Paddy and Ulf!

Shall we start a PSG business half way between New Z, Finland and Sweden?
I think there is a empty store in Ulan Bator.

Actually, Lark In The Morning Music have just only recently moved
from their old spot in Fisherman's Wharf, out to the Mission at 25th (I think) and Valencia near Cesar Chavez St. Still, if you are interested, it would be worth your while to go by that way.
And it is kind of weird that there are no specialty steel stores around here, but I can reccomend these people if you are in town and you have any need of repairs to your steel-
Gary Brawer Guitars on Lafayette at Mission & 11th.

If you take the BART (Bay Area Rapid Transit) from San Francisco I believe one of the trains stops right across the street from The Fifth String in Berkeley. I think it's the Ashby Bart Station.

Wolfgang,

A few friends and I are going to Hardly Strictly on Saturday, Oct 4. It is a huge crowd, well over 250,000 people with 5 stages of music throughout the day.

We are arriving about 7AM to find the stage where The Desert Rose Band is playing and we're setting up an HQ there. So if you would like, you may contact me and I will give you some more specifics. That way you can peruse the festival and then come on by to listen to one of the all time great west coast country bands (scheduled to come on at 1).
The offer is open to anyone else who is going to be attending as well.....cept for Zirbel who has a phobia about being outdoors in the daylight....smiles.
