    Who all is going to Music Camp this week? I am super pumped. I am really looking forward to playing and learning some jazz/swing mando. I also am hoping that Ted brings his new Clark.

    Gerald Jones, one of the mando instructors, is a hoot. I jammed with him some at the recent Camp Bluegrass. His humourous patois is a perfect example of how to lighten the mood at a performance. He plays a "Thunder from Downunder" Gilchrist.

    Enjoyed meeting you both, Adam & Kevin! Hanging with "The" Gerald Jones was a hoot. Here he is having his way with my Clark JM:

    The series was a total success; very likely to happen again next year. I posted some terrific jazz performance vids in this thread:
