I have no doubts that you'll walk away satisfied :D
Slight change in schedule for us. We're going to hit the road tonight and stay over about 1/2 way - Staunton, Va. I believe, and then travel the rest of the way tomorrow. Believe it or not, I already drove 5 hours round trip today to Baltimore for a customer meeting.
I'm probably packing light - 1 or 2 guitars - as there just isn't enough time to get it all together. |

Just for back from the Jam...what a great time and I hated to leave...but I didn't think I'd be able to go at all so thats OK...
Beautiful Location, Beautiful People, and Beautiful Guitars...Yes, Mike, Ify was OK when I left...
here are some photo's:...remember this is day one of a three day Jam; Otto, Crimson Lake, Nicky, Jas and a couple of others were just arriving and TnT and family were on the way...so the guitars are just a small taste of what was there...
We had a blast! Keith's dad had us doubled over with his stories and songs...and TJ managed a guitar deal within ten minutes of arriving...it went something like this: "Wow, TJ what a beauty...(TJ) It's for sale...actually, everything is for sale...and it looks great on you too...How Much? Well I paid Three fiddy for it but I couldn't let it go for less than Eight...but I will take a trade" And, he did!(lol, sorry TJ, you know we love ya!)
Well, here are a couple of pic's and check out the ning album as well: remember to click on each photo for a super sized view!
NING Album: Day One...
I'm told the jar contains holy water...(really thats what I was told)...Great Smokies Holy Water...(I don't know but I wouldn't use it for anything other than paint thinner)...although with these usual suspects anything is possible...
What a great bunch of folks! The music was fine and the guitars were impressive...the food was out of this world and the weather held off for today...Just a Good for the mind, body and soul kind of day!
All Righty!! |
