I guess I'm from Kentucky because I'm bringing some Pappy Van Winkle.

Bring two, I'm thirsty ... Spell it correctly, though, or we'll call you a poseur.

All this talk of wine makes me think CanJam will be more just a Jam...

This meet is starting to sound interesting. My buddy and I are talking about driving down there Blues Brother's style and throwing down the gauntlet on this drinking thing... I'll bring a half gallon of genuine absinthe and let the bodies hit the floor. Picture a couple caffeine powered yahoos in a bright red Pontiac full of Burger King wrappers and venom... We'll call the trip "Fear and Loathing In Head-Fi"

With all of this talk of spirit consumption, I hope it doesn't turn out like the "Source Awards" a couple of years ago.

We could save money, skip renting the Banquet Rooms and go to the largest park in FLL and bring tents, sleeping bags, and our 200TB 7th Generation Ipods with Bose Triports.

Gene: Like Hannukah, there are many versions of the spelling (aka Thunderbird). Never mind how the company spells it...what do they know?

Please find enclosed a link to my research:

People are going to think that all we do is drink, which is not so far from the truth but remember this is first and foremost a meet. And it's a meet where we are going to try and focus on the music as much as the gear which is the reason we are going to have live entertainment this year.

Now the after parties, that's another story.

I'm just trying to make sure that it won't be a drunken bash in the conference room seeing as how i'm just a little bambino!
