VIRTUAL CAMPFIRE

I'm up for it.  I miss those things.  If no one else, we can have fun Beamer.  Now finding a time... ha.  There's the hard part.  Every weekend is booked through Thanksgiving I think.  I'll double check the calendar, but finding a time is what's hard.

I haven't used it for quite some time but I just checked, the account is still there and somehow I remembered the password.

I'll join in.

ETA. I haven't used a mic with this computer yet so I'll need to play around and make sure I can get everything to work.

I haven't done one of these in ages - I'd like to join if the timing is right

What Amy said! I had to just delete the thing out of my computer and re-download it.  I have also ran my Studio mic into my mixer and into the puter, but running one direct will work also with a adapter from 1/4 to 1/8th to the mic jack or if you have a USB mic it will pick it up, look in your skype sound settings to choose which one you want it to run with.

I will probably use camera mic but sing through my effects boxes into the monitor cab I have (No auto tune for me, so anything to enhance my voice!)

Most webcams have built in mics, they are good enough for this purpose.So if we are looking at 4pm my time, this Saturday is definitely out, I have a big detail paint correction job, however IF I get done in time, I can just text whoever in a mass text and let them know.  Sunday is probably out as the job I am doing wont start till "after church" for the customer, so 12ish to 1ish for a start time, my hope is 2.5 hours, but usually its about 4 (this is a free one they won, so not a DEEP clean, more of a spritzing.)

So, even If I asked for your numbers in the past (Amy, Jeff, and Z) if everyone can Private Message me either from the Chordie mail or FB, I can send a mass text.  By God we can make this happen My camera in the man cave shoots to a nice corner with the drums in it.  We may have noise of BATTLEFIELD WW1 going on in the back as my boys are plenty addicted to it right now LOL.  They have headphones they can use, maybe they will even join in. Cade wont sing though, Cory may start beating the drums.  We shall see.

OK get the numbers to me and I will just keep in mind that 3 to 5 is the best window from my time zone.

Sunday is out for me. Scott and I are going to do an open mic that evening so I'll be going to his place to loosen up a bit in the afternoon. I'll probably work Saturday morning but will be home in plenty of time to join an evening "campfire".
Scott, I'll PM my number.

Amy, I know you're on Skype and working in the morning. When I see that you're online, may I call you and do a quick check to make sure I have things working right?

Hey hey hey! 

Ok - so Joe and I did a sound/video check last night.  He's all set up and ready to go!  Scott - did you say Saturday is totally out for you?    Sunday is most likely a no-go for me.  Maybe we can catch you next Saturday?  Zurf, Joe and Bill - even if Scott can't make it Saturday, maybe we can catch you guys!

Bill - DARN IT!  Still no guitar?  This is no bueno!  I might just have a solution to that problem though...  In the mean time, we'd still love to have ya join us on Skype!  As Scott described it, when playing via Skype it has to be run like a "campfire circle" - basically each person takes a turn while everyone else mutes their mics.  If you have something to play along with, you can, however you have to do so with your mic muted.  This is because Skype is only able to handle one person talking at a time.  So - you can certainly join in and listen on, and chit chat in between.  A lot of the time, there's more chit chatting than there is actual guitar playing anyway!  Ha ha! 

I guess we'll just see what happens!  I found three different possible profiles for you on Skype, Bill - and I've send them all a contact request!  When you get a chance to log onto it, which whatever profile you use, confirm the contact request and we'll go from there! 

I guess we aren't Skypenating tonight.  Ping me on my cell phone if y'all get started.

Was the owner of the Caddy pleased?  I thought the car looked a whole lot better when you were done with it.
