windy city is a bit far for me, but maybe some day, Atlanta or Nashville.

Have a great time man.

One time when we chatted Muris you mentioned maybe coming to Salt Lake City......is that not gonna happen???? sad.gif

Posted by: fkalich Sep 17 2009, 06:14 AM

I don't suppose you are coming to Kansas City. Lot's of ex-Jugoslavia people here, although mostly 3rd/4th generation. I'll mention it to my older brother in Chicago. He flies the Slovenian flag on Slovenian independence day, that is ex-Jugoslavian enough I think.

Have fun on your tour Muris. Some videos and photos would be great when you return!

I would definitely come and see you if I lived in the states! Good luck on the tour! smile.gif

Posted by: David Wallimann Sep 17 2009, 04:46 PM

Any chance you'll be coming to Colorado?



Posted by: Fingerspasm Sep 17 2009, 05:31 PM

If work allows I might run up there to check things out. Its about a 7 hour drive not a big deal especially to check out some good guitar playing.

Posted by: rokchik Sep 17 2009, 11:06 PM

Have fun Muris, Chicago is a great city smile.gif

Are you coming to Canada again?

You, me and Monte need to try and make some plans man! smile.gif We can make this happen.

How awesome would this be. Watch Muris, invite everyone back to the hotel, get kicked out because we are jamming to late and making a video for GMC. Just like the old days! We can all just bring our acoustics and jam. smile.gif

Anyone else is welcome as well wink.gif

Wish you the best with your US tour Muris smile.gif

Posted by: Muris Varajic Sep 18 2009, 08:39 PM

Here I am in Chicago!! smile.gif

Weather is just beautiful, sunny and hot which was quite surprising,
I expected more windy and colder weather. biggrin.gif

We have soundcheck in 2 hours and then gig.
Will keep you posted, talk soon! smile.gif

I don't think so Jim......I don't even think he plays electric on this tour....... sad.gif I'm sure he's still amazing to watch though.....no doubt about that..... cool.gif

Posted by: Marcus Siepen Sep 22 2009, 04:02 PM

Definitely let me know in case you come to Germany to play some shows, I would love to come.
