Tony Hoffman signing in
« on: January 02, 2012, 05:29:01 pm »
Hi all

It's Hoffers here, all signed up as a member of this community and looking forward to being part of this Ventures fan base.

Some of you may know that I'm based in the UK and publish a full colour Ventures magazine called The Ventures International Review. Issue 5 is the latest with #6 due in February/March.
I also stock many of The Ventures' Japanese CDs and offer them at realistic prices.

I also have an instro website www.instrumentalreview.com and have just released a CD under the name of The Tone Raiders featuring 16 guitar instrumentals in the style of The Shadows, Ventures, Duane Eddy, Outlaws and more.

Get in touch if any of this interests you!

cheers
Hoffers (Tony Hoffman)

Incidentally Tony, I'm willing to do that 'even exchange' thing we did last year regarding your fabulous magazine.  I've got a
2011 FAN JAM DVD SET waiting to mail out.  I assume the first issue of the new year signifies RENEWAL TIME for alot of us.

Hi Tom,

Yeah, let's do it.
Funnily enough I've mentioned the fan jam in latest issue of VIR.

I assume you still have my details.

regards
Tony

Yes I do.  In fact ALL FOUR issues were on display with my other memorabilia at the jam.  Suppose as long as I
continue with THE JAM each year & you with THE MAGAZINE, we'll just look to do 'the same exchange' annually!

Tony- Should have your 2011 JAM COLLECTION off to you this week.
Perhaps your LATEST ISSUE will pass my parcel in the system.
Sure hope so- it's always ENTERTAINING READING!

Thanks for posting this Magazine update!  My subscription is already in for the next 4 issues.
The Ventures International Review is a must addition to Del's Walk, Don't Run book, a reference masterpeice!  It' sort of a "Neverending Story" of The Ventures!

Just got issue 5 in the mail!

Doctor Who?

That show featured some Beatles clips in the past in historical context.  Have there been any sows on TV featuring The Ventures?

Tony,

Thanks for sharing your great website. I've already shared it with the folks on Surf Guitar 101, as there is a huge overlap in interest and thought it might send some traffic your way. There is a 3-day instrumental music summit coming up in May in Chapel Hill, NC. Might you have any interest in it? Let me know if you are and would want to contact the organizer.

Noel

This is the lineup:
Friday, May 4th:

Killer Filler
Mystery Men?
Aqualads
Weisstronauts
Destination: Earth
The Madeira
Kill, Baby...Kill!

Saturday, May 5th:

Atom Bumz
9th Wave
The Surge!
Atomic Mosquitos
The Intoxicators
Coffin Daggers
Blood Red River

Sunday, May 6th:

3rd Expression
The Meteor Men
The Monterreys
The Rebel Surfers
Thee Icepicks
NoSeRiDerS
Concrete Rivals

Noel- One of our regular annual jammers, Michael Waters attends & participates every year.
Will this be your first appearance?   Maybe Michael could shed some light on just how those
weekends usually unfold!   More particulars are needed.
