2011 HeadFi Meet Will Be Hosted In...........

[krmathis]

..by the way, why is this thread in the impressions sub-forum?
Isn't this sub-forum more appropriate?  -> Local / Regional Head-Fi Meets, Parties, Get-Togethers

 

[cifani090]

Because i thought this belongs here since it is a international meet?

 

[Region2]

Because this sub-forum should be after the meet has happened.  You know, so you can share your impression/experience of it.  We're not all clairvoyants like yourself, cifani.

I would like to see one in China. Shanghai, Beijing, Shenzhen etc. Though may cost more for the vendor to set up shops there but the potential market exposure will definitely worth the cost.

 

[Yikes]

These's nothing stopping Chinese members from organizing a meet. Anyone have any idea how many members live in China?

1, so far

"I will say that the Carolinas tend to have good big meets and might be a possibility..."
 
Charlotte clearly has the infrastructure to handle this type of event especially with recently hosting about 30,000 people for the 2010 NRA convention in addition to being a finalist for consideration for the next Democratic National Convention. With a large international airport transportation is relatively easy. There are some great attractions in the area for families with children of all ages.
 
Should there ever be any serious consideration for Charlotte, I would be happy to assist those organizing it. That would also all me to give a hiatus from CanFEST for awhile to avoid any competition.

There might not be HD-650s, but the raffles are always extremely generous.  You might get something much more valuable than a HD-650.

Sure!  There's been some talk about one, but the date keeps getting kicked into the future.  And one small catch - I might be in Arizona pretty quick.  I'd still be able to make LA meets, but would need to know a few weeks in advance.

Just bring your parents.  We'll get a few drinks in them and they'll have a great time.

There not drinkers, i think that they think that its a joke which it is not.

You are right. Drinking is not a joke

 
I'd love to have a big european meet as wel, there's a small one now in Berlin (no offence), but it can't be compared to canjam.
Planetickets for me (and I'm just in the country next to it) would cost between 400 en 700€, without any other costs. Going by car would mean an 8 hour drive, and that's for only a 5 hour during event...
 
I think a UK city would have the best chance to organize such an event, and travelling to the uk is reasonably "cheap" (for me).
 
But if canjam 2011 is in NYC, me and the misses just might come over and stay for 2 weeks
