I think it's too early for an overseas one like in Europe or Asia.

But, I think the Simultaneous Meets around the world might be a better solution. Although it will dilute the Vendor pool a bit. But I think even this solution is too early. I think there needs to be a large European and/or Asian meet (at least 20 people, preferrably 30) sometime this year to set precedence. And then, it might prove that the non-USA Head-Fi contingent is ready for an International Meet as early as 2010, perhaps.

That would be awesome! I went to a mini-meet hosted by Fitz and a great time it was. I have family in Hot-lanta so ...

I think that DC/MD has serious possibilities as does Chicago.

Wherever it is, I would be glad to help, and regardless of that, I will go no matter where it is (my wife better get her job back before that or I'll be living in the park, using squirrels on a wheel to generate power for my setup).

We could have it in Bora Bora in various huts on stilts in 6' of turquoise water. Everyone would get a raft and you could simply row from hut to hut to demo the gear (audio aerobics).

Wow, it'd be like playing Riven!

How about the Florida Keys?

Not as expensive as Cayman, but its a nice tropical area.

Viper and Philidox need to introduce their skin to that bright fiery ball in the sky called THE SUN!

Seriously you cant tell the difference between their skin and the white on the boards here.

Philodox almost died of heat stroke in NightWounds' car as we went on a beer run. Matt's car had been baking in the sun for a bit, but it was a three minute drive. Jay was moaning in the back seat. We were laughing in the front.
