There is an opportunity for humor there that I'm going to ignore...

There are usually a lot of spare blankets floating around and people who get cold are the ones who don't ask. (Possibly because they don't think a nice autumn day will go all antarctic on them at night.) Instruments are usually lent if one asks, as are many things, but it's best to bring your own toothbrush and socks.

I've played blues on fiddle before, Bobert!

Bill, it will be GREAT to see you again, and to meet Skipjack!
