Guitarist Informal Get Together at the Rally

Post by crs7string » Mon Oct 10, 2011 2:27 pm

Last year we had a brief get together of the guitar playing composers attending the Rally.

It was brief but effective. And probably worth repeating again this year.

Anybody in???

I'm in...

...even though I'm a keyboard player, I play most all of the guitar stuff on my tracks... I'd love to attend and learn some stuff from you guys - (and maybe be able offer a unique perspective on a few things)

when and where and I'm there

Well, I don't play guitar at all, but I would still like to come.

Cheers -

I'm definitely interested! This will be my first time flying with a guitar, so I hope that goes smoothly.

So far there is more interest from the keyboard players than the guitar players. :?:

Maybe we should change this to "an informal gathering of keyboard players" to entice the guitar players amongst us. :D

I am a guitarist first off.

I am interested but am pretty sure not bringing an axe (if that matters).

Andy,

No ax required. Last year people came ready to share tips on using guitar modeling, amps they were using, someone may have shared some info on ukes. etc.

It was very informal and we met for about 30 minutes one afternoon in a corner of the lounge.

i think guitarists as composers have some additional skillsets they have to acquire and learning from each other just seems to make sense.
