Gtx thats Luigi with the guitar these guys play at the west end of tbe island I'm not sure if its a tak he plays ,my mate Kev J who plays in York has a couple of taks a six string in the uk and a 12 here.
Phill wasnt it the new vaudeville band that did Winchester cathedral?

Know  what  you  mean Nela, its  coming  up  to  moonshine  time  here  in Crete Raki  brewing  starts  at  the  end  of  this  month .
I  suspect    the  reason Lou  has  made  this  system is  its  a  bit  of  a  protest  against  the authority's  stopping  the  use  of amplification  in bars unless they are  licenced and  the artists  are  all insured. I  didn't  think  The  west  of  the  island  had  been affected  but  it  looks  now if  they  too have  been .
Another  friend who  has  a  taverna in Sitia  where we live  recently had  his  place   closed   for  10 days and  received  a  heavy  fine .
Businesses  are  struggling  to  make  ends meet  with  out the government  driving  the  customers  away, Maybe  Lou  has  the  answer.

Thanks dino  yeah I do like the ovation  its been great it  stays in tune regardless of weather conditions .Ive played it in 40 degrees no problems .
I dont think it has the tone of my Eko or my Squier but for an everyday go to guitar its great.The bowl back can be awkward if you don't use a strap.

No problem to a name change .Chordiefest Chordiejam  any others come to mind.
What views do we have about structure ,concert format where every one gets a slot of alocated time ,folk club format where we go round the group in turn and others join in or listen.Open mic format ,3 songs and your off.
Maybe a guest pro player if we can find one wiling

I've  just  had  a look at  the  Rascals  song  and  lyrically  there  are some similarity's but  maybe the  same  thing  could  be  said  about many  blues  songs   using  the  same style  of  lyric .Though I  do  see  what  you  mean Dino

cool  we've  just  done  32  hope  we  live  to  see 44

So basically   we need  to  get  this  ball rolling .As I  am in Crete  until the beginning  of 2015 somebody  in the  UK  needs  to  source  a  venue.
Volunteers  please.
Many  of  the  hotel chains  like premier inn ,holiday inn travel lodge, best western etc will  have  a  function room available, probably  free if we  can guarantee booking  a  certain number  of  rooms,  Same  applies to  private  venues.
An  event  like  this  properly  organised  and  presented  will promote Chordie and be  a lot  of  fun too.

Are  there  more  than three  chords  ?  long  live  rock and  roll . well done  Brian
