I was noticing the other day that I find myself trolling the TB Rocket Music forum almost as much as the TB Roscoe forum these days!
What's up with that?!?
If it's not a thread on a new piece of gear or bass it's new cool sound clips or tips on how to be a mo' better player.  I also noticed that this Forum is having an adverse affect on my bank account too!   ... actually my wife brought that to my attention!
You throw a pretty cool party Greg!  |

What else can I do that I'm not doing? I'm always on the lookout for some new idea to keep it interesting around here! |

| 1. Start playing like a drunk monkey! (like me  )
2. Start carrying stuff I don't wanna buy!  Quote: |

| It's already too "interesting" 'round here. You got me pestering you 
It's always been fun here in the "Electronic Rocket". I've enjoyed the whole time.
God Bless, Ray

| Um how'd you like to be within driving distance, without the ability to drive Least you can point to the big azz pond in the way. All I got is the fact that I'd either be arrested, or more likely I'd get real personal with a telephone pole, or reveen, or lake, or 72 Buick Deuce and a Quarter.
Nerve racking I tell ya !
God Bless, Ray

God Bless, Ray | I'd be broke from taxi fares... 
FWIW, I can't drive, but, it's entirely because I'm a lazy bum, and never learned.

I know Dylan (an awesome bass player, by the way) who runs the Jefferson Center down in Roanoke. That's where cats like the Flecktones, Derek Trucks, etc. play when they come through. They have a nice side room where they can do clinics and such, I've been to one with Victor there. Anyway, I've asked Dylan to look into booking the Yellowjackets a few times, but I'm not sure that'll ever get anywhere...
To do something here in the 'Burg, we should do an open house/GTG kind of thing. Use like the last two hours of our business day to do a meet/greet/play thing here in the store, then mosey up the street somewhere for some brews and grub. Maybe we can catch a night where Cameron is playing, and we can all go heckle him? Of course, then we'd all go home and cry 'cause we can't play like that!!
This is the last week with all the college kids in town, so something like that is about to become really atttractive. A "celebrate being able to park downtown again" celebration |

I tell ya what would cool is to have Cameron and George do something.
