Wife's travel plan changed and I can go!

But I have to work Friday and can't get there until 8PM.

I think I got the last seat on Frontier flying out of DC.

I read that the Bar at Marriott is the place to be Friday evening. Would I still catch you guys if I come down after 9?

I am looking forward to meeting a bunch of you in person.

Rim, the Bar may close at 12pm, but you'll find AC members crowding the place until 2-3am.

My plane is supposed to come in around 7. My wife will already be in Denver (for work) and we're planning to show up to the Marriott bar after she picks me up from the airport. I look forward to meeting everyone!

The scary thing is I think you might be right

I'm looking forward to seeing AC friends I met there last year, and meeting new ones. I'll be assisting TweekGeek (Mike) and Modwright (Dan) in their rooms, but I assume we'll all meet at the Marriott bar on Fri night again? 8pm? Earlier?

That sounds right to me. And just how is it that Tom is sitting next to Jerry???

We should tell the Marriott to set up some extra tables and chairs as space is very much at a premium though they should know better by now.

Ted,

The show closes at 6:00PM on Friday and folks seem to start drifting in about then, sometimes earlier.

Wanted to go to this based on all the good vibe. I wanted to man a booth. Made special DIY kits at a lower price for attendees to take home. Knew I would recognize a bunch of you from pictures. Alas, the hurricane has put me behind the 8 ball and I've had to cancel. I live on the outskirts of Houston. Oh well, wish you a ton of fun! All the best. Next year, then.

My wife, Vera, and I are looking forward to RMAF and to meeting everyone. I suspect Vera will be interested to learn if any of the other wives will be interested in shopping or other activities in Denver.

Time is drawing near!

Two years ago I went for the first time, and had a good time seeing the demos and learning a lot about the hobby. But I didn't know anybody, so I hung out in the room. Finally bumped into one friend on Sunday.

During the year that followed I met so many virtual friends on AC that when I went to the bar on Friday night of last year's show I knew lots of people, who introduced me to many more. Getting to know audiophiles in person from all over the country has made a huge difference in my enjoyment of the hobby. So, like Ted, I'm looking forward to meeting new friends (like Ted

) and catching up with those I met last year.

The exhibitor list seems bigger and better than ever.

Man, I am sooooo bummed out that I won't be there this year.

Have a great time guys and I'll see you in 2009.

George

Rob S. · « **Reply #98 on:** 25 Sep 2008, 02:29 am »

This is my first one also. I read AC almost daily and enjoy it immensely. I look forward to hearing lots of gear, since what I've heard is limited and I'm still a beginner in this hobby. Can't wait to meet some of you seasoned veterans of HIFI, hope to learn a lot. Of course I owe the lonewolfe a few beers.

Anyone up for a Mtn or Road bike ride Thursday afternoon? My flight should be in Denver around 1pm and we would have several hrs to ride.

Rob,

My brother Russ lives in Denver and is an avid mountain and distance rider. Though he probably wouldn't be able to get away from work, I'm sure he'd be more than happy to suggest some routes for you if you don't hear back from any locals! PM me your e-mail and I'll hook the two of you up.
