I feel shitty for having to leave because I missed it!
I came back to join the two poor souls watching it (Jimi & Captain). Saw the last hour and a bit. Great stuff and very well organised by Anthony.

If I were to be ungracious, which I guess I am about to be, we hired an entire separate, really nice room just for acoustic players and quiet space. I don't think a single person went in there except when I had to get a chair.
Objection :o - I took BG's resonator to that room and played it for a while. Oh, and I put the chair back in.

Glad to hear you had a great time!

That's what I call, an empty guitar. They make noise without amplification! Can you believe it? Still, you can barely hear them if you aren't right close to them though.

Cheaper than an amp if you only play at bedroom volumes though. And apparently the ladeeez find them a turn on too!
