but doing it without guitars for the attendees may be pushing the limit. That's like teaching swimming without a pool. I'm taking a guitar just in case. |

Location: Cicero, NY | I hit the wineries in your area every once in a while Max (there only an hour and a half away from me) and, while I wouldn't compare them to Napa, there are a couple that produce some fine grapes. I'll be through the area with some friends in a couple of weeks in fact. Big on whites, real thin on reds. And I'd love to see Matt come through Upstate as well! |

Hope that helps. |

There is a section on the OFC board you can access through the drop down menu. |

Location: Colorado | Wow guys. I feel bad for not keeping up with this board lately. I certainly would have gotten my sorry self to the Fort Collins clinic had I known it was happening. It would have at least been a great opportunity to meet some of the family. |
