Hi Folks,
We are starting to plan our dates for the 2005 Just Plain Folks Roadtrips. Before we add cities, we need to know there are enough local/area members to justify setting up a local showcase and/or meeting. To justify a showcase, we generally require at least 20 interested artists to perform. (Our Roadtrip shows usually average 30-40 performers per show in most cities). To justify a meeting or Roadtrip stop of any kind, we need no less than 10 members interested, which is also the minimum number to have a local chapter. If you'd like us to stop in this area in 2005, please post a note here and let us know. If there's enough interest indicated, we will add a stop. We will be filming a documentary this year on the road and will include a few interviews of local artists as we tour, so if you want us to include your music scene, now is the time to say hi and speak up!

Yep. We should do it again in Brattleboro. It's been too long. I'm sure we can get the required amount of folks to participate just as we did in years past.

Hey Brian,
These are the ones I know from your list but there are lots more SSG's the area who would come. Last time we had tons of people. Many came from areas near by in Massachusetts and New Hampshire. We wouldn't have any problem getting enough folks. We don't really have an "active chapter" by your definition. There aren't 10 active members. There's really nothing for the active members to do yet except dome to the songwriting workshop that I started this month and we only had one meeting so far. But I'm sure for a showcase we would have 20-30 people show up easily and probably much more. -Derrik

"Just Plain Folks is like a plow. A plow is a tool that can be used to help feed thousands of hungry people. But there are two groups of people on the planet. One group of people realizes that for the plow to help feed people, they must actually USE the plow to prepare the field to grow the food to feed the people. The second group of people are the ones who stand and stare at the plow and wait for the food to drop out of it. Of course that group is much smaller because those people all eventually starve to death." –Brian Austin Whitney
