Today I became the organizer for this group.

I am pretty new to guitar, having started playing in September, 2010.

That just means I have so much more to learn. I'd also like to start playing with/around other people, and hear other people play as well. I play acoustic guitar.

I never attended a meetup with this group, so you probably don't know me unless you have seen me in another one.

I live in Multnomah VIllage, and my house is large enough that we can gather here from time to time.

I'd guess we'd never get more than 8 people to a session, but I'd probably limit meetups to that number.

 If I just meet a handful of people to play with, this group will be a success for me.

But maybe it will become more than that.

 

I liked what Lance wrote...

The Portland Guitar Group is a gathering for guitarists of all levels to get together and jam! From beginners to professionals, everyone is welcome to attend. All styles are welcome too. 

 the majority of sudents/guitarists never go beyond practicing at home and playing alone to meeting other people to jam with.  This group will change all that for you.  One of the best ways to improve is to play along with other people. So sign up, come on out, and jam!
