School of Bass Part Deux (Question for "The Dude")

[maddog]

Ok, this in late this afternoon and I need to come out and let it be known that due to a conflict with his touring schedule that Billy Sheehan will not be able to headline SOB in October. I am very sad about this turn of events but also undersand what it takes to make a living in this business and appreciate Billy's decision in this matter. He sends along his regrets as do I.

I am currently in negotiating stages with a few others to fill this slot and will let you all know when I have someone firm.

Bear with me here a minute ok...this was unexpected...thanks!!

Bummer.

Well, as long as there is any semblance of an EBMM gathering, I will still be stoked. That and a class from Mr. Ed Friedland.

Just found that I have some points built on another card. Plenty to get an airline ticket to PHX.

I'm seriously going to look at going to "school" when I get back from Jamaica next week.

Larry I soooo hope you can come, we need to hang!

Hey Steve, I can't figure out that registration file, can I print, fill out and fax it to you?

This is because I have an old computer, runs on computer fluid, remember those?

I couldn't enter any data in the fields... I'm sure I just too stupid to know to do this... FAX Ok?

 

[maddog]

Chuck,

Try cutting and pasting the text of the PDF into a Word document. Then edit and save the Word document and email it to Steve-o. You might even be able to export the Word document as a PDF file.

 

[Steve Dude Barr]

I don't even own a fax any more Chuck...sorry. You can always print it out, fill it in with a crayon and drop it in the mail to me.

 

[Psycho Ward]

Blue or red crayon?

 

[maddog]

Blue or red crayon?

PM sent.

 

[Steve Dude Barr]

Got it Chuck...thanks!

Update:

Not saying who yet but I'm very excited to report that I have reached at least "tentative" agreement for a new headliner...not a household name, never been on a magazine cover to my knowledge but a cat I know very well and a person I have always admired as a player and a person.

Hang on...if this thing firms up, it' s going to be a very special thing...trust me.

Clue: You'll all be walking around with yellow guitar picks stuck on your foreheads and asking for an "extra piece of chicken" before you're done.

 

[hmagman]

My guess... Bobby Vega!!!

 

[Steve Dude Barr]

That would be the one Harry....so, you coming over??? Karen asked if "the cute guy" would be there or not.

 

[Mobay45]

Just signed up for SOBII.

Hotel reservation has been made.

Just need to secure airline tickets.

See you in October!

 

[Steve Dude Barr]

Thanks Larry...as I said on the phone, Bobby Vega has confirmed his participation at SOB while I was on vacation.

See you there!

Ok,

I finally got the SOB merchant account setup so I can now accept credit card transactions over the telephone if that's your method of payment.

You have until June 30th to get in at the early bird registration rates so give me a call on the toll free number at 877-264-8282 and I'll sign you up!!

 

[Steve Dude Barr]

Our newest sponsor of SOB II is Genz Benz who Bobby Vega endorses. They'll be there and are providing us with amps for the teaching rooms as well as Bobby's concert rig!

Thanks to Jeff Genzler and Roger Hart at Kaman!!
