Thanks for those who offered to tip for the pizza, there will be no need for that at all, even if it was going to be pizza, I would have made sure to feed all my guests with out any offer for help in the cost.

Ray you are such an upstanding guy. I will be honored to be your guest

Wait a second... Jude is coming!?!?

best...meet...ever

EDIT: Be sure to thank your Wife for all her hard work Ray... I will try to do so myself at the meet, but she might be hiding at that point. [I know mine would]

If there is anyone in the vicinity of the Drake Hotel that has room in there car send me a pm and, if possible, a cell number. The train line that goes to Skokie doesn't run on Saturday. Thanks.

Billy and I spent a little time with Ray tonight and brought by some of the tables . Things are looking awesome so far ladies and gents. Ray has the place looking great and the "quiet room" should work out as well. Essentially we'll be using Ray's lower apartment for headphone listening and Ray is keeping the speaker rig upstairs. Anyone wishing to sample that rig will go upstairs to do so. We're isolated from Ray's insane listening levels by an additional floor,so hopefully our quiet space will remain so.

Headroom is doing things up nicely and along with the gear they sent,they included a very useful gift for all the meet attendees. Thanks again Headroom.

I got bad news for anybody arriving tomorrow. You'll most certainly be put to work. I'm sure set-up can be fun but we have much to do and I could use the help.

I'll see some of you later today and perhaps we'll get the impressions thread going a day early since a lot of the gear will be set-up later tonight.

BTW,it's a tradition around here that Eagle Driver start the Chicago meet impressions threads ,so get going Randall.

i'll try to be there late evening...

Im gonna drive in, attend the meet and drive out...

If anyone can show me a corner to crash and a shower in the morning (29th) to freshen up - it will be great...

I am coming with $0.00 because I am dead broke...fun stuff

LOL

Billy - we have to tackle fred man...You go for the legs and i'll stand back and watch

 

[emelius]

anyone bringin' any qualia related gear?...i've yet to hear 'em...

my ride confused the date of the meet & so now i'm apparently takin' the 4am bus from Indy to Chicago to Skokie

...if all goes well i should arrive in Skokie 'round 9:30am local time & then i'll probably take a cab the rest of the way...can hardly wait

...

Gs and good ole fashion headfi snow ball fight is in need, lol j/k.

guys this is one nicely layed out place for a meet! the downstairs is cool and yes Ray being himself did it all.
I love the idea of having the upstairs open up to, if you get overloaded by headphone gear then go for the speaker rig..hehe

 

[cpw]

This is sick. It's quarter to 5 annd I'm up, dressed and waiting for a cab to go to the airport on the way to Chicago.
Can't wait to meet you all,
Lewis (CPW)

 

[philodox]

Lol... wow, you guys know the meet it tomorrow right?

Anyways I am at work now and will be leaving from here at 5pm to catch the 6:30 bus to Windsor. Then tomorrow morning, The_Mac and I are joining up with the Detroit crew and driving to Chicago. Then the reverse to get home [with an extra hour or so tacked on to get from TO to Hamilton].

Talk about road trip. I'm already tired.

According to the forecast it's suppose to be 33 degrees and snowing on Saturday in Chicago. That's what the little button on my Firefox browser shows me anyway.
