Do we have confirmed dates yet? It looks like enough people are down for memorial day. We should also set up a shred for Sunday and Monday. I say we do Washington square on Sunday and Central park on Monday. I put central park for monday because everyone will be so tired after the first two days and central park is a more relaxing place. I'm up for suggestions though.

we need to get down to business and stop talking about dancing marshmallows.

I got another offer for a gig in NYC on Thursday May 27th at Bar East (www.BarEast.com)!!

it is a 21+ club unless accompanied by a guardian, unfortunately.

Anyone interested in catching one of my shows while we're all in town for NYFA? I hope so - that would make this tournament a whole lot more doable for me!

We have plenty of escorts that can act as guardians for your 21+ shows, Matt.

And I don't mean that in a dirty way.

This NYFA jam is going to blow the other three out of the water. We have a great venue for all three days, with a great view and everything we could possibly need. Plus on friday night Dave Beyers (boats) is playing a show in Williamsburg at Glasslands with Lost Boy and Twin Sister, it is going to be sick. It will be Twin Sisters album release so it will be packed if you plan on being around friday night I suggest you try and get a ticket before hand. Also Matt Cross is playing on Saturday night which should be sick as well. I am going to contact both venues about under age people getting in, I'm sure they are going to tell me that it is impossible but i will try anyway. If you are under age don't let this discourage you from coming, we will take very good care of you. I'm super pumed and I hope everyone comes.

Drew and everyone else,

I took a gig on THURSDAY the 27TH, instead of SATURDAY the 29th. I hope a bunch of you can make it out the night before the tournament to Bar East at 10 PM! it is a 21+ club unless minors have a guardian (so, looks like some of you are going to be "Uncles" that night ;) ). It's a $10 cover.

NYFA folks, please hook me up and invite some friends along so that I can meet my draw requirements - I'm supposed to have at least 20 people there! I have some other friends in the area who can help with that as well, but, the more the merrier!

Who can make it?

I'm psyched to jam in NYC and spend a weekend shredding! Who's got my crash spot :!: :?: :!:

Matt
BRICK!

I'm pretty sure I can make it to this. Never been to nyc so I'm pretty excited. Is crash space available for a non-smelly footed kicker?

Hey, so it looks like I'll be able to come saturday night into sunday, so if anyone wants to be a super cool pal and has crash space for that one night, that'd be awesome. I'd happily take any kind of floor.
