Gretschaterians in St. Paul/Minneapolis
Are there any Gretschaterians in St. Paul/Minneapolis who’d like to form a Gretsch User Group. Do things like a pilgrimage to Willie's Guitar, the Lienkugle Brewery, etc. and promote 'safe guitaring'?????
I'm in St. Paul

yep, I'm in Richfield. that's not too far from St. Paul. actually, Snuffy's, next door to Willie's, might be better to meet at. they have better coffee.

this last year was the last one to be held. perhaps, we can get one started here in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area. the one that "jukebox" organized/held was 200 miles away and participation had dwindled to only a handful of us.
