Thanks for the suggestions on a coat to purchase, those who participated.

The winner is...drumroll.....





















The REI Co-Op Magma 850 Down Jacket.





850 of Down fill, one of the highest in the industry (higher fill usually is a thick ski jacket or uber expensive), is ultra lightweight, and is keeping me warm as I type this! The Down jacket will be a layer underneath my Puma America's Cup Team USA Oracle Tag Heuer Sailing Jacket, which is essentially a lightweight weather-resistant shell jacket.

I have the problem that my parents bought 3 tickets at once for us and it only ever asked for one name, so does that mean that my mom's name will be on all 3?

Hate to admit that IMO this is one of the most surreal posts ever...
 
...but then again maybe I'm just jealous that my parents would never consider going to something like this, but seeing that I'm the parent of 3 it would be a bit strange.

Nice! No worries, just PM the man, the myth, the legend, third_eye, and I'm sure that he will take care of it!

VERY nice choice!

Silly question added. Do I have to preregister or can I just show up on Saturday and pay then?

As CanJam's you can typically pre-register or just just show up, but the "day-of"/"at the door" pricing is incrementally higher (something like $5). Cheers and hope to see you there

I would have preferred the option to only have the headfi nick displayed, really. It would probably make the most sense anyway.


Second that!

Honestly, my parents have somewhat come to hate this hobby because it's all I talk about and cost a lot of money, they've just been wanting to take me to NYC since they used to go a lot before they had me. Plus they both used to work for US Airways(now the new American) so flying doesn't cost us much.

He took care of it for me. I'm extremely excited about going, the only meet I've ever been to was a smaller one here in Charlotte, NC.

Well your mind and ears (and likely budget) will be blown by a full-scale CanJam. They're really fun and a bit overwhelming. Be sure to look up some of us older-timers and we'll help provide some guidance if you're interested. Cheers and see you in a few days

One trick I learned from CanJam Singapore is: on Saturday, find the stuff you REALLY want to listen to, and go back for them on Sunday morning

. Much more quiet, and less of a line, if any at all.
 
Can't wait for this one!
