So Tony, you won't be there? That's practically in your back yard.

Yes it is John,

As timing would have it, Janey is having a surgical procedure on that Friday. We tried to re-schedule but it's a no go.
They actually changed the date on us! We were going to go from Saturday into Sunday.

She will only be off of her feet for two days, but I can't ask her go nor can I leave her at home alone.

It's only about a 1 1/2 hr ride too! I am SO BUMMED OUT ABOUT IT :( . It never seems to fail, something always derails my attempts
to meet the fellow forumites!

ANYONE going to the show is welcome to come down anytime to spend some quality time at the guest house!
I just have to stick close to home from FRI-SUN.

Graham, any update on the possible South Florida leg of your trip? Monday after the show forward, we're cleared to go!

Has anyone been to the Orlando show before? If so, has there been decent Rickenbacker content in the past?

I went once, about 8 years ago. It was huge, and there were several booths able to claim having a few Ricks among their show inventory. I bought a 74 330 MG (21fr!!!!!) and wish I still had it.

There was something there last year that I want to buy this year if it's still there, but that's doubtful.

No, I can't tell you what it is. :D

I was last there in '92. It was a good show. I hope the prices have remained the same?

Thanks Kris,

Sorry I can't make it either.

I'll manage to get to ONE of these things sooner or later!
