It has shipped - just waiting on it's arrival. Shipping from Canada has been taking a LONG time recently, though...

Yeah, I just had my longest delivery wait ever; 9 days for HD-600s from Cali using USPS. Well, technically waiting for my PS1 to come back from Canada took longer (2 1/2weeks), but this felt the longest.

yeah - I have had two overnight packages never even get to me! Apparently, the Freq have been having many problems with usps lately *not their fault*

* UPDATE * - It does not seem that I will have my SuperFreq's for this meet becauseof lost packages in USPS.

OK, now a question....

Does anyone live or pass by Evanston on their way?

I would be appreciative of a "ride"!

If there are few folks who want to take the "EL", I could probably do a pickup at the end of the Green Line Harlem station at maybe 11:20. PM me if interested in that.

Also,some folks have asked to come a little early to set up - 11:30 is fine for that.

Looking forward to seeing you all!

I have a choice. Come an hour early, or come an hour late (do to metra weekend timing)

I don't want to take up your offer of picking me up at the end of the green line, because I can take the metra and leave that for someone that needs it.

I guess I could just chill for an hour or half an hour at the metra station and listen to some tunes

Go early for gawds sake! Go early!

The more time the better.

When, oh when, will we ever do something like this in Houston?!!!??? Jeez! and with "O.G. Rock Stars" present and what not!

Sick with envy!

<"green with," ... doesn't even approximate it>



...

@ Aura : looking forward to your OCN reviews/comments bro!
