ANNOUNCING the First-Ever tonebase Community VIRTUAL HANGOUT!

Hello, my dear fellow community members! 👋

 

During the ongoing virtuosity challenge I asked you whether you would be interested in a virtual hangout with fellow community members - a place where we can all be on the same video call together.

 

The idea garnered incredible support 🥳 with 95% of people in our livestream voting "yes" to the initiative! Therefore, we are organizing it! 🎉 let's do this!


When?

This Monday (May 24), we will all hop on a Google Meet call together and get to know each other a little better.

Here is the starting time in some popular time zones:

  • 12 pm Pacific / 3 pm Eastern
  • 8 pm United Kingdom
  • 9 pm Central Europe (Spain / France / Germany / Italy / Sweden / Poland / etc.)
  • 10 pm Southeastern Europe (Romania / Greece / Egypt etc.)

The call will start one hour after the Virtuosity Challenge Watch Party on Monday! It is going to be open to all community members, not only challenge participants.

 

If you comment below letting me know you'd like an email invite, the starting time will be automatically converted into your own time zone!

Invite by email:

Would you like to receive an invite to this event straight in your email inbox? Then reply to this thread below ( ↓ ) and I'll make an invite pop into the email address you already use for tonebase.

 

No need to put your address in your comment! It's already associated with your account. Just let me know you want the invite and I'll make it come!


Etiquette

The meeting will not be recorded, nor livestreamed anywhere.

There is no obligation to have your camera or mic on. I certainly hope that some of you will do so, but there is no pressure to do so whatsoever.

You can be a "fly on the wall" - in the call, but never un-muted. You can contribute by just writing in the call chat! That's fine too.

One thing: try to keep yourself muted if you're not talking - this will prevent barking dogs, fire trucks, helicopters, etc. from being broadcasted into everyone's ears. No pressure if you forget though! I can help with this too, as the host of the call.

Who can come?

Any member of the tonebase Community! You do not have to have taken part in the Virtuosity Challenge to be invited.

What will we be talking about?

Anything we want! Yourselves, your journey with the guitar, your experience in tonebase, your videos you sent in for our challenges, general guitar and music topics, etc. We might even play some "get to know each other" games, if we have time!

What do I need to join?

Any internet-capable device. A computer, a phone, a tablet, a laptop - anything.

Being a Google Meet hangout, you can join right from your browser. No need to install any additional software at all!

If your device has a microphone, camera, or both, that's great! Then you'll be able to be seen and heard by the others, should you so desire.

  • Giuseppe Gasparini    Nora Torres-Nagel  I think that'll be just fun to hangout a bit and see/talk each other... and Mircea  will for sure be able to speak to us in any of our own foreign language! 🤣

    I'm just blown away by his ability to switch languages and accents all the way 🤯

      Roni Glaser I sent out an email invite! Looking forward to seeing you there 😎


      Note to everyone else: you do not need an email invite to join. You can simply follow the link in the opening post to do the same.

      If you do want an email invite though, just let me know and I'll send one to the email associated to your account. No need to put your email in a comment - just let me know.

      Let me know if you have any questions!

      Derek I sent you the email invite.

      About the link for my concert: I'm sorry, I only read your message after it was already over. If you'd like to watch the recording of the recital on YouTube though, it's currently available as an unlisted event. It might be taken down at some point in the next few days, but for now it is still there!

      Marek Tabisz Of course! You don't even need to have your camera on - everybody is free to keep their camera and mic off or on, whichever way they feel comfortable. I'll send an invite to your inbox just in case it's easier for you to join that way!
