Time for another NoVA/MD/DC GTG

I got there late, couldn't stay long (between soundcheck and a gig) and missed some folks but it was fun seeing the folks there again and some for the first time. I played Sean's new Sadowsky on Saturday and it's excellent. Also got my hands on John's Stambaugh 8; great bass, great attention to detail, and there was this one guy who brought a sweet Fodera that "might" be available;)

Thanks, Jong, hope we can do it again soon and I don't have to leave:D
 
I had a great time, and wish I could've stayed longer... Brad, I'm sorry I missed ya, but I'm sure we'll run into each other again at Atomic soon enough. Thanks for hosting (and drumming), Jong!



I only saw one camera, so pictures will be few I think..

That might have been mine... and I didn't think to use it until a few minutes before I had to leave, so I only got a few pix. But I'll post what I have this evening.

BTW, your Sadowsky is more stunning in person than in pix... the top is 11 out of 10! That said, I fully appreciate your old Shaggy avatar now that I've finally met you. :D :D :D
 
Apologies in advance for using myspace to host images. :hiding:

Great bass playing attracts a crowd (bet you won't miss the next GTG):

I had a great time! Good to meet some folks and hear some hot snappin' and poppin'! Next time I'll have to bring my $50 Mosrite, just for some contrast! Oh, and some money, right, Jivemeister? Or should I call ya the King of Western Swing?

Will you have Jive Sound t-shirts next time????
