I'll be there the entire weekend. There are several more affordable hotels within walking distance and plenty of places besides the Anatole to eat within walking distance.
There are plenty of flights into DFW International (25 to 30 min.) or Love Field (10 to 12 min.) to the hotel.

I'll be there, and if you're lucky you'll catch me at the check-in desk.
Trying to be more strategic about where I want to spend time this year, so I've already started to look through the brands attending and plan things out.Analog: Hana ML > MoFi UltraDeck > Sutherland 20/20 w/LPS

That's the spirit! Pun intended.
Tom~ In search of accurate reproduction of music. Real sound is my reference and while perfection may not be attainable? If I chase it, I might just catch excellence. ~
