Hey guys I have noticed that many of us are from the peoples republic of MD. I am rather new to the forum but would think that it would be cool to get a gathering together.

I am even willing to host. I don't have any SRS or wicked expensive amps but I have cold beer, big backyard and plenty of grilling room.

I am in the Perry Hall area.

Ideas ?? Thoughts ????

    I can make the drive to Perry Hall:D Sounds like a good time. I was also thinking about having something but I have not been able to work out a date for the festivity with Mrs. Millerlite.

    Tony, count me in if we are in town on the date. I could also bring some gear if you would like.

    In Baltimore. Close to the Towson area.

    Bring the NY beer. Leave the Yankee's there. Just kidding.

    You're all referring, of course, to Elkton, Maryland....the marrying capital of the U.S. You can get married there for almost nothing with no blood test or much of any other requirement or papers--same day service--or so they say!

    I have a flexi rack that I could bring. It works well for switching gear in and out.

    I didn't forget about you MD guys. I have a demanding job and getting actual free time is hard to come by sometimes. I am thinking in two - four weeks.

    Let me check with the women and my work schedule.


    Hopefully soon guys.

    Sorry guys. It's been a difficult couple of months at work. Just trying to get another (sorry) idea of who might be interested. I still am.

    Within the month or so is cool with me. Cooler temps too.

    Just say when, so that folks can make plans. Also, keep in mind that Polkfest is Nov. 7/8.
