Title: See if it Sticks
Post by: flaxattack on January 24, 2007, 09:54:29 PM

Answered an ad in craigslist months ago, had one email reply and then nothing. out of the blue i get an email to jam from the guy. next thing i know the jam is now a party in riverside,ct. riverside as in big $$$. Am thinking the guitars and drums know each other,they got a keyboard player that i fedex'ed the tabs to 30 dead tunes and me and DIREWOLF holding down the bottom, and do a few vocals
Fun part is i have no clue how many people are coming,how big the house is and find it intriguing
fresh strings, reset the neck and intonation and we are ready to rock. finally after 30 yrs i am getting to play dark star again.
will be back with a set list and photos....

Sounds right up your alley.  Will you squeeze a practice or two in before the gig?  When's the party, I'm going to be on the East Coast in a couple of weeks.  Maybe I could be your roadie.  LOL  Have a blast.    
 
Bill, tgo

Sounds like a great time was had by all.  Great song list.  Did you guys do the full Terrapin Suite?  That's quite impressive for a first time jam!  So, was this a one-off or are you going to play together again?  
 
Bill, tgo

Nice.  Kharma works in funny ways.  I hope it turns into a regular gig for you, because it sounds like a blast!
