WHO ALL is going to St.Louis?

Ray Montee (RIP) · Post by **Ray Montee (RIP)** » 8 Jun 2002 8:35 pm

Perhaps I've missed a post elsewhere....but if not, is there a roster of which Forumites are planning on attending the St.Louis Convention? Just curious if I will know anyone when I get there.

Ray,why do you keep asking? I have told you for 24 years in a row that I was going. Have I lied to you yet?

Hope to see you amoung many other Forum members there.

The unofficial gathering point for Forum members for the last few years has been at the Carter Steel Guitar booth. In recent John and Ann Fabian have furnished an add on sticker for application to your convention badge so that Forum members can recognize each other. Have seen nothing at this time that says they will continue to do it,but my guess is that they will.In the past they have also taken a group picture of Forum members and posted it on the Forum.[This message was edited by louie hallford on 09 June 2002 at 02:57 PM.]
