Dobieboy (AGF screen name) and I met one day at Guitar Center at Springfield NJ (Route 22) and we had a little talk about guitar/Taylor stuff. We parted without exchanging phone numbers or e-mail addresses or anything. He knew I was an AGF user but didn’t know my screen name, so he created a thread so he could locate me. I saw the thread and we’ve been in contact since.
We learned each other’s interest in attending one of the AGF gatherings/get-together but when we looked at the past threads, we were wondering why some of them didn’t really materialize.
So we came up with this idea of having a get together with interested folks that live in the NJ (Tri-State vicinity), but we were thinking of creating more than just a get-together/Jam session/networking/socializing kinda’ event, but instead we were thinking of a more “productive” sort of gathering which we can tentatively call “Group learning session/Practice/Clinic.
The idea simply is based on the group coming up with a concrete plan of say, lining up songs/pieces the individual members want to learn/practice but on a group setting, where group members can teach or coach each other, and work on and hammer out selected songs/pieces together. At the outset, it may seem like a lot of things have to be considered or ironed out but the group can get a ‘brain storming” session at first where the individuals can contribute their own inputs and hopefully be able to create a workable plan going. Any interested parties?
