Ah, nostalgia. I fondly remember the Tapfests that occurred from time to time. I recall one out on Long Island shortly after I came east in 1996 and 2 or 3 at a jazz restaurant on 10th Ave in Chelsea in Manhattan. Theresa Carey, Stu Lieberman, Et al. I think the notorious ’Nando Gelbard even showed up on occasion. Those pre World Wide Web TAPCIS days were a trip. . It’s hard to imagine worrying about per minute charges and 2400 baud modems nowadays.

Good memories (including TAPCIS) for us old-timers, although you don't qualify as "old," Dan!
