  • Get well Bill, see you at the next one!

  • Sorry to hear Bill. Get well soon.

  • I should be getting there just after lunch. Lots of stuff to load up after I see my kids off to school. Looking forward to seeing everyone and hearing some great projects. Less than 48 hours to go...

  • Get well Bill, and thanks for not being an inconsiderate asshole and bringing the virus to Iowa.

    Bryan, are you still bringing your TT and vinyl? If yes, I'll blow the dust off my tube amp tonight and make sure it's ready.

    I dusted it off and fired it up. Still sounds great. Are you still bringing your turn table and records? I don't want to lug this beast (48.5 lbs) there for nothing.

  • I’ll be starting out on my treck tomorrow a couple of hrs before sunrise - a younger me would do it in a day - but… see you Friday

  • I can bring a ncore amp as backup/test piece, it has only balanced inputs.

  • It looks like the old Dual TT I planned to bring has developed some issues. It's not tracking right past the first few tracks, so it likely needs a clean & lube.

  • Hope you feel better Bill. We'll all miss you. I'll take a bunch of pictures in your absence.

  • Mankato bound today, then Ankeny bound tomorrow. Gonna load up here in a little while - seeya soon!

    Sorry Bill, feel better soon!

  • Get well soon Bill, you will be missed.

    Keep an open mind, but don't let your brain fall out.

    Yes....bringing a Technics SL1200 Mk2 and some shitty old records. If anyone has some of that new fangled heavy-weight vinyl, I’d love to hear it.

    Did you want me to bring my Taylor Swift collection?

    Nice packing job. Looks like none of your speakers will meet the same fate that my MTM's did in that Chicago construction zone.

  • Sorry honey - there's no room for your suitcase.

  • 7hrs down, a mere 5 more in the am…
    Came thru Wyoming- 80 mph speed limit and the semi’s are doing 80

  • Wyoming was pretty with all those cool rock formations. Nebraska on the other hand...

  • Do you guy's mean that 80mph isn't acceptable EVERYWHERE?

    95 getting close to the MX border.
    Driving 9 hours and still being in TX is annoying.
