Oregon meet location!

[Budgie]

Anyone out there?

I was about to say the same! I really want to do this, but since I don't live in Eugene (the decided upon location) I can't do much about getting us a place there.

let's have this meet!

I guess we're at a "maybe" with Bradfords. Any news on that front?

 

[Neruda]

I could go Back to bradford's next week and chat with the owner again, provided we had an agreed-upon date. Is everyone down with the first weekend of August? I'd also like to make sure we know exactly how many people are going to show up.

by the way, sorry I've been incommunicado for a little while, but I no longer have internet at my house so I haven't been surfing as much. I'd still like to make this happen though!

 

[mahkook]

First weekend in August is great by me!

 

[james__bean]

First weekend of August is fine by me...

First weekend in August is great.

If any of you are interested in coming to Seattle in August, be sure to cast your votes on the Seattle/Eastside mini-meet poll.

So where are we with the Portland/Eugene meet? Did anyone go talk to Bradfords? Are we throwing the idea out?

you guys should come up to ours in Washington State. ...its gonna rock ...gear you wouldnt normally hear will be there, bring yourselves itll be fun, we can combine forces here for a nice supermeet, who knows we might even end up becoming SuperFriends even.

Neruda hasn't posted in three weeks. So I'm assuming that he hasn't talked to Bradfords. IMO, we should just combine meets with the Washington guys. They seem to be more organized than we are. Our dates were only a week apart as it is.

I guess we should try to figure out the date now and make sure that it works for him; I think he wants to make sure that this doesn't interfere with his business hours.

Ya its just so hard to understand why an audio shop would be reluctent to have members from the web's most popular site have a meet in his store. heck there would probaly set a record for Bradfords as having the most audiophiles at one time in the store. Now Bradfords is no small store front its at least as large as Expearence Audio where we had our Last WA Meet i went to at. http://www.experienceaudio.com/
