I've volunteered the resources of the Austin Steel Guitar Co-op (basically me) to run this year's RANP room. I'll be working closely with Albert & Debbie Talley to see that the show is as good as it's ever been... planning on bringing back the lights and backdrop, for starters. Here's the link to the TSGA Jamboree page:
http://www.texassteelguitar.org/jam.html
I'll need some help... here are three things I'll be focusing on:
1.) Talent -- I'm starting a list of folks wanting to play. This has to stay fluid, since we may have some very big dogs climb the stairs and toss away the pedals. If you'd like to be considered as an artist, contact me (see below).
2.) Sponsors -- I'm bringing drums and bass from our ASGC stable. These are pros that will be compensated and given hotel rooms. I'm planning on renting high-quality backdrop, lights, and PA equipment... thinking about camera/big screen on the fretboard (like downstairs), things like that. Any money will help, if you'd like to contribute contact me (see below).
3.) Volunteers -- I'll be needing help with setup, logistics, talent, etc... plenty to do. I've already got some folks on the list but if you'd like to participate contact me (below).
I'm also open to ideas, suggestions, etc... I'm thinking about having some more open format things, like jams, etc... we'll be missing Mr. Carol Benoit's room downstairs, so there is an opportunity to fill this need. My plans are to run my sidemen from 10-12 and 1-6... plenty of time for others to have fun in that room. Have ideas? Want to lead a themed jam? Have a lesson to give? Contact me.

| Steve, let me know where you need help. I will bring a NV 400 and could bring another amp if needed? Do you have a mailing address for donations? Thanks for taking this on, you are appreciated. |

Mark, you can PayPal my email, or just hit me when we meet up at the event... and thanks for volunteering! I'll be bringing some backline stuff for when my guys are on break... you want to bring an amp, no problem. I'll be approaching vendors, it was nice to have that Luker amp last year, let's see if we can get a Quilter and/or Little Walter amp in there too... Telonics has been a supporter in the past as well.
