Now I'm really depressed about not having been able to go. It's already on next years schedule, though...one way or another.

The guitar was Kim K's. The foot was Templeman's.
The llama actually belong to the lady at the factory who does the abelone binding inlays.

I can't believe they even let him in. Maybe we do need to tighten up the borders.

" Maybe we do need to tighten up the borders."

Then some people might have a lot of trouble leaving.

Was this an OFC Tour or a meeting of Weight Watchers?

It went great. First half only, standing in for a sax player (?) - I can do George Benson impersonations til the cows come home. Unfortunately people alweays think "wow, that guy does good GB impersonations". Nobody ever thinks, "wow, it's GB." Is it cos I is white? Or is it cos I just ain't any good? Delete as appropriate.

BTW - if anyone ever wants to know how to improvise, just listen to GB's version of Take Five on the Bad album. It may well be the greatest thing you ever heard.

...and to think that I have been relying on old episodes of "Who's Line is it Anyway."

Glad the gig went well.

schroeder,

and why didn't you contribute to the home recording thread we have going? Having a member throw out a little GB would be awesome.

If anyone has the talent and creat a decent gallery of the pictures from each years tours, I would be glad to work with you and post/host it here. I just don't have the time to create it. Not talking about just a link, but if you can put together a "tour pictures" model for each, catptions and such, I will host it for ya. I think I have over 1000 pictures accumulated from the first two tours.

Photoshop 7 can make good galleries, pretty much automatically with thumbs and all. Really fast. The only real slowdown would be captioning individual photos. I also have another good gallery program. I could put it together. What you might want to consider would be to send a set of 24 pics for one thing, that can all take the same heading, another 24 of something else. It could be done pretty easily. I design and maintain our church's web site. There is a quick gallery I made for a recent ladies' retreat you can see... nhbaptist.org

Again, like you, Mr. O, my issue is time. But as I said, anyone with Photoshop can export a folder of pix as a web gallery.

t28 - I don't own any recording stuff at all, whatsoever or in any way shape or form. That would be why. And given my technical competence it is perhaps just as well.

Well, then I guess myself, along with Jeff, Noah, Tony, Dave, and anyone else interested will just have to hop on a plane and check you out at a local pub that serves warm beer and fish wrapped in newspaper! :D

Did anybody get a pic of the 12 fret nylon string in the demo room? It was next to the koa guitars. I loved that thing and could consider selling my country artist and getting one.

The lady who brought the Lamas to the parking lot after the tour was blonde haired and pressed the frets in the finger board, as her DAY JOB... She said she had owned the Lamas for 11 years...

The lady that did the Abalone inlay work was dark haired and did not have any Lamas... She had been working at Ovation for at least 15 yrs...
