Also, I'm looking for one or two guitarists/vocalists in the far NE corner - pop/rock/general good time party music. If you know of anyone in the area, let me know.

I'm not from Iowa but my wife is. Most of her family still lives there: Iowa City, Cedar Falls, Nashua (north of Waterloo) and Cedar Rapids. We make frequent visits so I guess I'm an honorary Iowegen or Iowan or whatever you guys call it.

Huh... only 10.5 Iowa bassists? I guess we'll all have to play a little louder, boys.
