    Hey Dusty!

    I'll be there. I have a table in the room where you have to have a ticket to get in. Last year I fought like crazy with Chuck S. to get back in the "free" room where I used to be. As it turned out, I had an OK show last year, until Sunday, when I pretty much sold out of all of the instruments I brought with me. Best show I ever had!

    Stop by and say "Hi". I hope to have some of my Red Line Traveler mandolins there, but they are hard to keep in stock at the moment. I should also have a nice selection of our resophonic guitars there, and some other goodies.

    See you there !!!

    Was hoping to go this year but times are tough and it's looking doubtful. I've had a blast there in the past. It's a great time.

    I will be there. Last year was the first time for my wife and I. We absolutely loved it. We camped about 5 or 6 miles away last year and drove over every day. This year we are staying at the Hotel where all the pick'in is.

    What is the name of your band? I really enjoyed the band competition last year.

    I'm there as well. Friday and Saturday and leaving sometime Sunday (before noon) Danny B you are going to have the time of your life. More players than you can shake a stick at! Everywhere you turn there's another player! I'm assuming Steve Smith is going to be there, I purchased a bridge from him last year and installed it while I was there and man did it make a difference! All my friends couldn't believe it was the same mando.

    That's the idea, about the bridge that is. I went to the IBMA for the first time last year and had a blast there! I can't believe it's taken me this long. I also will be visiting Big Joe's table. I went to gruhns while at IBMA which is the first time I'd been back in there in 15 years or so, too long anyway. There are a few other items I'm gonna look into while there I just don't know if I want to pick up any mandolins, I'm pretty happy with mine and if I start messing around picking others, well you just never know.

    I'm going. I'm really looking forward to it. My daughter and her band, Stone County Connection, will be competing in the band competition. They finished 2nd place last year.

    I will be there looking for a banjo player for our band. So if anyone know a really good banjo player who can sing parts let me know. I will be coming in Friday evening and leaving Sunday morning or something like that. I will have my Lebeda Premium Plus and also my BRW with so if anyone wants to jam or get together and try out mandolins let me know.

    We aren't setting up this year, but come by and see us on Music Row at the shop. We have mandolins from Kentucky's to a Summit Artist model F5. We also have about 20 basses and over 100 fiddles in stock.

    Hey Stephen and Danny,

    Yep, I should have a good supply of bridges for mandolins, mandolas, banjos, archtop guitars, and resophonic guitars. Not sure I'll be up for an at-the-show installation, but maybe one of Big Joe's crew could help you out there. His shop isn't too far from the event, you know.

    Be sure to check out my Traveler flat mandolins while you are there. Maybe not the Ultimate Bluegrass Mandolin, but they sure are fun to play! I should have a pretty good selection of hub-capped guitars for you to slide around on too...
