Marty, I was sorely tempted to confiscate that lad's guitar last time, but then again I was in high spirits. I've played enough dives to commiserate with all bands short of those who play "Feelings" or "Your Mama Don't Dance." After that all bets are off the table.
Would love to be there but will be down the shore for the long weekend. If the turnout is small and you change the date, perhaps the next Friday - 30th- would work better.
I have no problem with the 30th instead of the 23rd, if that means more people can make it. I had not realized the Memorial Day Holiday was being celebrated this upcoming weekend. (Memorial Day IS the 30th, after all!) How about you other guys?
