Re: Another concert added.
 

I guess I could get persuaded...since I plan to visit you guys in sunny California anyway...:biggrin:

Re: Another concert added.
 

Okay Claudia,

Let me know if there is anything I can do to help with your California visit. The weather should be wonderful at that time of year. :)

Re: Another concert added.
 

If that's as close as he gets to Sacramento I'll be there!

Re: Another concert added.
 

Doug,

It will probably take you 3 to 3 1/2 hours to drive there. It will take us about 4. Any chance you two can come to the other shows down here? :) How about Humfries? :) :)

Re: Another concert added.
 

I have tix for the Agoura Hills concert already and are 'aiming' for San Diego as well. Kerstin and I are planning to visit the Taylor factory down there - better clutching our wallet real tight...It'll be very tempting.

Re: Another concert added.
 

Claudia & Kerstin, visiting the Taylor Guitar factory and attending some Gordon Lightfoot concerts, "heaven is a place on earth." :)

Re: Another concert added.
 

Yeah', I tell ya...can it get any better??? It's not that I'm not already owning a beauty made in California but would a second one hurt....? Trying to find an excuse...

Re: Another concert added.
 

I of course have thought about it but with my new job I doubt I could take the time off to do it, but you never know

Re: Another concert added.
 

lucky Californian Corfidians :)

Re: Another concert added.
 

A second one wouldn't hurt... ;) I understand Kerstin has a good Taylor, she told me about it in the past.

Trying to find an excuse... If you got the mun have fun. :eek: :rolleyes: :headbang: :)

No mun no fun ! :redface:

Re: Another concert added.
 

Hi Claudia,

if you're in CA already you should go to all the concerts over here. Would be a waste otherwise ;)
I'm looking forward to the Taylor factory,too. Will be special to see the place where my guitar was born. I'm secretly hoping they don't sell any over there. It would be too difficult to leave without one otherwise. But I do think Jesse once said that you can never have too many guitars.....so there!

Okay Kerstin and Podunklander,

Enough trying to offer what you can do in eachother's backyard. I expect all my sisters to be front and center for all four concerts in CA. If they add more, we will be there too. By the way Sister Pam, that includes you too. :) :) :)

Re: Another concert added.

Re: Another concert added.

Re: Another concert added.
 

Thank you Patti,

We will be in good shape as long as our frequent flier miles hold out. :)

Re: Another concert added.
 

K, DSR & we all gotta stay in shape and sometime get over to New Hartford, CT. I was checking out sounds of guitars with my son Levi one day and I loved the sound of an Ovation guitar. Levi told me that it was made of carbon fiber. He told me that carbon fiber was used to make the A380 and the stealth bomber. I asked him what the A380 was and he said it's a passenger jet that's bigger than the 747. He also tells me that some company called Scale Composites uses carbon fiber to make most of their airplanes and that their CEO's name is Burt Rutan. Also carbon fiber is used for wind turbines and professional racing kayaks and paddles, and McLaren Supercars.

Re: Another concert added.
 

Hi Patti,

I saw an upright bass made out of carbon fiber on TV once and the guy who tried it said it sounds really good. I'll have to check out that Ovation on the internet. :)

Re: Another concert added.
 

Just a quick note here, as long as you're talking about Ovation guitars. Only the back is made of the carbon fiber not the whole guitar. Glen Campbell made them quite popular.

Some kewl history here:

Re: Another concert added.
 

Doug, you beat me to it. Glen Campbell has been playing Ovation Guitars since well seems forever. And he sure can pick it good.. :)

I myself like the way they sound, but am not crazy about there look. Notice the 22 sound holes. :)

Re: Another concert added.
 

23 might be better. :) (kiddin')
The sound is important.

Re: Another concert added.
 

There was one occasion where GL played an ovation guitar:

Re: Another concert added.
 

I have a Harmony "S". I got it for Christmas 2006. There was a tag on it that said Dreadnought. I just loved the sound of it when I first heard it. When I checked out the sound of several other guitars in the store, I felt even more happy about the sound of mine. I don't know what kind of an Ovation I tried out, but it sure sounded nice. My guitar has to put up with me practicing. It will be nice to hear it sing someday. I'm very much a beginner and just learning to practice every day. I have small hands with long fingers, and I really don't know yet what guitar neck is supposed to be best for me. I really like the guitar that I have so my hands will just have to get used to it.

Re: Another concert added.
 

That Ovation I took a little strum on was black and had a strong look to it and made me think of heavy metal.

Re: Another concert added.
 

Hi Patti,

Glad to see you are here. Any chance you will make it to a concert this year?

DSR

Re: Another concert added.
 

Well, if Gord would take me (yeah, right). I would love to go to all of them, but no money and even if I could afford it, it sure sounds like a hard time for people to get good seats. Probably just not meant to be for me. It's alright.

Re: Another concert added.
 

Back to the original thread. :)

Re: Another concert added.
 

Sorry DSR for posting those guitar pics on your thread for new concerts added. :( :redface:

Re: Another concert added.
 

Sorry Jesse Joe I wasn't trying to make you feel bad. The education about the carbon fiber guitars was good. Not everyone has heard of this type of guitar. It's okay you can stop crying now. I am not mad at you. LOL :) Some days I am so silly.

Let's get you to a concert. :biggrin:

DSR

Re: Another concert added.
 

Yahoooo, Joliet is definitely something I can do! It's a 500 mile drive, but I can also visit all of my friends and family while back "home" in the Chicago area. :)

Re: Another concert added.
 

Yea Moosedog,

That puts a smile on my face. I am sharing your happiness with you. :) :clap: :clap: :)

DSR

Re: Another concert added.
 

Thanks DSR - and thanks for posting about that concert. :) I check the schedule frequently, but they snuck that one past me. Hopefully another one or two will be added in that general vicinity, so I can make the most of my road trip. :)

Vickie

Re: Another concert added.
 

I hope so too Vickie. If I find anything you know I will post it. :)

DSR

Re: Another concert added.
 

{lol} No DSR you didn't make me feel bad. Gosh I didn't even cried... :biggrin: I think a lot of us somedays are silly, myself for sure. Where's that Kentucky Kerstin, did she move yet. See Im on another topic again... :eek:

Any new concerts added lately ? :) :redface: :whistle: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Re: Another concert added.
