HCG is a long walk or a short drive from the Inn

After HCG, we'll talk. Some are going to the Rice Festival, others will be jamming at the Inn, others may go into Austin...I'm sure we'll all find something worth doing.

Wish I could be there it sounds great. I am sitting typing this at the Wimberley Inn, what a great place!Shame I couldn't tie my visit to coincide with the gathering , hope you have a great time, I'll be thinking of you.

Several questions:

If we bring beer to the Salt Lick Barbecue, what flavor do people like? I'll have a few extra bottles....

How well do people play, and is there any particular style of music? I was thinking of boning up on my Wagner's Der Ring des Nibelungen and maybe a couple of Broadway show tunes.....

Any idea how many will be showing up? If there's a longest distance travelled award, I'm driving down from Atlantic City!!

By the way, some folks might want to put Poodie's Hilltop on the agenda....


Norman (Which Collings To Bring??) Draper

I'll drink just about any kind of beer if someone else is paying for it. Shiner Bock is a local favorite though and should be experienced by visitors. It ain't the best beer I've ever had but it goes down easy and works really well with the Salt Lick bbq.

Playing abilities vary fairly widely. There'll be some bluegrass pickers in the crowd. Some classic rock players. Some folk and country too. Play whatever you like.

No awards.

No promises on how many will be there either. I never hear from everybody, so there's always some surprises and some no-shows. I expect at least a dozen. Just look for the tables with all the guitar cases. I'll also bring a big cooler, and I bet we can talk Allen into the same, to store whatever beer gets brought, whether it's Shiner Bock or some import.

See you there, will be staying at the Wimberly Inn Fri and Sat. Look forward to seeing everyone!

Hey Joe,
Any chance of another workshop this year? I'm still working on the stuff from last year.

Don't have anything worked up but will be glad to show anybody anything I can. The whole experience is about sharing and having fun.

Please re-read the first message in this post. Schedule has been finalized.

David, Kevin:
Kudos for getting Alejandro Escovedo for the clinic.

See y'all there.
