First Loop Gig and NYC trip

["lol c" <testtubemicro@hotmail.com>]

  Im actually taking a trip to New York City between the 1st and the 14th 
so 
if theres nyone who knows of any loop related nights ect or fancys a jam, 
get in touch, I wont be taking equipment with me as I plan to buy a new 
guitar and loop equipment while im out there (part of the reason for 
going,give the girlfriend a holiday and get some cheaper gear).
  after that when I return i will be looking for gigs in the east 
yorkshire 
area (not really famed for its music but hey!!)
  will definatly record my set next time so will post the results.

all the best

Phill
