Woohoo! Great stuff, Ben.

Dale, you're on, mate!

John A - are you suggesting that it was me who led everyone else astray?

Richard, it will be good to see you again. I'm sure there will be a contingent of us to greet you on your arrival!

I guess that was a little vague .

“We are going to California”

That is, my wife and I for the Confluence.

I don't really know too many people on the Forum yet but I'd like to show up and put some names to their respective faces. If there's alcohol involved I might get those mixed up a bit.

For those people who are coming from far and wide, I'm willing to help transport some guitars if you plan on shipping them out ahead of time. I live only about 15 minutes from LAX and about 40 minutes (in traffic) from the SoCal 2007 spot.

Let's just say, Darren, the Aussies have a "reputation"!!!
