So here is the deal.

We need to do another get together, its been too long.

So I am opening up my place in Brownsburg for a get together. We can start as early as 10 am and go till night (end time depends on what date we have it on) My thought is we grill out burger and brats, order pizza, basically have some sort of food. There will be some drinks (non-alcholic) I will be glad to pickup, and some snacks. If you wanted your own beer/liquor, etc you would need to provide cause you guys like some weird stuff :wink:. Some sort of small contribution by each person to help offset food costs would be preferred, but we can work that out later.

If people want to bring a bunch of speakers to setup and listen to we stuff we can, or we can just all get together talk smack, eat some food, etc. I am open to either. Anything in my rig will be around to listen to and play with. If you have stuff your selling feel free to bring it and use my house as the place to exchange it, etc.


I would LOVE it if we could make it happen on Saturday May 10th. My wife and kid will be out of town already that day which just makes it MUCH easier on me.

Otherwise I am open to other dates as long as they are not May 24th, May 31st, June 7th, June 14th or June 28th. My wife works those Saturdays which means I have Daddy duty and cant play.

If your interested or planning on coming, please make a note in this thread. This is not forum members only, feel free to bring other audio buddies with you. I just need a headcount for logistics. Your even welcome if your NOT from the midwest but just feel like coming :smile:.

So lets see if we cant make May 10th work, or start seeing what days folks are available.

    Strippers?....Strippers with scars?....Strippers love music. In fact, they probably like the same urban beats you jam out too except with their clothes off.....or do you have that in common as well? :-P

    Find me a place to put a sleeping bag for the night and I need something cheap to buy so I can write off the mileage. As far as strippers.... college age without kids would be a plus, I have the past college age and had kids model at home already.

    With all this stripper talk, I think you're now obligated to have them. Notice the "them" and not the "her". More the merry'er!

    This journey is only 14 hours by car and 10 hours by Porsche, maybe a good excuse for a drive.

    Dan just converted his yard to Astroturf, so there will be no worries about them grazing in his yard anyway...

    Anyone a for sure? Have heard a lot of talk but no ins.

    If the 10th of May won't work we can do it some other time, or even somewhere else.

    We just need to have us another get together....

    Them TEXAS BOYS are making us look bad :mrgreen:

    Dan

    If I can talk the misses out of me having to do that "distance" family wedding thing, which I really don't want to go to anyway,
    I'd love to visit, check out the new place and talk shop.

    May 10 will work for me, but the date changes with more polkies, let me know.

    Dan I can't do the 10th, but as unlikely as me getting to actually come up sounds...if you get a date for the other guys schedule and the wife is off for 2 days I just might take a drive up to indy.

    Thats a big No on the 10th for me, we have a wedding to attend.

    The wife did make a few bids on an old marantz amp as a consolation jesture for me.
    That did not work out either, she got out bid :(
