[RhythmAgogo] A Miscellany for Your Perusal

[Neil Jones]

Hi folks!

So, Folkfest was pretty great. Thanks to everyone who came out!

How would you feel about getting together for our next rehearsal on Monday,
August 31st, after this short summer break? Or should we wait until Monday,
Sept. 7th? Is Monday still the best overall date for people, going into the
fall? In response to some feedback I've had lately, I think we should spend
some time just jamming, and maybe practice soloing and improvisation in
general, if folks are into that.

On the practice space front, I have just written and sent a letter to the
board of The Stand (the organizing centre attached to Turning the Tide
Bookstore) requesting regular Monday night rentals starting at 8pm.
Hopefully we'll hear from them soon. I'm hopeful a small storage space will
also be possible, but I told them we'd be interested in renting practice
space even if it's not.

On the collaboration front, I'll be meeting tomorrow evening with
Jebunnessa Chapola, who is very enthusiastic about getting together with us
for some sort of exchange. Hopefully she and I can work out a proposal we
can bring back to our respective groups. I'll let you know!

To follow up on our one working group meeting so far, here is what the
Vision and Mission Statement generating session came up with. If you get a
chance, please take a look and offer any feedback you may have. Thanks!

And maybe we can have a fundraising planning meeting soon? (How's that for
a string of gerunds!) Who's interested? And maybe we can get this nonprofit
drive rolling (Corey, Chelsea)?

Anyway, keep on rocking (and rolling and swinging and skanking and waltzing
and grooving) in the free world!

Neil
