Location: SoCal | Matt,
What time do the festivities start on 5/31? Do we bring guitars as we did to Temecula?
Any other SoCal guys & gals coming?
Last time Matt was there, Joe had Mexican food available in the back room. Fred and I had a couple of guitars with us (47RI, 1687RI, '79 1687, and Fred's Custom Elite that he won at the Tour).
Matt started playing the 47RI which started an impromptu jam session in the back room, almost shut the store down as almost all of the GuitarTrader staff were in the room watching or playing instead of working the store. Actually delayed the Chop Shop.
Fun part of this is the GuitarTrader had gotten and sold a 1687RI but the staff hadn't played it...probably the 1st time they had an opportunity to play the top of the line, as well as the slothead. |

W. LA Music 28th and 29th
San Diego 31st (both Matt and Brad)
Another "should have been" there opportunity...come to one, come to all. And it is FREE. Bring a guitar or two.
Ordered an extra "The Art of Wood and Tone", the Takamine book that is only available through the TakamineForum (supplies getting low). We will present to our SoCal Kaman Rep (Joe Montoya) for his past and present support of Matt and the OFC.

Location: Tennessee | I'll be doing both clinics at WestLA music. One of my boys will be with me ... we'll pack both an O and a Tak. A few other local musician friends will be there one night or the other. Moody's gonna drag a couple of folks up from the OC as well. Any other SoCal members going to be there? Let me know ... Moody and I are working on a pre- and post-event activity schedule which will probably involve food and drink. |

BTW - I took that photo in Beal's music room. In the actual poster, there is no smoke ... it's just bounceback from my flash. Sometimes the greatest things are born of mistakes and dumb luck. |

| The trouble with going to a matt clinic is you learn stuff. And over the last 40 years I've learned that the more I learn the more there is I don't know. Stay ignorant - Moody's right; 4 chords is enough for anyone.
Sorry matt, but I still haven't got over how easy your mode system is after spending years just trying to memorise that shit. Where were you when I needed you all those years ago? |

Who's coming to the WestLA clinic? I'll be there along with my son Mad Max ... rumor has it some others from the LA area will be making special guest appearances. Anyone want to admit it? If so, maybe we ought to plan on some food and beverage before and/or after? Matt, you available to hang with us a bit? There's no Huddle House nearby, but I do know where there's a rocking little Der Weinerschnitzel ... :D |

Who's going to be in San Diego on the 31st for Matt and Brad?
So far, I only have confirm of myself and Rudy (couple of others are possible)...disappointing when you consider the opportunity. |
