RGC Round Robin at Asbury Red Room, April 16, 2012

Our second meeting at the Red Room, 1010 East Avenue was a traditional round robin session. Since there is no stage in the room, we abandoned our performer/audience format of the last several years and went back to our original “round robin” approach, as we had done in the early days at Bernie Lehmann’s studio.

Appropriately enough, Bernie was on hand for the occasion along with fifteen or so other guitar enthusiasts. As lively conversation intermingled with the music, we enjoyed the sounds of Bernie’s resonator guitar, Scott Topel’s harp guitar and Mark Grover’s electric guitar, just to mention a few of the musical treats provided. Except for the electric guitar, no amplification was needed in this splendid room.
