    Are you gong to turn this into some sort of drinking game?

    OK, Polk Audio is sending a representative, if you've been to one before, you've met him, he's been around Polk Audio for a long time. No, it's not Matt or Al or Stu but he likes you people so be glad. I'll leave it at that.

    Also, keep your eyes peeled, I'll be sending out PM's with addresses and such shortly. I have to go get ready for a wedding rehearsal so I'll get to that later.

    Right now we are looking at 20-25 people with members and +1's and some of my neighbors and a couple interested friends. Of course we may lose some along the way and gain a few, either way, party's on.

    There is a fairly good amount of gear that will be available for sampling and Polk Audio is bringing some goodies to get ears on.

    several members are stepping up with some help as well so we are looking to be in a pretty good spot. Looking forward to it!

    Good people, good food, good tunes, could it it get any better?

    If anyone between NYC and jstas wants to catch a ride I can manage another 2 or 3 people easy. Hit me up via email at -- polrbehr at optonline dot net
    and we can work out the details.
    FYI I plan on heading down early Sat., no stayover either.
    So, are you willing to put forth a little effort or are you happy sitting in your skeptical poo pile?

    Sal, if you want I can probably fit your car in the bed of my truck... 15mpg has to be useful for something right? LOL
