TFF/LPF Jam Interest Please Read

[Offshore Angler]

Hi all, very long time since I've posted here. Glad to see some of the old timers still doing well!

I'm trying to see if there is sufficient interest to get one of our old forum jams/meetups going.

Why? We have a very dedicated member across the hall that lives in Brazil, and we are trying to give him an opportunity to come here and jam with his buds.

Where? Good question. We are considering either somewhere in the NYC/Connecticut area or NYS Finger Lakes Region. I'm looking at some famous locations.

When? I'd guess this summer.

New Technology (well for the jams) - We intend to livestream the whole proceedings and even do interviews with members, so even if you live in another continent, you can watch and give real time feedback.

There will be a small suggested -aka non-mandatory- donation to play (just a tip jar so If you choose to contribute or not it's anonymous.) I will send 100% of the funds to the forum owners.
We'll supply a pro band and sound system and backline. All you need to do is get there and play. All guitar brands welcome. Players of all skill levels will be accommodated and we'll make you sound good.

If interested let me know. I need at least 10 people to make it worthwhile.

Can we recapture the vibe of the old days? I think we can do even to better with the advent of new technology. We're also open to any and all suggestions on how to make if fun and attractive to members.


Thanks all,

Chuck

So, should I overwrap my Tune-O-Matic or not?

I could come- Charliechitlins I could pick you up. If you do it in Seneca I will coerce Big Al to be there.

A fantastic idea Chuck.

As a contributing member of the crew that throws, I mean perfectly organises down to the finest detail, the UK LPF meets together, the value of these events is enormous, so much fun.

Build it and they will come.

Your British Pals wish you well, hope it goes.

Looks like it's going to happen, got most of the crew from the old days of the jams coming. Like I said, we'll livestream and record it so everyone who can't make it can enjoy. Venue is in NYS Finger Lakes Area. More details to follow.

I'll supply the sound and house band.

Cool stuff. Regarding the livestream: If someone is not into playing live in front of the camera we will cut away to interviews or something - in other words don't let it keep you from attending. We'll work it out. If I post a recoded vid of the Jam on YouTube I'll make sure every player is cool with it and I'll edit it down to a "Greatest Hits" vid with interviews and general goings-on as well.
