Steve Vai/Ibanez Jem raffle for Jemfest! - Are you sure you

[Gabe Nickelson]

Now it's official - Steve Vai has been working with Ibanez to get us a guitar for Jemfest. *It has happened once again! *I don't have the full details on what guitar it will be. *I'm guessing it'll be a current production Jem. *We can arrange to get it signed be Steve as well. *Stay tuned for more info. *100% of all raffle money raised will benefit MANF!!!

I've been in contact with our excellent friend Rich Pike at Vai.com and we have more goodies for the givaways including a sampler CD of artists from Steves record label - Favored Nations. *We'll have tons of these to giveaway! *Other 'mystery' items from Steve will be there too. *You must be there to see 'em!

Extra Drool Buckets will be available in the lobby :love:

Oh man...all the more reason for folks to go. I would advise all who have the opportunity to go...to just go! I' mean not only is it a great way to meet up with so many killer players, but also a good chance for all who share the same love and passion to converse together. And plus power packed performers as well!

And THE PRIZES!!! WooHooo! Yeap...Kevan when are you going to send me a plane ticket? Or should I just fit myself in the case of your next J custom purchase

That is so very generous of Steve and Rich P. Is Rich coming again this year?

Rick

[Gabe Nickelson]

It doesn't look like Rich will make it this year due to him being busy with stuff. *Check out his excellent web site (noneforyoudear.com) and you'll see what I mean.
He's a busy guy and we were very lucky to have him last year. *Hopefully we can get him to show next year.


He and Steve will get to watch the event on video at a later date.

Just to re-state a question... can non-attendees purchase raffle tickets?

[vwall]

Rich (Harris) cant make it cuz he's all wrapped up in this new Lucent Technology~New Jersey~China thing...

C'mon, Rich, just confess and they'll go easy on you:biggrin:

Yes yes, Rich Pike... *sorry about that. *

As far as non-attendees getting in on the raffle... YES! *Here's a quote from Kevan in an earlier post:
