Well, with everything going on in the world as it is, it just made me wonder what if the worst would happen to one of us - how would we know? I've already thought this about JohnG who never seems to be here and I can't seem to find anything for him on the 'net, not-to-mention the BYCU main site seems not updated either...
At some point it'll stop being maintained, and perhaps this place won't be paid(?) for and will close?!?
I worry the same thing about you regulars here, losing contact with you all...

We'd probably get in more practice time. Just kidding. There have been times when a regular participant has just disappeared and I found myself wondering if something happened to them, so I know what you mean. It's like losing a friend.

It might now hurt to share info or maybe at the least get an email list together. That way we can at least get in touch with each other if the worst does happen.

I can be contacted through my blog. Also, most of us have YouTube channels where we could be contacted.

This is certainly a thought provoking thread. Of course, if I were to get hit by a bus or electrocuted by my amp later today, I won't be responding to my e-mail or my Youtube channel, either... It sounds to me like what we need is a back up plan or an alternate meeting place to go if this forum "disappears". I'm not sure we can safeguard against the part of were something catastrophic to happen to any one of us and we vanished from the forum (unless we also have an e-mail list for next of kin). Even though there is a certain anonymity associated with an internet forum, I think we've all allowed some snippets of our personal lives through, as well, which I think strengthens our shared connection here. I know I would feel a loss were it to disappear.

Yup, same here Should this site someday cease to exist, Joachim and I are friends on Facebook - my name is Jack Cieminski, which is also the name of my YouTube channel. So if anybody wants to get ahold of me you could find me in either of those places.

Phil has my contact info too. This is a topicI have thought about as well. In a pinch phil has his blog we could use that as a possible way to connect. WPB should have me on his zoom contacts. I am on Active Melody from time to time.
