Default Any Chance For A Visit?

Hey MD;

I'm going to be in Chicago from Monday (today) 'till Thursday.

Any chance this Head-Fier and *frequent* MD buyer could stop by for a meet & Greet?

I plan on bringing/buying some vinyl to demo at Glenn Poor's "Big System"

Thanks (PM with details, if you'd like)

NK

Nick214,

We are open to the public, and would love to have you come by! Give me a buzz at 312-738-5018, if you need directions -- we're a bit hard to find. We are just a bit west of downtown, less than a $10 cab ride.

Looking forward to seeing you there.

Best,

Mark

Excellent!

I'll give you a ring sometime Wednesday. I'm staying in Deerville(?) right now; I'm tagging along on s business trip with my father (I'm 19). So we'll take a train to the city, and set off from there!

Thanks!

NK

you guys and gals can never put a sign on the building, it was a large part of the shock and awe when i used to shop there!

Musicdirect is like the gravity force for Audiophile music. you peeps are like the center of any high grade music out there, any person who owns any hifi gear has at least one cd or lp that has gone threw you peeps at some point!

i will be visiting you in the future to talk about "Canjam 2010 National headphone meet" in Chicago, i just need to make sure my credit card has enough room...haha
