Thanks all, for the kind wishes! And yes, so far atleast - I get to play the Jumbo Larrivee. I hope it will become an important part of our sound - so substitutes won't be allowed! I've been encouraged to bring along Emily (my little reconfigured Backpacker) - but they haven't seen it yet. They may change their minds when they do! I will get some banjo and harmonica in too, it appears.
