MCChris Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 I've been up there with you guys the past couple of years (1st time played Stranglehold 2 years ago) and would love to play more/better!!! Better? You nailed it!
kizanski Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 This week, I'm whatever it is when you're beyond bummed!Like when you find out REE-shard isn't coming after all?
hectorp Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 This week, I'm whatever it is when you're beyond bummed!Like when you find out REE-shard isn't coming after all?So sad...now it's back to being a sausage fest. ...and someday, I hope to participate in an HFC group viewing of Marked for Death
cmatthes Posted October 3, 2012 Author Posted October 3, 2012 This week, I'm whatever it is when you're beyond bummed!Like when you find out REE-shard isn't coming after all?He's not?But Vonnie is still flying out, right?

hectorp Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 For those of you who saw Scott's announcement of the cancellation of the Off Broadway gigs in Rockford and Milwaulkee and feared the worst....Off Broadway (though missing John Ivan) will still be playing at the Saturday Jam! Praise the Lord!
veatch Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 Counting down to Sat... T minus 70 hours and counting...
tomteriffic Posted October 12, 2012 Posted October 12, 2012 Y'all suck. You know that, right? Jeez I wish I could be there.
Steve Haynie Posted October 12, 2012 Posted October 12, 2012 Next year I need to send a cardboard cut out of myself to be set up at the meeting. It is the only way I will get there.
kizanski Posted October 12, 2012 Posted October 12, 2012 No John Ivan!?Is Badger Dave still gonna come?Waiting for my flight...
svl Posted October 12, 2012 Posted October 12, 2012 No John Ivan!? Is Badger Dave still gonna come? Waiting for my flight... Badger Dave IS John Ivan... Hamer Dave is John Ivan as well... ...at least on Saturday. Travel safe!

elduave Posted October 12, 2012 Posted October 12, 2012 Have fun, someone go to Portillos and pour a sip of beer on the floor for me.
veatch Posted October 12, 2012 Posted October 12, 2012 Can't head out until tomorrow am. T minus 15 hours and counting...
Hamer Dave Posted October 13, 2012 Posted October 13, 2012 No John Ivan!?Is Badger Dave still gonna come?Waiting for my flight...Yes. I met Badger Dave Friday afternoon. He's already here.
Jorge Posted October 14, 2012 Posted October 14, 2012 My ears are still ringing after the jam. What an amazing day. I have to thank once again again Paul Hamer and Chris Herman for all the work, organization and hospitality. It was great to meet so many great and long standing HFCers. I would prefer not naming anybody as I might forget some, but if I met you at all, you totally rock. Just confirming again what you feel when participating on the board: even if you were not the great musicians that you are, you would still be the most amazing bunch of characters ever.-Jorge.

That doesn't happen without the HFC. "Bunch of characters" indeed!
