Hiya Bill
Looks like I can get a return flight for around £250.00 sterling so providing my missus doesn't start a lavish life style I should be able to attend....
I'll post you the deposit...is $10 about £5.375 sterling by your reckoning?

HI Roger,
That is great that you will make it over for the synthzone jam. We shall look forward to seeing you here.
The exchange rate settled on Friday at 1.8560 according to Barrons Tables so your calculations are pretty close. Close enough for Jazz as we say.
I will be watching the mail for your deposit.
Thanks for joining us,
You should try to fly into San Jose when you get to New York as San Francisco is 50 miles north of here, through cross town traffic all the way.
Best to you and yours,
Bebop

This morning I received a confirming email from Cliff Anderson in the San Jose area that he is coming and has already mailed his check.
This is great Cliff, you are really welcome.
Cliff has a new keyboard to show us too
Get your checks in the mail. The time slots are filling up

Well, people it begins to look like I will be the only person at this SynthZone Jam that owns a Technics Keyboard. I will just leave it at home and not tell anyone I have it.
Roger Mepstead is coming all the way from the UK. He can play my KN7000 so he won't have to bring his.
I will just take the Yamaha PSR9000, along with the Motion Sound KP200s Stereo Sound System. People will be interested in this new Stereo Keyboard Amp.
I hadn't realized that I was the only one in Northern California that bought Technics Keyboards but with the local dealers asking 5950.00 it is not a wonder to me they didn't sell any.
OH WELL

Sorry Bill,

There's just no way I can get there. I don't have the vacation time it would take and I have cruise planned for May 1st which will use up what I have. Beside I couldn't bring the piano along.

I did wonder what ever happened to the event that was being discussed in Florida though. It just kind of died.

I hope it turns out well.

this will now be the General Arrangers Forum Jam.
no members of the Technics Forum have been confirmed, and very few have voiced interest. I don't get it but I don't question it either.
Thanks to all

Bebop,

I am sure there are many of us that would like to attend your Jam in Cal but there are restictions for myself and I am sure others. I think the main restriction is cost. If I were retired with the big bucks I would be there.

I would love to meet and shake the hand of the many members of this great forum.

I think the idea of localized members Jam would attract a greater attendance, followed by a national Big Jam for those that could attend.

California is started....Florida is in embro.

HI ROGER
Got your check today and delighted you are coming all the way from the UK to San Jose to the SynthZone Jam.
We are going to have a good cross section of instruments and players here and it should be a big success.
We now have enough people confirmed to go forward with this project. I hope there might be some Technics people there besides just you and me. Maybe over time others will decide to join us. I still have room for a few more players
Just get your check for $10.00 in the mail to me to confirm your spot
