Great full page feature ad!!!

Congratulations, Howard!

I've only looked at the front cover. But now, I will proceed. However, who doesn't know the name of Howard Klepper? Congratulations Howard, you deserve a nod regarding your work. Excellence in Luthiery, that's Howard.

Good for you, Howard!
I met Richard at the last GAL convention (Howard, are you going?) Richard, two guys from down under and I got taken "out on the town" sunday night after the convention was over, as we were all staying one extra night...the four of us were guests of a local who wanted to show us the sights. It started with some music that we all took turns playing in a local bar. Richard is a pretty good player! And then around to a bunch of famous local bars where a bunch of classic rock stars used to play. It was a blast, Richard was a riot, and we all had a great time. Maybe he'll kill me for this- but here's a picture of Richard playing "air guitar" on the stage where Janis Joplin got started...yes, the suds was flowing that night! We had a blast.
