I am in Vancouver
I would love it if there was a Rickenbacker Conference in Seattle. Epecially if it were a full guitar show. We never seem to get things like NAMM up here. Not sure why.

I'd still be interested in helping pull together a Pacific Northwest confluence eg Seattle, not in Minneapolis or anywhere east of Bellevue.

Would there be a restriction on instruments allowed to only Fireglo?thx1955 wrote:I'd still be interested in helping pull together a Pacific Northwest confluence eg Seattle, not in Minneapolis or anywhere east of Bellevue.

I guess this thread better be "re-named" for 2010, since the sands of time are running out on a 2009 event.
Re: 2009 Pacific NorthWest Confluence ??
I wonder if I can get the EMP's support in it. (The EMP is a dedicated-music-instrument-Seattle museum owned by Paul Allen. There were at least half-a-dozen Rickenbackers on display last time I was there.....I'll send an email and see what I can find out.

Re: 2009 Pacific NorthWest Confluence ??
Very cool, Alisha! If you NW'ers can pull this off it will be the best confluence yet.
Re: 2009 Pacific NorthWest Confluence ??
I originally though of approaching Evan who own Bass Northwest to see if we could host the event there !!!

Re: 2009 Pacific NorthWest Confluence ??
That could work too. I've never been to Bass NW before...so I don't know what is available.
Re: 2009 Pacific NorthWest Confluence ??
I'm still up for assisting in anyway I can!
