Registered my wife and I.

 

Thanks, Steve!

Everyone is welcome! You needn't be a musician or singer to come enjoy the music. We need to get an accurate head-count, though, so please don't be shy folks, about registering.

You may list your name and your mate's/SO's together in the First and Last, in the musical instrument box, or register them separately.

Thanks!

 

WOOHOO! Got my instruments in the mail today! WOOHOO!

 

I'd love to have some more guitarists register for the jam! Anyone play congas? What instruments are people considering bringing along, but haven't registered yet, because they aren't sure? Don't be shy! Post what musical instruments you want to play at the jam! Post pix even!

 

Here is what I am bringing....

for me:


to share:




believe it or not, Amazon.com has GREAT and VERY cheap musical instruments!

 

If I have enough to drink. I can "think" I can play any instrument. That's probably not what you're looking for.

 

I'm going to have a stock swaybar available - could you play that? I'll sell it to you for $2.

 

One of the instruments I'm bringing is a Charango. It's a 10-stringed small instrument that is like a combination ukelele/lute/armadillo!


When the Spanish conquistadors went to South America, they brought with them the vihuela (an ancestor of the guitar). Originally, the South Americans in the treeless mountain regions could not spare the wood to make the soundbox and hit upon the bright idea of using Armadillos instead.

The sound of the charango is heard throughout the Andes -- for one thing, it is easier to carry around than a guitar. (How MINI of it!) Nowadays it tends to be made of wood. The whole bulbous soundbox (or resonator) is impressively carved from a single piece. It has 5 sets of paired strings.

 

I'm also going to have a stock one! We can clink them together! OR! We can whale on the cowbells with 'em!

 

what if you can't play any instruments and have a voice like a smashed cat, but can whistle along with most tunes?

 

sounds like me, but i can't whistle either

 

"A voice like a smashed cat"... don't know what that sounds like, but I think I like it!

 

i would imagine a smashed kat would sound like "Bon Scott or Brian Johnson" from AC/DC
i think, no..............i know i would like it

 

Sit, boy......good little CooperBeagle. Now, catch your treat as I throw it down into the abyss! Meowwwwwwwrrrrrrrrhahahahahaha!

I can vouch for Katie's whistling skills...she's good!

 

Maybe wind chimes for your cabin?

 

nah you wouldn't....a smashed cat is loud, screechy, and prolly way off key.

 

We can rustle up some washers and gaskets to add texture and additional sound tones!

 

I'm thinking comb kazoo. I can play one with either cellophane or tissue. Given enough liquid stimulation. If I'm up that late.

 

8:30 PM is late? You and welshmenwillnotyield can duet on the comb kazoos!

 

I'll share... Anyone else bringing something to share?

 

Um, yes, sweetie....I don't think I can play the instruments I've mentioned all at once.....or can I? I guess I could try to be a one-gal band NAWWWWWW...just kidding!

 

I plan to share my guitar... Epiphone Casino, hollow bodied electric... but I am hoping others will allow space to bring a guitar.

 

Are we actually going to have amps etc.? I do have a cordless amp with rechargeable batteries that I can bring, assuming that I get motivated and get it repaired soon.

Mics? (not that you'll get me near one )

I'm bringing an acoustic/electric Ovation guitar, so I'm set either way.

 

yes,
a bottle of Vodka

 

WTG Kool, I knew some one would pull through.
