and it was truly refreshing to see your commitment and desire to learn from us 'old farts'
That Penguin couldn't have gone to a more deserving musician.

Well, I must say, that you guys are the sweetest old farts a girl could ever get to know.

I'm going to stick with it and surprise you guys next year. Then you will see how much more I will have learned and how much better I will sound.

This "old fart" loved your beautiful Black Penquin so much that I have put a Black Falcon, with Dynas and a gold Bigsby, on my wish list. I even broke the news to my wife. She took it pretty well and simply said "We don't have room for it right now." That, translated, means I have to sell something first.
You have the most important traits in becoming a fine guitar player and singer-'want to' and 'enthusiasm'. -

Hey --- just 'cause we're all afflicted with GAS doesn't make us old farts!
Just stare at a picture of Keith Richards before looking at us, and see how good we all look?

Well after catching up on all this (hey, it's only been a month and a half since the event took place), the obvious conclusion is that I need to be there next year. Assuming, of course, you can tolerate another old fart in the group.
In an effort to compensate for having to put up with me, I'll bring my wife (to supplement the array of attractive women who seem to show up at these events despite the presence of so many old farts), lots of candy (working for Willy Wonka does have its perks), and as much gear as I can carry. You want PA gear? I got PA gear. Goofy guitars? I got goofy guitars. Guitar synth? I've got a steel drum patch that'll give Parabar a run for his money. And of course, the LunchBox amp. I've got a trailer hitch, and I'm not afraid to use it.

Hey Frank, of course you would be welcomed with open arms, despite being an old fart, particularly if you bring a trailer full of goodies!
Will we see you at NAMM again this year? bonedaddy and I will be down there again cruising the hallways (he looks for hot guitars and hot women, I look for a bathroom).

Well now yer talkin'! Yes, I'm doing some pro bono amp repair for my regular sponsor so that should secure a badge with my name on it, and failing that, I can schmooze one through my other music store client. If the GDPers are again cavorting as a pack in any of the evenings, I'd love to join in on that this time, tool And if Tim needs bandwidth for uploads, I can hook him up (literally).
I know what ya mean, for a facility as big as the Anaheim CC, restroom facilities are pretty sparsely distributed.
