Location: 6 String Ranch | Send me separate emails on how you'd like to see that unfold, dates, timing, number of attendees, teachers, structure of the day, anything else.
Not that it can all be done but it can all be considered. |

Good size, great location and the right length.
You did a great job organizing the event and I don't think it could really be improved upon.
More attendees and it would become unwieldy.
Longer and some members would have to be disposed of.
The room at the Florida house was great cause we had 24 hour access.
I see no flaws in the original. |

...then I just remembered where I was, and who I was with, and it all fell into place. |

what are everyones thoughts on having another Matt clinic vs someone like Brad Davis, etc?
Matt was fabulous and it certainly wouldn't hurt my feelings one bit to have a refresher course from Matt every year but just wondering what everyone else thinks. |

I'm just as caught up in this almost erotic post-Amelia afterglow as anyone else but do we really need to be talkin' about the fine details for something that probably won't be announced for six months? If at all?
I'm sure we could get a lot more done by pestering Al about the possible Fall Tour.
I'm kidding, I'm kidding!! Please don't pester Al. |

Location: Boise, Idaho | I'll pester Al and blame you. My Fall is starting to fill up. I kept a couple of Thursdays through Sundays open this month when I thought the tour would be in May, so I'll have to use that time to pester Al. |

Location: 6 String Ranch | Yes, it's a good time to be planning what or if we do next year. I'm up for something. It would be best to send me your ideas by email. It helps control the wild speculation that can occasionally happen. |

Location: Latitude 39.56819, Longitude -105.080066 | Brad, I share your sentiments but if I had to choose between the Fall Tour and next years island gig, the island would win out for me, hands down.
That's why I already committed to Unca Beal to have my spot reserved!
The Fall Tour will be great if I can work my schedule around whatever the dates happen to be.
The island gig...I WILL change my schedule to accommodate :D |

Location: Phoenix AZ | I find if I plan too far ahead I miss a lot of cool stuff in the mean time. Right now I'm just focusing on a NY trip next weekend for my daughters NYU graduation, June dog trip to San Diego, and a July vacation trip to Cape Cod. I'm sure there's stuff happening in Aug, Sept, and Oct, but it's too early to get my panties in a pucker over that stuff.
Dave
PS - Hey Brad, I'm coming to a game in Ann Arbor in Oct. Maybe we can get together. Are you close by?
PSS - Hey T28, there's a Collings factory tour in November. Interested? |

Keep me in the loop on the details. I think it would be a cool tour (and a chance to visit family). |

There's a freakin nice OM2SB available that Dave was sweet enough to tempt us with. If you don't have a Collings this would be a damn fine one to grab! |
