2008 Christmas Party 12272008 photos

The 1st Baltimore SDIY Group 2008 Christmas Holiday Party on 12/27/2008 went extremely well. Jeff Brown came with his modular synthesizer, Art Harrison brought his new Theremin (www.harrisoninstruments.com), Dave Vosh brought his mini DIY modular & Doepfer modular systems, David Rickert brought his DIY mini modular system, Davis White brought his laptop system with the REASON program, Peter Blasser brought his DIY Theremin, Hal Schmulowitz brought his Korg R3/Roland SH32/Yamaha DX-200, my guest Mike Delvison brought his Korg DW8000 & I brought my Korg MS2000BR/Roland D-100/Yamaha DX-200/Doepfer A-100 series mini modular synthesizer.

My co-worker Annette Quarles had a great time playing Art's Theremin. Dave Vosh's wife Janis came as well as my wife Fanny & my father Henry Mitchell Jr. Two of my friends, Leslie Hendricks & his cousin Warren Morris Jr stopped by to check out the equipment on their way to a band rehearsal. We were going to have a jam session but we all just ended up checking out each other's synthesizers, talking with each other, eating, drinking, taking pictures & having a good time. Check out the photos in the ATTACHMENTS section below.

Thank you so much to Hal & Kim Schmulowitz for coordinating & putting on this event. Job well done.
