I'm planning on being there if the weather's good. I've got a bass gig that evening, so I'll have that with me too.

I put in a special request for 75 & sunny but the weather gods can be deaf at times.
Maybe if if I did more requesting than cursing?
The big event is one week from today.
Looking forward to hearing and seeing everyone.
I will be there by noon so if any of you need to play early come early for sign up.

If the weather man is even close to right Sunday is supposed to be a pretty nice day.
Sunny with temps in the middle 70's.
It will be warm with all of the Jpfer's family anyway but the nice weather is an added plus!

Jerry, Many thanks to you for putting the showcase together, and thanks to Dan for handling the audio...I know he wasn't feeling 100%, but you couldn't tell, everyone sounded really good. It was great to get to see and hear all of my JPF friends again. Mike http://www.myspace.com/stephensworrallhttp://www.myspace.com/mikeworrall

Very cool day at the 'Stop once again. Perfect setting today with the weather as well. Great music, outdoors, on a great day is a very good thing.
Thanks again to Jerry for getting us all together. Thanks to Dan for keeping us 'level.' And thanks to the folks at the Whistle Stop for being 'our' place on a Sunday once a month.
It's great to hear everybody and get their take on things through song.

I missed it last month, so I'm glad I made it today. Definitely lots of fun! Looking forward to next month.
Don't know about the Nashville Chapter. Each Chapter has their own showcases, or not.

Thanks Jerry and Dan. This was fun...
Sorry I had to split so early. What I did get to hear was really good stuff. We have some great talent here in the JPF Tampa Chapter and Bay Area. I'm proud to say that I am a JPF member and that I get the chance to be around such inspiring folks.
Thanks to all

Nathan,
Check within the local Nashville area chapter. Tampa's got a pretty active JPF bunch thanks to coordinators Al Alvarez and Jerry Jakala and of course its active members. We enjoy each other's company and each other's songs.

Thanks to all of the JPF performers for making my job as emcee so easy.
It's really a pleasure to deal with so many fine people that know what they are doing.
A special thanks to Mike Dowell for doing percussion for some of the performers.
Mike & Tom are the dynamic duo for sure!
I am also very impressed with how much many performers have grown in their performances.
Just Plain Folks just plain feels good!

Hey Jerry!
Just wanted to say thank you for welcoming me to my first JPF open mic. My wife Marge and I had a great time and enjoyed all of the performers! Some great talent on display. I hope to make it to the next one!
Thanks again!

I also want to thank Dawn & Pat(whistle stop owners)for letting us use their venue for the Tampa Bay Chapter Of Just Plain Folks showcases.
It was great to get a chance to meet Big Jack,the host of the Wednesday open mic night at the whistle stop.
Another great day to put in my book of memories!

Dang, I wish I'd been there. I love the group and will be double danged if anything comes up to interfere with my attendance at the next one. The March showcase is on my calendar as we speak. See you all there!
One part of my fond memories of past meetings is the impromptu (or nearly so) collaborations between members. So if any of you are feeling adventurous and would like to hear some bass with any of your songs, send me an mp3 to the email address below. Then fasten your seatbelt!!
