My room is too full of gear to have people come to me though :> I'm getting a Subaru Impreza Outback. The SKB mini rig fits snugly in the front seat and when you drop the rear seats, they're masses of space. I could probably fit all my gear in the back, and not use the front seat, though I haven't tried. >Remember? I don't drink! Let's make an SF bay area looper get-together >instead! I am so up for this, I almost tried to put together a party myself a while ago, but, pressed for time, I never got it together. Besides, my place is rather small. I wanted to invite the people on the main lists I am subscribed to - Looper's Delight, Taptalk/Stickwire ( http://www.stick.com players), the Korg Trinity mailing list, and perhaps the Emagic Logic Audio users group, and see what happened. Does anyone have a large warehouse with tons of parking, a loading dock and a clean, industrial strength power supply they aren't using? :> bIz PS Mark S. I re-subscribed and can post again, as you have noticed. Now to solve the 'two of every message' problem. ---------- >From: Mark Sottilaro <msottilaro@ppi2pass.com> >To: Jonathan El-Bizri <jonathan@full-moon.com>, "Loopers-Delight@annihilist.com" <Loopers-Delight@annihilist.com> >Subject: Re: bizarre pedals was Re: Regeneration with Boomerang >Date: Tue, Apr 4, 2000, 1:23 PM > > Ha that sounds exactally like me (no stick though) I'm thinking about a >VW Golf... > or maybe just staying home and having people come to me!
