Facebook is a great medium for discussions of all kinds, and you can
include photos, cartoons, posters, whatever, with your post. Usenet
discussions are pretty much kaput.

-----------------------------------------

I used Facebook mainly as a social connection for activities related
to the guitar shop and performance venue. It is a page that I created
tied to my personal Facebook page that I don't post to often. I
still maintain the Re-Tunes! page because it was started under my
account but my friend who now owns and runs the guitar shop is the
primary administrator.

My winter project is finally coming to the last couple of weeks before
completion and having the "grand opening". Last week I ran all new
electrical power and outlets for the stage and lights. The stage is
big .... 24 ft by 12 ft and I ran three individual 20 amp services to
it, so there's plenty of power.

Yesterday and today I primed and painted the wall behind the stage
flat black. Big wall ... almost 40 feet wide by 14 feet high. Looks
good now and provides a great backdrop for bands playing on the stage,
with colored stage lights as a wall wash.

Only things left to do is some more painting, hanging of acoustic
drapes and decorative stuff like pictures and displays. Need to hook
up the PA system, run a 100 ft audio snake to the mixing board and it
should be ready to go. Well, almost. I have to find tables and
chairs again. We had a pile of them but I sold some and gave away
the rest when we closed the old shop, never thinking I'd be involved
with this again.

Looking forward to having people use the new performance venue. We
had a lot of fun at the other one and witnessed some amazing talent.


Be sure and let us know when these guys show up.
