gkbass13 · #1 07-14-2006, 12:20 AM

hello all...im located in the albany/saratoga springs area...a little far to make it to any of the NYC g2g's...anyone else from upstate want to possibly organize one of our own? western mass/new hampshire/vermonters also welcome....hell montana residents are welcome if you feel like it! leave some ideas....

Its a possibility. Unfortunatley there arent nearly as many people in that area as the NYC area.

gkbass13 · #3 07-14-2006, 01:37 AM

of course not, if we could get a couple more...could be a possibility, and a good time. mike dimin is form this area...maybe he would do a mini clinic or something...

I would certainly be up for it. Western Mass might be a good option too. Close to VT, NH, Boston, CT, RI and NY! My schedule tightens up between mid-Aug until the beginning of Oct. though.

If it's somewhat close, I'll be there!

I don't understand why people post things in the wrong forum.

i dont understand why it bothers you so much to that you click the thread and post a message. pm me if you have a problem.

This goes in off topic, hope it works out guys.

I'm in the same town as Burning Skies and I know there are a few others not too far. Trouble is that bass players work, and it's nearly impossible to do it on a fri of sat night.

I vote we pick a Sunday afternoon to disturb the neighbors somewhere.

im liking how this is developing. i could do a syracuse deal...my girlfriend is from oswego...not too far of a trip...i was hoping to incorporate any players just north of the city or from western new england though...maybe i will have to organize two seprate oens and enjoy both:-P. i coudl always host one in albany...i have a 2 floor hosue only being used by myself and one otehr room mate currently(until school starts again in september) lets do this!

I get back there maybe once a year on average to visit family and friends (I grew up in Colonie). I hope some day one of your GTGs coincides with my schedule.

gkbass13 · #12 07-14-2006, 07:09 PM

well....what exactly si this schedule you speak of? haha

Bob Lee (QSC) · #13 07-14-2006, 07:16 PM

I don't have a trip scheduled right now. Maybe in the fall.

SBassman · #14 07-14-2006, 07:45 PM

Depending on where this lands, I'm interested.

[Don't wait till the fall. Do it now.

If there ends up being some interest, I'll look into booking the community center...but we'd need a lot more interest.

Otherwise, I'd still be willing to do a drive to Albany/Saratoga/W.Mass...

lesfleanut · #16 07-14-2006, 09:40 PM

I'm up for this... Perhaps skies, bigfatbass, and I could carpool. We could just get selfish and host it here in the 'cuse somewhere, it is smack in the middle of the freakin' state!

edit: PS claypool in NYC tomorrow, pretty stoked for that!

SBassman · #17 07-14-2006, 09:51 PM

I'd like to nominate the Hudson Valley as the place.

If someone in the Woodstock area can swing something with this guy http://www.mtdbass.com/

Then I'd be happy to come downstate.

I'd also like to make an NYC GTG, but they've all been bad weekends for me. Hell, I'd even make the trip to Bowlus' house just for the experience.
