Mike: Sorry, but I didn't take a camera. It was great to see Pete, RC, and a certain mysterious lurker and his lovely wife. Unfortunately, DC took Graham to San Antonio for a gig, so I missed seeing both of them. It was weird being the only righty in a group of lefties. The highlight of the day was look on Pete's face as he attempted to decipher the menu offerings at a Tex-Mex restaurant. His tortured expression practically screamed, "What in bloody hell is a chimichanga?" Thanks for lunch, Pete. Next time I'm taking you guys somewhere special. Plan on it!

Randy, it was good meeting you. It seemed that every time Peter asked what is a ________, the waiter said, "it's a tortilla with....."

Good to see the Brits there. Hope you guys are behaving yourselves!

Had a great time at the show. Swapped my 325V63 for a new 360/12MG. He was happy, I was happy. Just got done doing a set-up on it and it plays really nice. New strings will go on later this week as the originals were pretty bad already even though the guitar looked unplayed. Lots of guitars and women I couldn't afford! Mike

DC & two of our British forumites.

Peter trying out my 360 MG and no, it wasn't for sale.

The poor guy is probably thinking, "Will there be room for me, once I put these last two cases in?"

One dealer's inventory at the show:

I was beginning to think there were no new Ricks at the show as I started my tour at the wrong end of the building. Two dealers had many new models on display at pretty good prices. I picked up a 360/12MG to go with my '86 620/12MGBT. Here is a shot of my two 12's. Mike

Nice, Mike. Yeah, most of the Ricks on exhibition were on the north side of the center. Just wish there had been more.

This white 360 WB looked tempting.

Mike & Stan, if I had been thinking clearly, I would have e-mail you my cell number so we could have hooked up. Anyways, I'm in Plano through Friday.

There was also a 366 to gander, but...

Sorry, I missed you, R.C., but I missed everyone else as well.

That white 360 looks cooool....
