IN!

Tyl, I'll call you in a few days still interested in some of the ideas we talked about? Love to have you involved in our computer audio breakouts!!

People there are some really gerat things that are brewing we'll have some big announcements coming up in the next month or two.

I am absolutely sure that our vendor community and member community will come together to make this an event that will be long remembered.

Vincent I remember almost passing out in the k1000 room after drinking bourbon with Tyll in his awesome room in San Jose. We needed and english to agile_one dictionary after that session, Gene was in rare and extremely fun form. Ask Aaron about Gene's grip

For an old dude, Gene has the grip of a Rottweiller! I still can't pee without feeling pain

He has since made it up to me through everlasting friendship and a great deal on a pair of phones

Honolulu-L.A. isnt that far. I would love to attend, will try to look into making arrangements. Might be going to Japan around the same time. Have to see if everything will work w/schedule.
Good Luck & Happy Holidays

Yeah, for me, as of right now, it's financially irresponsible of me to go to CanJam '09, although I suspect it would be anyways....

If the government can be financially irresponsible, than so can we

Life is to short to sweat the little things (take that from a guy who lost a 54 y.o. friend who died from a heart attack after scrimping and saving every penny his whole life).

Life has to be a delicate balance. Headphones and amps are balanced...so there you go!

We'll see though; I really do want to try and make it, but in the interim, I'm trying to pull together an Indiana meet around Rose-Hulman (my school).

More to come folks but the date has been set and is 5/29-31

Be on the lookout for an official announcement with more details and gussied up and all. But we have a home for three days in LA with an amazing group of local Headfiers that is going to put on an awesome gathering.

NorCal we'll need to put together a Magic Bus to party our way down and back from this event.
OUTSTANDING!!!!! Hope that you'll get a site by the beach!
