duh...am I missing something here? In my mind, there is only one simple problem...getting enough folks to show up all at the same time. Has anyone else noticed this?

I love the freedom and spontaneity of being able to just "drop in" when it's convenient with me. The price for this convenience is that sometimes nobody else is around. The solution is to obviously schedule meeting times, but somehow, I'm just not one that can commit (except for the concerts which are usually at a regular time that I can plan around). Dave and Jon (and many "regulars" that I recognize, some new friends too) have spent countless hours keeping the room open. Anyone who wants this job...step forward, we can all live in harmony here and have the best of all worlds...but be prepared to put some time in to make it work.

I've never in my life been to a "real life" song circle. From what I've read here (Joe Offer, etc.) they meet once a month or so. This PalTalk room which is open every night seems to be something different. I still say that with enough volunteers, there's just no reason why we can't have the best of all worlds.
