THE Show Newport 2016-Who's Going?

It's that time of year again for what is becoming my favorite audio each year. The fact that it was moved to a bigger and larger venue last year was even better and the fact that it is but a 20 minute drive from my house makes it even better. As in previous years I have had a meet and greet at my house on one of the evenings and I am planning to do the same this year. In years gone by there has been a full house and if such becomes the case this year I will plan for both Friday and Saturday evenings but for now I would like to use this thread as an RSVP list for those who plan on attending. My advice would be to car pool as people have done in previous years. I live in a gate guarded community and it is quicker when fewer cars come through the gate. This typically a beautiful time of year in Southern California so for those interested I look forward to seeing you all again as well as to meet a few more members of WBF. For those who haven't been to my home before just PM me for address and directions
 
I'm definitely going Sat/Sun - don't know if I will have time to swing by your place, but it would have to be Saturday if so.

It's funny - I hit fewer and fewer rooms each year, but enjoy time with more audiophiles instead!

If I did one evening only it will be Sat. Looking forward to seeing you again. I hope all is well.
 
I will be going all three days.
 
I guess I should be asking everyone if they are planning on coming back to my house on Sat. evening so I can keep a list
 
Unfortunately other commitments will keep me from attending this year. My sentiments echo Keith's, though, and I will be there next year!
 
Flying in Thursday and leaving Monday morning. Should have time for the full effect. Hope to meet some fellow members.

Marty

will you be coming to my house Sat evening?
 
I've had several members reply by PM that they will be coming back to my house on Saturday evening. For those intending to swing by please let me know so that I can get a reasonable head count in order that I can provide sufficient food and refreshments
 
The wife and I will be there all 3 days
 
By all means. I'd love to meet you

PM me for address if you can make it
 
Hi Steve, we'll be down in LA babysitting the grandkids that week. I may be able to get away on Saturday to attend the show and attend your soiree. Larry
 
Larry

I would love to see you again. Please let me know as I will need to put your name in at the gate. BTW, any day works for me otherwise Larry if you're going to be here all next week
 
As an update to everyone going to THE Show and are planning to come back to my house Saturday evening, this is filling up quickly so if you are still interested please let me know so that I can add your names at the gate. There are about 2 so far who are planning on attending

For those attending, lets plan anytime from 7:00 onwards
 
SOME SPECIAL NEWS FOR THOSE ATTENDING

Or if you are still considering coming to my house Saturday night here is some special news

Gary Koh will be once again coming to my house this year and he is bringing a very special guest......none other than Anne Bisson, the singer who recorded a very special album (which I am fortunate to own) Blue Mind

We are hoping that we can encourage Anne to sing along to one or two cuts from her album,

Once again anytime from 6:30 on. I will be serving beer, wine, soft drinks and some light appetizers

Te list has now come close to 20 guests

If anyone needs a ride to and from this would be a good place to post your request
