Also, i don't have a car, so I don't know how i'd get there.  But i do have a bunch of 51x stuff finished!  and received Igor's parts today that were missing for the 2 F76s i'm building.  i'll probably finish those up this week.  And maybe, if Ruckus starts sending out kits for his SB4001, that'll be ready too!  but not likely.  he hasn't updated his thread in a while. 

Anyone traveling from Jersey/Bronx/Manhattan, i'm near the triboro bridge if you're heading out to Long Island for this gathering

I dunno if you're close to the H train (18) you can take that to Woodside, im literally 4 blocks from the LIRR off the Westbury stop.

 

[mulletchuck]

i have no means of transporting my gear, unfortunately.  and if I did, i definitely wouldn't want to take it on the subway to LIRR 

 

[seavote]

sat eve, cool with me. what time do you have in mind? 8) 8) 8)

 

[sr1200]

Chuck, if you cant bring gear this go around its ok, you can still head out and BS with everyone, have a drink or two.
As far as times go, around 7 I guess.  Should give everyone time to get their daily deeds done before nerding it up. 

Anyone reading this thats been hiding in the shadows that may want to come, speak up, and if you're coming from the other side of the bridge, see if grabbin MOOLAY is an option.

sent some text messages to Guavatone and Mushy, as they were there for the last one we did.  Spneca is over in Long Island City, i sent 'em a PM as well to check this thread.

Horribly anti climactic! There's the address, the directions (from various places/modes of transport) and a map.

Click the contact us link, theres a phone number at the top if you need help.
As far as refreshments and stuff, if anyone has preferences, let me know, I'll hit up the store tonight.  (hopefully someone is a decent musician that can perform for us to try out some of this gear! )

 

[mulletchuck]

if anyone is driving from the west and can scoop me up, i can bring my sax AND my gear   finished an F76 last night.

 

[sr1200]

I should let it be known that out of all the junk i have in my studio, i DO NOT have a lunchbox of any sort yet (thats on my list for next year).

 

[mulletchuck]

[sr1200]

EDIT: Im a little Peeved that my faceplate for my 4-312 isnt getting here till monday.  We can frankenstein it if anyone wants to try to hear the difference between the 918 and 2520 DOAs.

 

[sr1200]
