Lord willing, Tom and the TWTophands will be there this year as usual.

The unfortunate fact remains that there are only 51 performing slots in the Jamboree and there are way over 51 players that want to play. There are generally some last minute cancellations for one reason or another, and then players who are in attendance can/are called upon to fill in. But at this stage of the planning, for someone to be added to the show means someone else must be cut from the show, so to make someone happy means making someone else pissed off.

This is the main reason why I'm relieved I don't do the booking and scheduling. And you should be very glad you don't have that job either.

Thanks Herb, of course I would not want to be responsible for that schedule. I can however, speak up and keep my fingers crossed.
