I was wondering how much activity there is on Sunday at this event. I'm trying to decide if it's worth a four hour drive each way just for Sunday.

Thanks.

If your just coming over for a day, Saturday would be the day to make the drive. I'm driving near to 7 hours but I'll be coming over on Friday and camping at the field.

Like Bill said, most folks start packing to head home around noon or shortly after.

Hey Bill,
I'm enjoying playing. I miss a day or two now and then but I usualy burn about an hour each day on some easy tabs. I got the intro to Judas Priests "Breaking the law" yesterday. I'm doing OK as long as the song only requires one string at a time, I struggle when two or more strings need to be fingered. Must be making some progress though, I can actualy recognize some of the noise coming out of the amp as a song instead of just sounding like a tortured cat.

I thought about bringing it to the fun fly, but I think it would just sit in the car because I plan to be night flying so I wouldn't be playing it anyway.

THREE WEEKS LEFT.

See ya, Alan
