    Ok then; we might have some quorum...

    The dates would be fixed to June 10/11 if it's going to be at my place, which I'd love to share with the forum.

    Summer..BQ time...if you have not tried my "special" tri tips "a la parrilla", you have not yet tried anything :)

    Keep'em coming...

    O.K i'll come for the tri-tips...if there happens to be some Polks and some other gear...well that's a bonus. But I really want the BBq :D:D

    Cool, count me in for the June 10/11 thing, assuming we don't have some sporting event or vacation planned. I'd love to meet some of you guys and get my ears on some of your nice gear.

    I'll bring some brewskies.

    Unfortunately...I won't be able to host the gathering on June 11/12; I am being pulled to support some projects in Latin America and will need to do some heavy travelling during the summer. Right now I do not have firm dates, but schedule is getting busy early June, and knowing how these things work I do not want to have everyone planning for that weekend and then call it off at the last minute.

    It's a pitty because I really wanted to have some polkies over for some tunes, drinks and food.....we'l do it sometime in the near future.
