Location: GA USA | ANNOUNCEMENT: Fall Southern Jam
October 17-19, 2008
Guys, we have a tremendous opportunity for some jammage.
First of all, The Artist currently known as Richard will be coming to Atlanta for 10 days in October, arriving Friday the 17th. Richard will be collecting his 08C and would love for YOU to have the opportunity to play it.
Then as though things could get any better, War Eagle has a cabin with 500 acres, pond, and horseback riding trails, located about 20 minutes North of Waynesville NC that he has most graciously offered for a jam.
Please consider this the official announcement, simulcast on two forums, in the spirit of the Olympics.
The plan as of now is to congregate at War Eagle's home Friday night and strike out from there into the wilderness, perhaps Saturday morning. Eagle says that anybody who wants to stay a few extra days and jam some more is welcome.
WHO'S IN? |

Location: South of most, North of few | As of now, it looks like I will be able to make it, maybe sans the wife and kid. We'll see what comes of it as it gets closer. If I come by myself, I'll probably bring an air mattress and stay in the cabin. If she decides to come, I'll bring the tent. |

Location: Sydney, Australia | This should be great. The first night I'll be fresh off a 24 hour journey so I'd probably fall asleep lying on broken glass. Might want a bed the second night.
Many thanks War Eagle and thanks to Jas for organising this and transporting me. |
