I'm definitely coming but gimma a few weeks to a month to make a deposit! I'm gonna bring my Rickenbacker and pedalboard this time!
I'll probably be driving Tbirdbassist and beyondhairy if they want to meet up before hand and drive in my car. I'll have room for maybe one more guy. That is if Tbird and hairy don't bring too much gear my trunk can't handle! XD
...I could always borrow my dad's jeep as well...
ALSO: Should i bring my GK2001RB and Avatar 410? I can probably fit everything in my dad's jeep. I'm just making sure we have plenty of amps there. We got lucky Tbird lugged two of his gigantic peavey amps at the last NY GTG. We wouldn't have had a little pedal show :P

If this were a "conventional" gtg at someone's house, it would be a 100% no brainer to bring your amp. There are never too many amps at a GTG. |

I personally really enjoy getting to know the people attending and have made many great friendships with other TBers 
Some of the really cool stuff: - You'll see some beautiful basses
- You'll get a chance to hear some great amps
- A perfect opportunity to talk about effects
- Lot's of cool accessories like cases, stands, cables that you nomally wouldn't ever see in stores
- Always some very good food
For anyone that is worried about their chops not being 100% or for anyone that is afraid that they'll have to perform, the GTG's are not designed to be a playing showcase. There are all kinds of skill levels at these events, from beginners to long time serious pros. Really, truely, no one cares about who has the best chops or who is still early in the learning curve. It's much more about the fellowship ....
Oh, BTW, most GTG's are kinda loud events ..... 
If you're on the fence, don't hesitate to make the commitment for this special GTG. It's not often we get a chance to meet with this wide a range of TBers ...... |

EDIT Here's the PayPal email... Filakovsky@optonline.net
