But the kit won't fit in my carry-on.

you're still better off than the pianist joing us.. hope he has a coupe, and not a cab..

[flash]

lol - if we were really into this (and it would have to be serious), we could bring a very small PA of sorts. i have most of what we need (board, mics, cables, and even a small set of powered speakers). i also have a couple of keyboards, a guitar, and a drum machine

of course, this would be difficult to carry in the cab, as i would like to make room for the wine. tough call

[lbpesq]

A jam would be a blast. I can bring a guitar. I really don't think we need a PA just to sit around and do some acoustic pickin' and strummin'. Flash can save that space to fill up with wine for the ride home. Anyone else in?

lol - no worries. not sure the hotel would dig that much anyway. i wish i had some small percussion instrument though. i sold my congas and gave away my drum set (huge mistake, given the history of the kit) many many moons ago.

i'm up for a jam. can probably fit an acoustic in the trunk with a small roland travel amp...but that means no room for all the scotch.

was also thinking how 'bout a BYOB scotch tasting this year?

[DaveN]

Forget instruments if if will compromise Scotch tasting. We can all just hum a little BYOS sounds good!

Oban 14 or Knockando...

Glenmorangie Nectar D'Or (Sauternes finish)...and a Balvenie 17 with a Madeira finish

fed x your instrutments, where is the ole philosophy of having your cake and eating it too?

[tamathumper]

My drum kit is only slightly smaller than the Starship Enterprise, and shipping it to California would cost more than shipping *me* to California!

[DaveN]

Scotch will have to a surprise when I get there. The booze taxes here are so much higher than in CA that it would be silly to buy ahead of time.

Tama, then just bring your sticks!

yeah, and you can hit "ibpesq" over the head with them if he starts playing anything on that guitar that even remotely sounds like a grateful dead tune ..

I'm not checking luggage, and they won't let me on a plane with drum sticks, guaranteed.

Thanks DS i was thinking that but didn't want to offend by making that comment. Thank god for you!

[tamathumper]

Sing it with me DS,...

"Oops... I... diiddit again,..."

It is rumored that Lbpesq 's 968 hood resonates like a Zildjian if struck hard enough (especially on Dead tunes)

Hey wait, didn't we already cover everything that could possibly be said about bands, singers, etc on the music thread just a little while ago ? :-). :-)

@ tama - I wonder if drum sticks would indeed be banned ?! Anyone has the TSA list handy ? ( although I do recall when looking at the prohibited items list the last time, there was a statement to the effect of. " and/ or any other items which in the opinion of the TSA agent may be deemed prohibited ". sweeping clause.. :-(
