You are looking for Georgetown Center, a group of buildings between Corson Avenue S and S Fidalgo St. Corson Avenue S is a one-way street, so the best approach to Front Panel Express from I-5 northbound or southbound is Exit 162.

From 509 northbound take the Michigan St / I-5 exit. Bear RIGHT (East) onto S Michigan St. Turn LEFT (North) onto 6th Ave S. Turn RIGHT (East) onto S Fidalgo St and follow it to its end at Georgetown Center. You are at Front Panel Express.
From
4
4th Avenue S southbound, Turn LEFT (East) onto S Fidalgo St and follow it to its end at Georgetown Center. You are at Front Panel Express.

From S Lucile St westbound toward the underpass at I-5, turn RIGHT (North) onto Airport Way S, then LEFT (West) onto S Lucile St. Turn LEFT (South) onto 6th Ave S. Turn LEFT (East) onto S Fidalgo St and follow it to its end at Georgetown Center. You are at Front Panel Express.

Very cool, I think I think I will be able to make it. I am going to be out of town on buisness getting back friday night. Dont have a clue what I will have for gear.

Nice!  I don't foresee any problems making it, especially with the advance notice.  I should be able to volunteer for whatever you need, and I work out of the Columbia Tower so I can swing by there after work on Friday to help with setup.  I'll PM ya Poppa.

Updated 1st post. Check out the raffle stuff.

Very nice.  Being a few hours away I probably can't do any volunteering aside from post-meet cleanup, I can certainly bring up some goods from Costco if we're short anything in regards to munchies.

Hey guys, this may be just the meet to bring your friends? You know the ones... The ones that enjoy your gear but not on Head-fi yet. I put the meet on my signature. Would be way cool for the attendee's to do the same to spread the word.
 
Aug 3, 2010 at 12:47 PM Post #13 of 241
I think it goes without saying, but I will be there!  The raffle from us (Front Panel Express) will be a highly modified/specialized Morgan Jones Mini headphone amp.
 
Aug 5, 2010 at 4:10 AM Post #15 of 241
Yeah, I have been sending a few PM's out, some Emails, and a few calls to get the word out. Will See Phil LaRocco this weekend. Looking forward to it.
