So Cal 2008

What time do I need to be there to help haul stuff? I was planning on leaving home around 6-630 Sat morning, which means I would be there 8-830 for sure, and I can always leave earlier. As of now, I am not staying the night, but may if I can sell the case.

Har! I see irony in that sign ... "The Prideful" would include those who think of themselves as holier-than-thou, namely the sign holder!

Also, the inclusion of "Mouthy Women" could be interpreted as an indication that the sign holder has some unresolved issues with mommy ...

I'll bet I could have sold him an aluminum foil hat to keep the aliens from readin his thoughts.

Good question! Let us know, eh?

My pickup shrunk, lost two liters, two cylinders, two back wheels and two doors, but I still have a long bed!!! Oh, and the logo changed from an oval to a bowtie!!

Wheww! What a week....I just not 30 minutes ago booked our flight and hotel room. I think I got the very last room at the Holiday Inn.
However to save money we will be arriving at the Long Beach Municipal Airport on Wednesday around 2:30-3:00pm.
Is there anyone that can pick Tammy and I up from the airport and carry our tired butts to the Holiday inn? I think it's a 30-40 minute drive.
Graham....Howard? I think Graham owes me a ride.....

I'll be bringing some spare stands. I'll be bringing two five slot stands, a seven slot stand, and a double decker stand that holds two guitars. I'll be bringing five guitars, so I'll have 14 spare slots for those who need them.

Sounds good. So what's the deal if I bring along a couple non-Ricks? Will I be kicked out and/or shunned for life?

Speaking of non-Ricks, Graham and I were talking about Vox Teardrop hollowbody 12s yesterday, so I'm going to bring my Trans Cherry Red example, complete with its original whammy bar. It's an odd and unusual enough guitar that it merits an appearance, I think. I hope no one gets too distraught over the thought of a 12 string with a whammy bar on it.

Graham, Joey??? Anyone out there? If you aren't to busy it sure would be nice to have a lift to the hotel.. We could buy the driver a post-arrival refreshment.. Graham (gingerale), And do you have any drahamine for the fishing trip?

[rickenbrother]

Tammy, I just spoke to Steve. If it's not convenient for anyone else to pick you up, I will. You guys will just have to wait a bit for me since you guys are getting in sooner than I can leave work. Small chance I get out early, we're really busy.

[paologregorio]

Graham's should be back by now; we met for lunch up in Long Beach.

If you're unable to contact Joey or Graham, let me know. Are you at John Wayne? I think I could pick you up. I'll PM you with my number.

[mrs_brown]

Arriving at Long Beach.. Wed between around 2:30 ish.. I am so excited I cannot wait!

[rickenbrother]

Paul A, I just PMed you.

Sounds good, I'd love to check that out.

Steve - Tammy........I can pick you up no problem at all. Have a few drinks on the plane and make it an "interesting" ride back...........bring the sick bags with you!!

[mrs_brown]

Thanks Graham.. looking forward to it. The first flight I had looked at had a nice layover in Vegas.. the one we booked has us in Salt Lake City Utah.. I don't think they are to big on drinking there..maybe I am wrong.. but when I hit the ground.. that is a whole new ball game.

Graham, don't forget to pick me up before you go like we agreed. I'm still waiting with my case by my front gate.
