I hadn't been checking the thread over the last few days, so I didn't make arrangements for use of a car tonight (we have more drivers & commitments than cars)... so I probably will not be able to join you.
In an effort to help, I'll mention that I re-checked my notes from our previous get-together, and my comments in post # 89 jive with those notes. In addition, there was a request put out for participants to bring sound dampening/room treatment, if someone has something portable (since the hall has a lot of hard surfaces).
And the only other note(s) is that I'd mentioned that I liked the dedicated area for headphones at our last get-together, but the other systems in the room overpowered any headphone listening. Although we knew that a couple of members have been very active in headphone systems recently, I questioned whether or not the situation might repeat. The popular opinion was that we should give headphone systems another try at our upcoming get-together.
Hope this helps.

Ronu9400, I will be coming in from Carp so if you live between carp and Pierre's place let me know and I can pick you up. I have the same problem as you so I "booked" my car well in advance.
Helpful post Ron.
I can get there for a short time this evening. I hope to be able to help a bit. Busy work week.

Thanks for the offer, Multisync, but I'm not on your route - I'm actually south of Ottawa (Metcalfe).
The other factor I didn't bother mentioning is that I'm working downtown Ottawa & taking a commuter bus home afterwards, so travel time makes for an additional complication.
So have fun without me.

Ron - Take the 86c to my place. Join us for a pizza dinner. Others may join too!
Thanks for the suggestion, Pierre, but I don't think that would work out as you planned. I could get there, but without my car available, I might have to stay until tomorrow morning !
I did re-check with the other drivers w.r.t. the car commitments & confirmed that there isn't much of a "window" for me to use a car tonight, so it looks like I will have to pass.
Maybe that's not all bad... we know that John isn't going to have any fun!

she says I am "not allowed" to have fun, but what happens at Pierre's place stays at Pierre's place
your fates is decided
A Classic example of the few deciding for the many!
When I get back home this evening I'll post some picks of the guys.

Thank you! These two were a lot of fun indeed. And what a sound !
It is surprising that they can be found on the used market. I guess many people are getting rid of their old records. Their loss.

So Pierre has written down all the decisions.
All I can say is everything that makes sense comes from Pierre and John.
The rest is my fault 😛
Pierre played some great tunes. John brought over some awesome Jazz and we listened and talked. Altogether a very enjoyable evening.
