Sooooo....Clock & His Wolf, your not coming to the 1st Ever Sacramento CBG Get-to-Gether?  We still need someone, like you, who can at least play a little.

"chord sheets"

"show & tell"

"non-alcoholic beverages"

OMG!

The 1st Sacramento Area Cigar Box Guitar Get-to-Gether

A group formed on CigarBoxNation.Com

 

Sunday, August 26, 2012

1 to 4 pm

 

At

The Strum Shop

408 Roseville Square
Roseville, CA 95678

thestrumshop.com

Directions:  I-80 east of Sacramento (towards Reno);  Take the Douglas Blvd WEST exit;  Thru the light at Harding Blvd;  past the gas station on the right and turn Right into the shopping center;  The Strum Shop is about ½ way down on the left side, just past the Sunflower Market.

 

The Strum Shop has a small stage with mics & amps for players (Please bring a few copies of your chord sheets for others to play along).  Bring items for show & tell on building CBGs & CBUs, tricks of the trade, & tuning & playing.  There will be a nice selection of cigar boxes for sale (for a $5 donation to UkesforSchools.com).  Bring your own snacks & non-alcoholic beverages.

 

This get-to-gether is free & open to anyone with an interest in CBGs.  Please do not call the Strum Shop for information or directions.

 

Contact is Will King right here on CBN.  Please sign up to be my friend to exchange emails on your ideas and setting up an agenda.

I am only just finishing my first ever build but if the glue has dried in time I would love to get together with some fellow players

Ellwood, looks like 10 or 12 have responded, but maybe less will come....Will

Flash mob! 200 CBG players showing up in Old Town SAC would make the nightly news...

Comment by Will King on August 1, 2012 at 5:14am

Help!  We have a lot of interest in a Sacramento get-to-gether, but I can't find a FREE  place.  If any of you know a place, please work on it and get back to me.  Thanks,  Will

Hi Ellwood,  I looked at your pics before replying, Nice work.  If the wind is blowing right, Citrus Heights is only a spit away fro S,Sac where I live.  I have another reply from the other CA group, so 3 is enough for me to plan a party and I will start looking for a place and time.  Most likely a Saturday afternoon.  Will
