No laying ass bombs in the meet room either...if you have to float a air biscuit take it outside...Im serious too...no playing Gas chamber in the meeting room.

I always wear a hat when i test other peoples gear...hell, i even do it with my gear cause im OCD like that.

I do carry a drink with me, however its a closed lid drink like a plastic bottle with a screw cap. I dont carry on my person, but its normally kept in one of my bags. If i do eat, ill take my ass outside and sit at a table or if they have a nice lobby area to snack down.

Also, learn how to touch stuff...like tubes and what not if you planning on using that stuff. I know its normally ok to touch glass on tubes however, personally I NEVER TOUCH GLASS on tubes.

Never open up anyones CDP without asking...never use a persons amp with your headphones without asking...or vice versa.

Respect everyones gear as if it were your own. Most of us bringing a few thousand dollars in equipment just for people to listen to..be very careful and treat everything as it were CRYSTAL!

Also, most important....make sure you do have any BO (BODY ODOR)...if you went for a run prior to the meet, take your ass home and SHOWER!!
