er...If I'd of noticed
when the 'fest was earlier, I'd arranged my own advanced life support (wife, critical care RN), on behalf of all whose age is of a certain number.
Still tryin to get Mr. Campbell to come along with me, perhaps with a kilt in tow.
rx ... I would think that you'll be left completely impressionless
chris : as you know, infused vodka is woman's drink. Real men prefer good Scotch Whiskey, straight from the 'ole' country. Most whiskey made in North America really isn't whiskey (I used to work for a distiller in the blending room), but vodka, aged with fake whiskey flavour, caramel (burnt sugar), and colouring. It is "aged" in a barrel, but that's about it. And "20 " year whiskey can contain as little as 5% of 20 year old whiskey (not the whole bottle). And aging ceases as soon as it is bottled.
Might as well stick with beer, 'cause that's something us Canuck do as well or better than any else on the planet....

PS: no one has verified what they are bringing so that i can pencil in a loose schedule... some hints but that is all. Chris & Daniel & i will have at least 1 amp (hopefully 2) and quite a few speakers.

I should mention that the door prises are starting to queue up...
Grant Fidelity has donated one of their new tube output DACs, and planet10-hifi will be offering an pair of EL70eN (since these are very rare we may be too lazy to pull them out of the cabs they will be in). Bob will probably have something too. Kevin?

There's still an outside chance of me getting there. Mind you the stars have to align in a way not seen since Desi and Lucy were top of the charts.
I'm sure if there's gun powder involved, I won't be missed. That sounds like a lot more fun than torches and granite.
But wait, Scott's bringing a keg no? Man I have to make it. Kevin Haskins can't be trusted to empty the thing, he drinks like an American.

fingers crossed
Ed guarantees fun to be had by all, and reported on by survivors
well, as long as he can stay seated, he's probably fine, but if he has to navigate around piles of audio gear, or the stair case or driveway in the dark, that could be a different story
"guys, anyone else feel that earthquake?"
actually, that's probably true for all but the seasoned professionals, which is why your example would be sorely missed
in any case, a few
in your honor, sir - in fact, it'll be time to start serious training this weekend
You don't.

Let the fun begin
Hello folks:
I am sitting here right now enjoying one of the beers I was planning on bringing down island for the dooooooo.
Keg no but a nice cross section of fine hand crafted beers for folks to share. I have a nice Serra Nevada pale ale clone that I am particularly fond of. I hope to have a few of those for our American friends to taste. It all depends on how hot it gets up here this week. I get real thirsty in the heat!
I sure hope my shirtless friend Cal can make it. The party never gets going until Cal gets there!
I can bring down my F4 if there is an interest.
