WHY DON'T WE ALL GO TO OUR CALENDARS AND
MARK THEM.
YOU WILL NOT WANT TO MISS THIS.

PROCRASTINATION IS AN ADDICTION. THE MORE YOU DO IT THE MORE YOU WANT TO DO IT. AND THE MORE YOU DO IT THE WORSE IT GETS. GOT THE PICTURE.

THE CONVENTIONS ARE GETTING BETTER AND BETTER.

Jack,

You are going to fly back from Hawaii for Joliet? We are honored!

I am really envious of you moving to Hawaii for an entire year. You will really be able to settle in and experience it with a relaxed headset. Much better than trying to hurry-up-and-relax during a 10 day Hawaiian vacation.

Don, I am a terrible procrastinator too. That's why I'm making a list of all the things I want to accomplish this year.

Gerald, this is a little off topic, but will there be an area where people have guitars for sale?

John,

Around the perimeter of the convention room are tables set up with items for sale. CD's, LP's, T-shirts, hand made leis, instruments, amplifiers etc.

At Joliet 2005 I saw a vintage matching Oahu MOTS amplifier and steel, a vintage Oahu tweed amp, a double neck Rickenbacker console, a magnatone/valco steel, a Fender volume pedal etc.

Go out to the HSGA website and look at the old convention pictures you'll see what I'm talking about.

A RESPONSE TO BILL CRELLAR.

Bill, don't you think it's warmer in Joliet than up where you are.

You have to go south young man.

Aloha,
Don

Yes Don, it is probably 2 degrees warmer in Joliet, but I would rather travel with the air condition on than the heater!!!
It just seems that Hawaiian music goes with warm weather, like Winchester Ind.
