We are organizing a CBG workshop held one Saturday a month at the 61 roadhouse & kitchen in Webster Groves MO. (St. Louis Area).  This is also the home to the St. Louis CBG festival each year.

Bill Kunz of 61 has been generous in offering us a place to meet, practice, discussed ideas and what ever members decide to do with the time. Gary Herget and myself are contacts for this club and are open to ideas to make this a fun club. As soon as we have commitment from members, we can set up a Saturday each month to meet mornings. We haven't set a day or start time as of yet. We need to know who can commit at least to a start up and discuss as a group when and how we want to run this. Possibilities are great!

For the cbg festival? I can play bass and can help at the festival

So is there going to be a build contest also?

Sorry guys no build contest this year,we only have enough energy to deal with one contest at a time. Maybe we can bring the build contest back next year so you'll have a year to plan and build something spectacular.

AutoRATic Rhythm and Blues Cosmic Glider is ALIVE!! Just wish I could play and sing at the same time. ; )

Added pedals to the lineup.
MXR black label Chorus
Voo Doo Lab Sparkle Drive.

I'm also bringing a spare DC Brick and a hand full of small pedal cables.

Looking forward to seeing everyone there tomorrow!

Sorry, cannot be a festival. I'm in Wichita, waiting for a grandchild to be born.
Had a great time yesterday! Thanks to everyone who helped bring it all together. Just wish we were able to arrive earlier! Justin was very nice to talk with us about our builds, too. Fantastic music and great people!

With a tornado coming though town laterally, I had one of the best times ever. There were mini fest within the fest, jams going on here and there, awesome! Glad you guys made it.

Had a blast! Was great seeing folks there! Uploaded a short video of pics and clips taken.

Hope you left my train rec out

Mr. C, I dig your tunes dude, it was a blast. Thank you for being the first up on stage.

Now we know how the Blue Rat rocks it! Congrats on winning first place in the writers contest. You worked the crowd and they returned their love bro! See you at the club.

Wish we could have been there in time to hear you and the other contestants yesterday BUT, I saw your video -- what a great song!
