This looks like it is shaping up already!

I knew if beer was mentioned it would start moving much faster

[THEE HAMMER]

yea beer galore.

seems like a pig-pickin' is in order.

Everyone interested in attending, from anywhere... go ahead and talk with us.

The bigger the better baby.

[GilkyBear]

Aww man, beer AND a pig pickin'! This will be epic.

This thread reminded me that I had to edit my profile location.

I am back in North Cackalackee, later this spring I will be working in PA. I think this is a great idea and I'm interested in attending.

But all of us have busy lives and it will be tough to pull off. My biggest motivation for attending would be to actually meet some folks. The internet is good for some things but it can't compete with in-person interaction.

My wife says a non-Memorial Day Saturday in May wouldn't be a problem But I agree with the just hanging out and meeting angle being the primary point for getting together. I think a decent stereo and a pool table may end up getting more attention than the guitars and amps

Then we can have it down here at my buddy Matt's house! But then it will probably involve a lot of beer and liquor...

J/K, I know that's way too far for anyone to drive.

[THEE HAMMER]

yea, a meetup not set up by a huge corporation is long overdue.

[jim777]

Whereabouts are we talking about again? I may as well start looking at mapquest for hotel/motels and such. If we are going to be setting up amps and such, and playing (and drinking) packing up and getting back to wherever we're crashing is a thought. Distance and cab availability and that sort of thing will determine if I bring my VWH or a car full of PA and synths and drum machine and other assorted 'play along with' toys.

I'd love to make it.....but it's a tad too far away for me.
Too bab we can't get alittle more north.

Local cab co.'s.... idk.... there's a cowboy limo service hahaha.

ummm


lemme check on that stuff for yall.

[jim777]

Hmmmm Mapquest say 8 hour drive and 450 miles...

[GilkyBear]

Meh, 7 hours 45 minutes tops

[Andy43]

I'd go, but I'd only be willing to drive about 30 miles from here, so it'd have to be around the Raleigh area for me.

[jaxadam]

You couldn't squeeze out an extra 5 miles or so?

[THEE HAMMER]

Dunn/Erwin Is 42 miles from Raleigh...

just follow 40 towards wilmington, turn right onto I-95 go 6 miles and you are there.
