I possibly need players for:

Drums
Keyboard (for some songs)
Guitar (for some songs)
Electric violin (which I will bring though mine kind of sucks so if anyone steps up to t his and has their own violin and pickup for it it'd almost certainly be better)
Trumpet possibly (on one song, anyway)

from people willing to practice ahead of time (though I'm haven't settled on arrangements yet).

I am willing to provide the following musical services to others, in decreasing order of preference:

Keyboard
Electric violin
Backup guitar
Bass (fretted or fretless)
Drums

Well, if I decide to try to put together a live version of King Arthur, I'd be in need of bass, lead guitar, keyboards, and, to keep Blue happy, a real drummer. Backing vocals a plus, and we'll see if we can rope Adjuster into helping out with a live "So Long, Atticus."

I'll be available to do guitar, bass, and backing vocals, and simple keyboard stuff, for others. Planning to be in town two or three days early, available for rehearsals...

Oh yeah I'll do backing vocals too.

I won't be bringing a guitar - so I will be looking to borrow one - electric or acoustic - doesn't really matter.

I will be available to play bass, guitar or backing vox for anyone who needs it.

Haven't made travel arrangements yet - but will probably aim to get to fly to SF, stay a day or 2 then head to SC on the Wed or Thur

So I'm looking reasonably definite of coming - will confirm that 100% when I actually buy my plane tickets.

Yeah, I'll need an acoustic guitar if it's not too much bother

You can count on there being plenty of quality guitars/basses/drums/amps/keyboards/etc. You only need to ask for unusual or specific items. Try it, we've got a lot of great stuff. Also, check in before lugging your prized Les Paul. Lunkhead has two.

Bringing the theremin, per Jack's request in one of the other threads. Can bring assorted hand percussion (maracas, cabasa, agogo bells) should anyone want to get goofy.

I'd like to have a double-neck guitar for my set and I'm willing to pay to rent one for a few days if anyone local knows where I can get my hands on one. I very much don't want to have to find one around here and then fly across the country with it.

On the giving side of things I'm happy to play just about any instrument for whoever needs it; all I ask is a little bit of advance warning so I can learn yr songs.

Probably all I'm bringing is a suitcase full of weird small electronics. And a toothbrush and some clean clothes and such.

I'll be travelling light - so I'd like to borrow your toothbrush and some underware if I can - unless you know somewhere I can rent some.

I guess I can bring my double-neck toothbrush so we can both care simultaneously for our respective dental hygeine. Doesn't help my guitar problem though.

I can play guitar, hand percussion, and sing, if any of you need any of that in your sets. Itâ€™s a little known fact that having a girl in your band automatically makes you 4.135 times more popular.

Tell me about it!

Jack, I'd like to put in a request for the congas (on a stand, are they?), s'il vous plait.

Word.

Final official list of toys being brought by me, available for getting your percussion, &c. on:

Agogo bells
Cabasa
Claves
Guiro
Harmonicas (in a variety of keys, though not a full set) & crystal mic
Maracas
Theremin

Will the 'Screwheads actually be using all this? Nope, but they small, light, and take up little to no space. Share and enjoy!
