There are some good sized auditoriums there that could hold a lot of gear and people. (At Schmitt)

Hey from Madison way... I like Dave's for a couple reasons. Yes, he's got lots of cool stuff to oogle and none of it is for sale (so you don't have to worry about refinancing your house) and the tuck n' roll Kustom amp display is unique to say the least. It is also a couple of hours closer to me. I could actually make that trip. I'd bring my Clevinger EUB, Kubicki, and my Lakland USA Deluxe Scheff fretless. I had to go to Lakland/Chicago to get my hands on a USA model.
I agree that Dave's is a very cool spot! Imagine a GC without the noise and clutter.emblymouse said:
I would also imagine that they'd be very open to us having our GTG there. EVery time I've been there the staff was very cool and laid back -- almost TOO laid back.

I know of an old ballroom in Rochester...
It's pretty big, and can be rented out cheap... $100 IIRC. Just another option, I guess.

I could do Dave's in Lacrosse. I haven't been there but have pretty good connections to long time employees there through a good friend of mine.
I agree, PM anyone you know who hasn't responded to this. I never check this forum, so I could see how you could miss this.
We've got a couple thumbs up for Dave's in LaCrosse. mrpacker, you're the closest thing to an in there, could you check them out via your friends? Maybe they'd welcome a post Xmas event?mrpackerguy said:
Dave of Dave's Guitar Shop in LaCrossee "would be honored" to host our group. We just need to nail down a date and time and let him know how many.
I'll propose January 13th, a Saturday from 11-3.
What say you? If anyone could line up a clinician, that'd be great.

Dave's Guitar Shop in LaCrosse is a go and Dave would be "honored" to host us.

Sounds good. How about an address, and some directions from a freeway landmark spot or something like that. I'm about 4 hours away.
You got me. I'm in Madison and have never been to Dave's. I assume you can do a mapquest search.
I think I would like to come to that! LaCrosse is only 4 hours from me.
DETAILS and stuffffffff!!!

OK, well Lacrosse is under 3 hours from the Cities, so I think that'd be ok for most people.
Anyone have an opinion on the date?
Anyone know a clinician or two who could come?
Reply if you're sure you can make it, too, so we can get a number.

I like the sounds of that...only 2-1/2 hours from the Twin Cities. Never been to Dave's, heard it's great.
Keep us informed!
