Saying that it's "too hard" to pursue your dreams is no different than admitting to yourself that you are too lazy to achieve them.

That's not it. We've always tried to have an audio family type forum here, which fosters get togethers many of which aren't posted on the forum. Folks tend to figure out who is local to them, one thing leads to another and the next thing you know you're hanging out at someone's house.
Then we have a thing called Polkfest, which this year will be held in Baltimore. Stayed tuned for more on that event.

Actually my post was a feeble attempt at sarcasm. The point I wanted to make was actually a positive comment on this community, with people actively looking to meet vs. trashing each other on the boards.
In fact, I discussed the meet up with a fellow Polkie just yesterday. I stopped by to check out some gear and we ended up doing business.

We all complain about getting our ears on gear since the fall of BOM stores, this is good way to bridge the gap.

Nice to have you over John! I've been so busy setting things up after everything arrived.
I can do any Sunday in March. Don't sell yourself short John, you have a darn good ear as a musician
Well, great gear helps one have a good ear!
Your set up is most impressive!

I will also pray for your Mother's health, and look forward to meeting you at some point in the future.

All the gear in my sig will be on display, but let's get a list going of those coming and a gear list.
Looking forward to seeing you all real soon.
