Members GreatDane Posted October 19, 2012 Members Share Posted October 19, 2012 so, how many of you have actually met up with other forumites in person? did it include any jamming, or was it just getting together and hanging out? stories, pics, clips, vids. post 'em if you got 'em.

Members mdintx Posted October 19, 2012 Members Share Posted October 19, 2012 I got to hang out with GuitarNoobie (Danny) since we used to live near each other. He was brewing beer with his buddy, also a guitar player. He let me try this amazing IPA, I've been chasing a beer that tasted as good ever since. I've not succeeded. Looking forward to actually jamming with him some time soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cratz2 Posted October 19, 2012 Members Share Posted October 19, 2012 I think I've met maybe 5 or 6 folks... maybe a few more. Jamming half the time or thereabouts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members GreatDane Posted October 19, 2012 Author Members Share Posted October 19, 2012 i haven't seen GuitarNoobie around here in a while. hope he's doing well. he did that freakin' amazing raindrop finish on the Dean and then built a les paul replica from scratch. with skills like that, i can only imagine how good his IPA was.

They have some great stories. i think i was some pics that brentrocks posted at one point recently. did you get a chance to jam at all, or was it more about touring the factory and ogling heritages? if you have pics, please post them.

Members PunkKitty Posted October 19, 2012 Members Share Posted October 19, 2012 For me it was more about touring the factory and checking out other people's gear. I don't have any pics. But you can join the Heritage forum and see pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Doctor Morbius Posted October 19, 2012 Members Share Posted October 19, 2012 I've met Lonnie99, Kyle and Senior Penguin. Cratz2 and I hang out. Lowbrow used to come over and jam about once a month with Cratz2 and I. NotJonahButNoah has been to my house for a jam session before and I've seen him at a few gigs. The problem with jamming is none of us practice the same songs so it's kinda like a free for all, which kinda sucks. So I've met 6 and know 3 of them a little bit.

Members Deadbeat Son Posted October 19, 2012 Members Share Posted October 19, 2012 I've met one, Shovelhead, who doesn't hang out here anymore. I saw a couple of his old bands play, and then I met him again about 7 years later for a CL sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Willyguitar Posted October 19, 2012 Members Share Posted October 19, 2012 I have had a couple of telephone chats and email exchanges with Ratae,I have had lots of non-forum communication/email with mistersully (who lives on the other side of the world and who is a diamond geezer),Exchanged quite a few emails with Les Paul Lover. However, despite once almost organising a CSM gig up in sunny Yorkshire, I have never actually met anyone face to face. ... which is pathetic when you consider how small this island is. Having said that, I hardly find time these days to pick up my own guitar for more than 30 minutes a day, so it would be difficult to fit in.

Members Jkater Posted October 19, 2012 Members Share Posted October 19, 2012 The only forumite that I have spoken on the phone with is DaveAronow. Otherwise I have had email exchange and shared more on a personal level with MrSully, GreatDane, Nukey, JJ and, to a lesser degree, with a few others. Next time I go home to Quebec, I plan on visiting Flogger and have a good jam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members csm Posted October 19, 2012 Members Share Posted October 19, 2012 Here on HCEG, Marc aka MetalheadUK and Sean aka Ratae Coritanorum are now good mates o'mine ... and I also hung out some with Toni aka AncientMariner when he came to an early Crosstown Lightnin' gig. Other than those gents ... regrettably not. I must confess to a small degree of curiosity concerning some of HCPP's odder specimens ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaveAronow Posted October 19, 2012 Members Share Posted October 19, 2012 I've only met a few Axeslinger, MikePete10gibby56 All great people. I've ran a couple of raffles here in the past to help forumites in need, Leopardstar, etc, and during those I've probably talked to fifty or more forumites on the phone. I've talked on the phone withFrets99DcindcBobbyDRoosterb Aka jefferson DouglassJkaterJohnny, LeopardstarGilgatorsAlley trash and I are regular phone buddies, talked with him few times a week for yearsTalked with Will ChenSo many more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members thecornman Posted October 19, 2012 Members Share Posted October 19, 2012 I have contacted a couple people in the past that live near by in hopes of maybe getting together to jam, because I love playing with different people! Nothing has ever panned out though. I am more then a little sure though that many people would rather talk about music then play it and that is their right.
