I am sooo excited. I know it's months off but I'm geaked.

I've had a blast at each one and look forward this one. I've met many members (I've met some of you guys many times) that I hope to talk to again real soon.

Are you coming? I know I'll be there.

Very cool! I'll be the one with the big grin, balding head, bewildered look, and going in 4 directions at the same time. Oh wait, that'll account for 1/2 the guys there. Oh well, one of them will be me.

It is so amazing how the fest has grown. Even more amazing is the friends that we all have met. For many of you who have been with us since the first fest, I just want to say thank you for believing in us. For those of you who have never been to a fest, you need to make the commitment to be there.

Grumpy and I have been to CES and RMAF, and I am so proud of what we do here. The friends, the music, the feel of AK fest is so unbelievable. To be able to walk into a room and be welcomed is something that is commonplace at AK fest. To have the opportunity to hang out and talk to the exibitors after the show ends each day, is cool.

Then the live concert Saturday night, WOW !!

What more can I say.....Heck Yah, it's alot of work, but it is so worth all the work.

Just one more thing...Every year I say this, but we need to thank David and Ernie. These 2 have put in more time and effort than many of you can imagine. Even in these hard economic times, Grumpy did not give up, and because of that, and all hard work from Ernie, there is an AK fest 09. Thank you both !

It means that Retro has been on me to make the pilgrimage with him for about the last month. Being "under" employed at the moment, I more or less wrote off the notion of going. He made me the "Godfather" offer from the get-go, and I gave in a week or so ago :D

Generous AK'er and good friend that Retro Stereo is.


I'm in!

I'll be there for sure. I've got one very important piece of business to take care of (and it shouldn't take more than a minute), then rest, relaxation, and tunes.:music:

Now that might be a tad bit of a stretch, but thanks :D
