I usually try to add a little more flair to my posts but I've just been buried since last Friday, That's a good thing! so my wife says  But as I type this now I'm late for an appointment.

Blake and I have it on the calendar. It's about a 5 hour drive from here and the northern Indiana weather can be brutal that time of year. But.....we're gonna try for it. We'll take our chances on getting a room closer to the gathering date. I guess that makes us a 'maybe'....

Sounds like there is a chance I may be attending also. Keep your fingers crossed. I have made hotel reservations to be on the positive side. Do we have a conference room or a hospitality room we can use to gather in? Im so excited.

Dammit Dammit Dammit!!!!!!
I am gonna do my utmost to make it, but have to figure out how I can financially squeeze out the fundage for a hotel room and bus ticket. When (if) I can get that figured out, I will be making my reservations. I want to go so bad it is tweaking me out.
I already brainstormed and figured out how to raise funds to get to the Convention in July. I am gonna contact my old boss from Michigan and work a music festival in Bushnell, IL called Cornerstone. I will be working a retail music booth, but should make enough to get to Nashville. Already alerting my bandmates not to book any gigs from July 14-20, as I am committing to another event.

Hey everyone, This sounds like it's going to be a great time, as far as where to hang out, there's a large atrium near the pool with pool tables and if I remember right there's a ping pong table WooooooooHoooooooooo , there is also a lot of room to just sit and chat play cards and DRINK if you want. if anyone has any good group games they would like to bring feel free to do so.
My wife and I have a great game called gestures, it's a lot of fun with a large group, we usually play guys against gals.
As far as other entertainment goes, the bar is called lucky's and they usually pack em in on Fridays and Saturdays.
Davenport also has three or four gambling boats if that's your thing.
I don't think there's going to be an itenary, so if anyone has any ideas, just post them. I think Tina nailed it with

I think we should set aside some time as a group to cuss and discuss ch's. What works and what doesn't, what we and our supporters go through.
Maybe even an imitrex tip demo like they did at the recent Vegas meeting and an o2 demo if anyone has any.
And THEN I'll buy ya'll a beer!
