Gentlemen:

A few months ago, several of you expressed an interest in attending a Vancouver version of the Sound Quality Summit. Those of you that expressed a sincere interest in attending included (by user names):

bryan
hobbes26 (and a guest?)
Dukk (and a guest?)
dumbest
Merlin
Audio Vault (and a guest?)
islandphile (1 and "a few buds")
mike bisson
defro 13 (6 or more)
MR2NR (and a guest?)
SUX 2BU (was 70% sure he could attend based on family commitments)
Kilowatt
JRace
beamrider
Pioneer Guy (and a guest?)

August 7 is only three weeks and three days from now (somewhat short notice), and I don't want to have anyone left out.

Also, there's an IASCA judges training the following day at Tim's shop. So conceivably, it could be a two-day weekend if you're interested.

I need a definate head count for attendence. If you're not definate, please give a percent likelihood of attending (e.g., from 1% - 99%). The expenses for this trip are extraordinary, and before I go and make non-refundable accomodations I need to know who might come. I need a minimum of 18 to make it a success.

Does the August 7 date work, or shall we see about pushing it back further a few weeks? Suggestions are welcomed and greatly appreciated.

The cost will be $250 USD. I have a DEFINITE SPONSOR for this seminar. There WILL be free equipment for the first several that sign up.

So please, take a moment and evaluate if August 7th works for you, and if it doesn't, please suggest a second choice for date. [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]

Thanx,

Scott

Oh yeah, and the referral program is alive and well. Refer a frined and get a $50 USD credit on your own registration. So, get five to register and sign up and go for free (free $250 USD registration). You could conceivably put a group together and share the referral credit amongst the group.

I'm on holidays on the 7th. If it gets pushed back I'll consider it but I'm away for almost all of September as well.

Shameless plug for Scott- the test CD has been incredibly valuable, the lessons have been utilized and significant improvements made ... I love the organ track, it is accurate and scares passengers now!

John- Sweetness! Thanx mate for your kindness and making the trip to DTW a quick one!

Everyone else- It seems painfully apparent that the August 7 date is not going to work out as planned. Nine or ten attendees are represented above alone as not being able to attend. This is of a possible "best case scenario" 25-27 attendees. I'd like to hear some possible alternatives for dates. How does VERY late September/early October sound, a few weeks before the unified USAC/IASCA Finals? I have not spoken to Tim about what his thoughts are, but perhaps we can at least the foster the discussion for an alternate date.

Late Sept early Oct would work for me...too many things planned for August already.

Thanks Scott
