Have you seen the tentative schedule? scroll down on the sign-up page for ithttp://www.taxi.com/rally/signup2008.html

Thanks for posting that link Vikki - I didn't realize all of those classes were added yet.

I do understand that there are going to be a lot things going on at the Rally. I was wondering what kind of genre of mentors will be there, such as I am a urban gospel arist if thats what you want to call it but it is music for everyone to enjoyed. Have you seen many gospel members that are a part of Taix come to the Rally?God Bless

Thank you for all the information as I am new member attending my my first Rally! I'm a little bummed because my plane doesn't arrive until 6:30 pm... So I guess I am out of luck regarding signing up for a mentor. Marlin

Hi Marlin - I don't think you will be out of luck - I didn't sign up until the first thing on Friday morning at my first rally (2 yrs ago) and when I had my mentor appt last year on Sat., there were still people signing up for spots. The mentors are pros, so even if the exact one you wanted to talk to isn't available, they all should be able to be helpful on some level to anyone. Best thing I found is to tell them what information you would like for them to give you by listening to the cd - in other words, help them be the most help to you.HTH
