Open House Concert Details?

[AnthonyD]

Anything that can be shared? Who? 'Til how late?

My aforementioned commitment for Sunday is suddenly found itself in "maybe" status. Wondering how hard I should work for it, and if not, how my plans for the Open house might change...

Here are the confirmed Artists who will be present:

John Petrucci

Should we be versed in "BODHISATTVA"/"Africa" or maybe "Elephant Talk" incase a jam might break out?? or a lucky "raffle" to jam with the cats??? or Blue Suede Shoes sans-barking ofcourse

Blue Suede Shoes sans-barking

What kind of version would that be? The barking really makes it.

Oh my... Torn between an early exit and a late-night romp!

Some of these potential combinations is going to be a blast to see!

i was really hoping Benji would be there so we have some "punk rock" talk. (no, this isnt a sarcastic post)

 

[Derek]

Benji has been invited and is aware of the Open House. We have not heard back from him as of today. Who knows he may in fact show up.

adelucia? do you need to be pinched real hard?, take a urine test?, get smacked in the knee?, have your prostate checked by a man hating woman doctor that can plam a basketball? Did you fall out of your suv and hit your head? Does Flipper have a blow hole? (that one is stolen from luke) ;I dont know maybe you should just skip one of the best limited audience collection of guitarists in the last 10 years?

{{{momentarily unsure of appropriate response}}}

BP - I did say I was torn, didn't I!?

I am humbled by your personal request... Looking forward to a front-row seat!

 

[NorM]

I'm just so cool with all of this.
A blessing from basspastor (saints be praised)

When's Mustang Sally??????????????????????????????????

 

[Big Poppa]

encore, baby!

 

[bovinehost]

Mmm, Mustang Sally....I've only played that one eight zillion times. Maybe you can catch me and Jon out back in the alley playing that.

 

[word]

When's Mustang Sally??????????????????????????????????

right next to proud mary.

 

[AnthonyD]

Mmm, Mustang Sally....I've only played that one eight zillion times...

Tried it recently with a twist... Start it out ala The Rascals, real slow and soulful, go a verse or two... Dead stop... Re-start ala The Commitments with a chest-crushing heavy thumb.

Very cool!

 

[tkarter]

I am not going to make it and am truly sad about that. I have never played Mustang Sally. Anyone care to teach me?

The only song I have played a million times is Sweet Home Alabama.

The rest I am still working on.


The I know I have a ways to go yet

i am always amazed at the # of bass cats that jump up to sit in on " i can't get no satisfaction " ....& play the guitar line instead of the bass line.....
