Hi all, working on my very first build. Not a musician, oddly enough- just a muultimedia freak. Building a geetar for my hunny, but loving the process of screwing up and finding creative fixes, etc.
Glad there's a PNW community- this seems like a hobby that fits our national neighborhood. American primitive.

Hey Steve. I'll be doing drums for an Irish set on Sunday down in Eugene. And you?

Sounds like fun. I'll see if I can sneak north up the interstate without boss lady findin' out. Did a 4-year internment at Lewinski and Clark ... err... Lewis and Marx ... ah, that other college up the hill.

Go to buddyguy.net, NOT buddyguy.com. Buddyguy.com is "Buddy Guy's Legends," a music venue with a menu in Chicago. Buddy Guy is (was?) touring with B. B. King. Now THAT'S a double feature not to be missed.

Buddy Guy is playing the Roseland Theater in Portland on April 23. check out ticketswest to get tickets or buddyguy.com.
