California AGF Get Together 2005

[koaguitarman]

Attention All California AGF'ers!
Koaguitarman & Koa Lady would like to host the next edition of "Southern California AGF Get Together" in January 2005. I am looking for the best date for all to attend. Here are the proposed Saturday dates:
1/8/05
1/15/05
1/29/05
Is there any interest in this event?
It will be held @ our house or @ the company where I work. At work there is a full kitchen with adjoining conference room (for eating), large lobby area (one pickin' area), and my office (another pickin' area). Lots more room all around.......
Let's make this a big event!

This sounds great, I would love to take part in this event.

Hey Russ,
Thanks for putting this together. I like the first 2 dates best.

[gdgross]

Russ, I sent ya an email, but I'll reply here too jsut to give this thread a bump.

The 15th is best for me, but I can show up for some time any of those days.

Lookin' forward to it!

I MIGHT be able to come down from NoCal. I think the 15th and the 29th are the best for me.

If I do come, I have a nice Yamaha PA system that would be perfect if you want to have an open mic type event for all of the attendees.

The first two dates are better for me. I think I have something coming up on the 29th.

The first two dates are best for me...I'll probably be there on the 8th (available in the evening), and might be able to be there on the 15th (in the area for a contract activity).....sounds like it'll be a real good time....thanks, Russ.

Ya Know that Shoko and I are "in" .....
She plans to bring " The Chair " for a nice time of relaxation.
I'm looking forward to it.

Russ, I know in my mail I said any weekend but I was just reminded that the family is having a baby shower for my neice on the 15th so that weekend is a little restricted on my participation.

I'm looking forward gathering again. It is such a good time.
Oh Yea, when will the goodall be finished?

Only the 8th works for me- I sent you an email - thanks!

[Tahitijack]

Russ & Lady K,

A perfect way to start the year!!!

First and last dates are good for Stacy and I. I'll be on a short deployment in between.

Regards,
Killer

[Rick Shepherd]

Ya, good question, where?

Hi Russ...

Thanks for putting this together! And thanks for skipping the NAMM show weekend :D ... I will be very busy!

Any of those dates would probably work for me... if you need help with anything let me know.

[DrewM]

Russ...thanks for offering. I sent you e-mail, but the first date is best for me.

[kmin]

Russ!

So maybe I'll finally get to sample a small bit of your collection! :D Sorry for never getting back to you... once school started it just swallowed me up.

The last two dates will work for me - I'll be out of the country on the 8th. Looking forward to it!! :D

[koaguitarman]

Hey gang,
These are the winners so far, Saturday dates:
1/8/05
1/15/05
It will more than likely be on 1/8/05.

It will be held @ our house, off the 5 Frwy. in Downey.
Or @ the company where I work, off the 710 Frwy. in Bell Gardens.

Let's make this a big event!

Russ & Twyla

[gdgross]

Russ, I'm amending my statement: I think the 8th will work best. I'm planning to be out of town on the 15th.

[iq_below_2]

WooHoo! I like the 8th! :)

[Ian Anderson]

If you guys out in CA would have a shindig on the weekend before NAMM (like the 15th) I would just have to come out for both!

[Taylorgyrl]

I would like to come but I am just a beginner (sort of) with a few lowly Taylors (214, 314ce). I don't know that many songs but I'm fun and can strum along with a decent rhythm! :)

Taylorgyrl,
This is not about your ability to play or sing. This is about meeting other nice people face to face that you have been "talking" to here. I've been to a few of these and they are about guitars and playing, but more about spending time with some neat people. There are some very good players, and some not so good. Most of us are somewhere in between. I hope you come.

[cpmusic]

What Steve said. It's all about the fun and not about the talent.

TgTaylorgyrl,
You are more than welcome to attend the "AGF Get Together 2005". I know you will enjoy the company of everyone attending. It should be a whole lot of fun and be sure to bring your appetite, we are having some sort of good food. Hope you can make it!

It sounds great! Is it going to be potluck?
TgYes it will be great! It will be a potluck of sorts, some people bring food and some people just eat..... http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/7/7_4_12.gif (http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb001_ZNxdm825YYUS)
The menu will be discussed soon.....
Russ

[Taylorgyrl]

Excellent! I would love to join in the music and munchies :D

Hey Russ, goy your invite, thanks so much! I'll be out of the country doing that time, sorry! Remember to take lots of pictures and share! Have a great Christmas season!!!!

Kevin W. ;)

[anothersmith]

I hope I'll be able to come. We have a tentative family shindig (and I'm using the term "shindig" veeeerrrrry liberally) on the 8th, but if the plans change, as they often do, I'll be there.

[kanikapila]

Hi Russ,
