Vic, I'm sorry to hear that Marilyn is not good, I really hope its not too serious. I'm sure if we all put our heads together something should come out of all that has preceded and some sort of get together will be possible in the not too distant future.
Hope everything gets better for you soon mate.

sorry guys, but a lot of my time is going to be spent looking after Marilyn - she comes first, second and third before I even think about picking up a guitar......
My apologies,
Vic
That is nothing to apologize for, ever!
Keep at it and something will happen. Someone will get it together at some point.
For what it's worth, and it's a long way away, it turns out that my girlfriend (and musical partner) has a writer's conference in Manchester, but that' next year in October of 2007. So if anyone's still reading Guitar Noise at that point in time, I'm hoping to be able to finally meet some of you! Save me a lefty guitar...
Peace
Maybe we can sort something out for then, then.
Vic - Maybe if we could find a licenced venue you could bring Marilyn along, I'm sure she'd be happy with a bottle of Grey Goose and some Tuaca shots :lol:

Pet, you should know by now, never, ever, EVER! mention the words "Grey" and "Goose" in the same sentence......

I spoke to the guys at The Fallout Lounge and they still remember her, oh yes!

OK its been a while..................now 2007. Does anybody have any thoughts on a get together this year or early next year.
If we leave it too long we will run the risk of clashing with the Olympics.
Apart from Christmas my callender is empty for the rest of this year apart from a bit of fishing here and there (that can allways be cancelled).
Vic, you should be well healed by now (broken arm, lacerated hand) Don't put yourself at any more risk than you have to.
Your original idea is still good. Book into hotel Friday night, have a few jars, get to know each other etc. etc.
Come on GNers lets make this happen!!!

Well as you know Rodders, I was hoping to get down to your end for an open mic - unfortunately, I overspent in the old music shop, and I'm skint for the forseeable future!
A get-together would be good - but - and it's a big BUT - it'd have to be next year for me, for financial reasons. Olympics? Well - what's more important than guitar?
I still think the basic idea was sound - find a pub in the midlands with a function room, hire said function room for the Saturday and split the cost between us. Meet up Friday night for a few beers and introductions, play all day Saturday, go home Sunday.....
If anyone's interested, maybe we can work something out? There are a LOT more UK members now than when this idea was originally mooted....
:D :D :D

Depending on how things go I might be able to pop over for a visit. :)
Might be time to start a whole new thread on the topic! :wink:
Peace
I'd love to come, but after Jake's consultation on Thursday the surgeon said he needs to be referred to another hospital that is better equipped to deal with his surgery which means even more waiting *groan* God Bless the NHS!!! The best I could get out of him was that "It may be this year or very early next"..... So I couldn't commit to anything until after that.
Sorry for the absence around here and MSN, but on top of Jake stuff I've been super busy. I miss you guys.

Hey, Pet! Good to see and hear from you. 8)
Not sure I was aware of any of your personal life drama so I hope all is well and good on your side of the pond.

Yeah I'd be up for that! Midlands would be good - not too far from me either! :)
Hopefully not in late April / early May time though . . . exam time at university. :(

If we're going to plan that far ahead why not have it in the summer holidays? Me thinks most of us should be able to keep a week in June empty, right?
Count me in - avoid last week of August and first week of September cos that's holiday time.
Best,
A :-)

Maybe a June meet as has been suggested would be best? Hopefully far enough in advance that most people will be able to make it. :)
