Hoot, no nanny.

Due to all the holiday weekend hoop-la, the word is that there is NO hootenanny this weekend.

We'll get back to yuz when we know when the next one will be (one week? two weeks?).

Next Hoot, Sun, 4/15 2pm

Fool's Hoot

Yes, the next hoot is April Fool's Day! There's been talk about taking advantage of the nice weather (if we have it) and doing the inaugural Spring outdoor hoot. Weather permitting, we'll assemble round 2 at the "mansion" (the gazebo in Riverside Park), if it's crumby out, we'll be at Hogans. Post a comment if directions are needed.

Mixing Board Free to Good Home

For those of you who missed the last hoot, Robin announced that he'd like to get rid of his mixing board. All you have to do is pick it up! What a deal! Here's the details...

"I am giving this beast away FREE to a good home:
http://www.sweetwater.com/publications/sweetnotes/sn-summer96/SumSN_07.html

Needs a little bit of TLC on a few of the TRS inputs, but otherwise, she's a
fine beast.
It's the 24 channel variety, so you need a bit of space: dimensions are 37"
by 24" so it's a large "footprint".
Plus it's quite heavy....

Time for me to go digital I'm afraid, or "numerique" as they say in France.
Let your friends know if they are mixer-minded folk.......

Cheers,
Robin"
