Meets

My wife and daughter will be out of town the weekend of 7/17 - 7/19. I am considering a small meet at the house, sort of like Gene has done. I have bedrooms with beds, one with a air mattress and 3 sleepable couches. I am not sure whether about this but if the interest is there, I might consider it. I have a trial about 10 days later so it may depend on how intense the preparation is for it. I would like to limit the meet to about 10 including room for about 6 in the house. Not expecting any out of towners with CJ just passed and DanJam coming up. You are all welcome but I understand if the usuals are unable to make it.

Dan and Nate coming to you live from Canjam. All is well with the menace and the party is in full swing.

I saw the date over at the other site and have only one question: how much is the per-day parking cost at the Hilton LAX? Cya guys there! Asr, I'm adding the head-casers attending to this first post -- boomana

So, this is the thread to coordinate our "pre meet" activities. John can tell us when the setup activities should be done, and then we can figure out what we're gonna do afterward. Dinner, drinks, music, whatever. I'd prefer to keep it low key, a chance to get to know all you crazy bastards. PM me if you need my cell #, and I'll have my iphone with me there, so I'll be reachable by AIM as well.

So who's going? When are people arriving and leaving? I'm trying to suss out what my best options for flights/dates are. I've got a friend lives in Chicago who I'll be trying to visit which gives a little flex. Is there some kind of masterplan or is everyone just doing their own thing?

Jude announced it over at HF: http://www.head-fi.org/forum/thread/556674/start-making-your-plans-for-2011-canjam-rmaf-rocky-mountain-audio-fest So anyone going to make it? Headphones + speakers + free beer!!! What else do you need?

I'm only going to be at the meet on Saturday, and as proved true in nearly every meet, you only get to really listen to a few things. Things I don't want to miss: The HeadRoom/Sennheiser room Symth demo - I missed it last year by being either too busy or lazy to wait in line Frank Cooter's creations whatever they may be Ironbut's rig - I just loved it in Mayberry New Shure headphones - just curious 909's rig - I've heard L3000 with that amp, curious about the source jp11801's new toys Since I'm not looking to get anything new this year (so I say now), I'm not going to be tempting myself too much. What's on your lists of must hear?

I'll be out at the show as usual, so anybody that wants a free guest pass, hit me up before Friday Feb 9. If anybody would like to come and hang out either before during or after, let's do it!

Who's going? List what you'll be bringing along Just a general discussion about the meet!

I'm not. Just curious if anyone else is. Visited Head-Fi for the first time in 10 years. What a train wreck.

Ive attended two of these and to my ears this is the best of the CanJams for listening experience. I was going to go to the show in China but given the current political climate, I think I'll pass this go round. So London is the next best thing for me. Much quieter show than LA or NY, not as social though. Great beer trip 15 minutes walk (Bermondsey beer mile). Any way any takers? First beer on the mile is on me.

Anyone going to this? Looking for more alcohol and bacon this year

Anyone going this weekend?

@jp11801 started talking about this meet in a different thread about a different meet, but if we're going to make something happen then we need a proper meet thread. This could be an opportunity to get the old Travel Team together again! @shellylh claims to be making the trip and Claire and I are considering going too. Some locals like @bozebuttons and @Kerry -- MOT MOT MOT! -- will be there. Not sure if @Iron_Dreamer or @justin are working the show, and even if he's not promoting ECP Audio, @dsavitsk is not far away. So, who else feels like it is safe to come out and play again?

I just saw Tyll mention this on FB. Remarkably, it looks as if I'll be in the area with my family. My wife will be working and I'll be hanging out with the kids, who probably will make me suffer if I try to take them to a trade show. I'd love to get together for extracurricular activities though. Anyone else planning to be there?

Update: CanLanta 2013 May 4th, 2013 Time: TBA Marriott Century Center http://www.marriott.com/hotels/travel/atlne-atlanta-marriott-century-center-emory-area/ Link for Hotel at discounted rate Original: Hey guys and gals, Some of the Atlanta crew is looking to throw together a shindig in the spring. We usually have a decent turnout locally, and we sometimes partner with a big audio club in the area which gets some of the speaker guys out to play, but this year we're wanting to see if some of you guys would be interested in heading out to check out Atlanta for a few days (with a meet in the middle.) We have a venue that would probably be able to house a CanJam …

I would like to invite everyone to CanLanta 2016! Saturday May 21st at the place we've had the past couple big Atlanta meets, which has been a nice venue. I'll copy from the post on HF, but Tyll is coming back to Atlanta for the first time in a long time, and we're excited to have him back. I hear through the grapevine that there are some premiere d-_-b approved, but not sure it's public knowledge yet, so I'll let that MOT speak up if he's so inclined. John M and the boys in Atlanta have done a lot of work getting this off the ground, and I think it's going to be a nice event. Travel Team, let's make it happen. **BRENT** Canlanta 2016: It’…

So, I have tentative spousal approval to go to the bacchanalian shindig in ft lauderdale in early May. I know a few others are going as well, and a few of you even live down there. So here's a topic about it.

Anyone going to this?

Anyone here stopping by this audio show, I'm thinking about it as it is probably a 2 hourish drive from me. www.capitalaudiofest.com

Any of the east coast crew going?
