Glassweb, I look forward to meeting you. I appreciate the info you gave me about Bellingham. I'll be sporting a lefty Collings D1A varnish in an Accord case & hanging out a bunch by GregBoyd's booth. Let's make sure to pick a few

Don't worry Andrew, all of us builders will make sure you get a chance to see some stuff. Also, we don't have to stay open as long as we used to so you get abetter chance to get out in the evenings.
See you all there!

Okay, it does not appear there's much interest in any sort of formal get together this year. I'm sure we'll probably all cross paths at one time or another during the festival. For me the some of the mandolin related highlights are the David Grisman/Kenny Smith Tone Poems workshop on Friday morning at 11;30. There's also an octave mandolin workshop with Darol Angerat 11:15 on the same day. More than a few mandolin workshops with Ronnie McCoury and Frank Solivann, Sarah Jarosz and Dominic Leslie - wow! I just found out that Northfield mandolins will have booth and I'm very interested in seeing some of their wares. There's the usual assortment of vendors and builders and I'm hoping to locate some sort of pickup or microphone to amplify an acoustic mandolin. Maybe even buy some strings and picks too!
...then there's the jamming (and cocktails).
See you 'round the campfire!

I will be there Friday, I just have to go to the Tone Poems workshop.
I will be lugging one of my Selmer style mandos around in case anyone wants to try it.
See you there!

I'll be playing sets Thurs and Fri nights with Jack Dwyer (www.jackandtim.com) and teaching two workshops on Saturday - "Gyspy Jazz/Swing Chords for Mandolin" and "The Art of the Mandolin Duo". Other than that I'm just hanging the whole weekend and would love to geek out on mandolins, meet my people, sample single malts, etc... - I know some of you already - so please let me know if you see me walking by when any mando get-togethers are getting together! Thanks, see you soon - Tim
Hey Tim,

Been too busy to check in and see what plan was developing, but I'm changing strings on one of my varnish chill'un in prep of flying into the great wet North for all the festivities. I do have a jamming king room at the Hyatt so my place is open for mando-geeking, and have my group's guitar player in tow (who's quite proficient his own self) to provide counter point to our treble trip outs! No booth this year as this trip is supposed to re-charge the juices, so really just looking to jam, listen and socialize with one and all. Looking forward to seeing old friends and making new acquaintances; see ya'll tomorrow!
