Thanks! My sisters and I have already started preparing! This will be our first time playing together with all four of us like this, so I’m excited to see how we do as a “family band.”

Well Scotty and I were gonna do a killer version with classical guitar, quartet acapella and everything, but then he sprained his left hand fingers and I tore my nail bed, so it looks like we’re gonna have to bag this collaboration :joy: I’m just gonna try to let my finger heal before I play again…

Yikes hope you both recover! :cry: Hope you can jam with us at Jekyll in 2 days!

I probably will, it usually doesn’t take more than 2 or 3 days to heal to a playable level.

Actually, we could just jam Auld Lang Syne at the festival and send that in :joy:

Well we’ve been working on our version already and though it will be a tight cram I think we’ll make it! Looking forward to jamming though!

Ours might be a last-minute entry. A couple of us got sick and the healthy ones have been caring for the sick ones. With a large family, everybody eventually goes down :sweat_smile: so we are just waiting it out and trying to find a decently quiet time to record all our instruments. If you hear kids laughing or screaming in the background, please just ignore. :joy:

Lord willing, we’ll have it all put together in time.
