There has been some discussion on the CodeMash discussion board about a jam session this year: Music at the conference?
After reading the thread, I saw where nobody had voluteered for drum-duty, so I did. I'm pretty excited about this, to say the least. I'm going to try and talk James into either singing or bringing his saxophone. :)
Flashback: Many years ago, Data Dynamics took a trip to San Fransisco and there was a band playing at one of the Microsoft after-hour events (making some pretty good money, I'm sure). We were all mingling about with our drinks in hand, and I went up to meet the band. I was talking to them (in between songs) and asked if I could sit in on the drums for one of their songs... surprisingly they let me! I'll never forget that. They announced my name and stated that I work for Data Dynamics (free publicity) before we played and then we ended up playing "Brown-Eyed Girl" for the crowd. The people I was traveling with (Tim & Ferhat, if I remember correctly) couldn't believe I even asked. :) I think Ferhat even took pictures (?). This was all before I was blogging of course, or this would have DEFINITELY made it on my blog.
Ok, back to present day... I'm hoping somebody will bring a digital camera and we could record the CodeMash theme song. :) If all goes well, we may end up travelling around the world opening for various pop stars... Ok, maybe not. Anyway, Scott is preparing a keynote presentation to tie many things together and he plans to stick around afterwards to talk to people and answer tough questions. This ought to be a great event. :)

Saxophone? I played trombone in high school....wasn't that great at it either....not sure about the singing thing either; but we'll, heh, play it by ear.
Hi Luc,
just wanted to let you know, Trails and Tribulations has decided not to die, and we should have a new podcast on Sunmart available soon.
We're also running at Mohican State Park Dec 23-17 or 21 miles on trails if you are interested.
Send me an email if you are interested in trail running, I'm not far away, outside of Newcomerstown.
