    if you don’t mind some oafish versions of Neil Young and David Bowie songs, with harmonica too if you’re up for some added caterwauling.  :)
    When you put it like that, I probably do mind, since you asked...
    An oafish original would be okay :)
    genuine lol

    All options sound good to me

    I’d be up for this, depending on date. I’ve got a couple of decent acoustics and could play and sing, if you don’t mind some oafish versions of Neil Young and David Bowie songs, with harmonica too if you’re up for some added caterwauling.  :)
    if you want to do the necessary on this link: https://doodle.com/poll/wwxp3i3tvqzhukf5   we can see what dates start to suggest themselves

    Right, if that’s your attitude then it will be my mission to make you suffer my NY and DB Specials!  :)

    Be careful, a banjo or sax player might be reading this thread and show up unannounced.

    Anyone thinking about coming along?

    There were some fantastic acoustic stylings in Bristol yesterday - anyone fancy coming to fondle someone else's frets, bring their fancy acoustic to show off to others or playing with or for a an enthusiastic and supportive yet small audience? :-)

    I'd be up for it. I ran one years ago for UK members of the Acoustic Guitar Forum. It was so successful they've now demolished the pub. Takes me just an hour to get to Swindon and 45 mins to get back :-). Home of the amazing Andy Partridge.

    I know I've not been around for a while, but would anyone mind me dropping by? Hopefully I'll have a new self build by then to bring along with my two previous models, if that's ok (none of them are anything special, btw - there are people on here who've built acoustics that definitely put mine in the shade).
    If you must have sex with a frog, wear a condom. If you want the frog to have fun, rib it.
