For those interested in playing some music with us at the LSA
(guitars, voice, and other nonelectric instruments), I have a
room for the event.  If you are coming, contact me via the
Sheraton front desk. We start jamming at 630PM and will go to
about 830. Then we have plenty of time to go hear some electric,
Chicago blues.
