John, the organizer, of the open mic deal, just sent me an invitation to audition original songs at jphopshouse.com/

the end of this month

SMOLEY HOKES!!!!! The invitation was a facebook page, that he got from one of the performers, Randy Beal- I don't have facebook so I can't do it through that... I'm nervous just contemplating it

It's about an hours drive from me on the west side of Houston (I'm north of Houston about 40 miles, as the crow flies)... whew! What to do, what to do.... I am flattered, to say the least and still in shock

Good lord- had anybody said somethin like this would ever happen to me 2 years ago I'd have laughed, out loud, in their face!

I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS....

Garland , As long as you're signed up to Facebook, you should check out the Old Guitar Pickers page. People seem to be confused about whether it's for "people who pick old guitars" or "old people who pick guitars", but both are welcome in this group. I fall into both categories.
