Ok guys.

I have been a little quiet - first of all to see where we can set up the first few workshops, but also because I have been 'fighting' to narrow down the radius which many have complained about ... and did! Clinics will now be done within a 50 Miles radius from a dealer. That way, we are not in direct competition with any dealers within the selected areas.

It might require some 're-thinking' on our part, but locations should now be 50 miles away from a dealer who carries the above mentioned products. With this said however, any dealer (like Frank above) can invite/welcome us to come to their store and do the demonstrations too. Dates should be up by the end of the month so hopefully we start in October - this should give people ample time to start planning.

Again, thanks for your input.

AJ

PS: If there are distinguishable dates we should NOT be looking at, please let us know!

I know my area is far to small and remote to visit, but keep us posted if you make it to the south...

To be honest, I don't think you will have the slightest problem finding tons of major areas where the local dealers don't keep the TOTL in stock. Finding the dealers is easy. Finding them with any TOTL in stock is bloody near impossible

But, just to be sure I understand you right... The big 4 (KoKeR&Y) have given you the go-ahead to show and sell arrangers in another dealer's area IF the local area dealer doesn't actually have one of the TOTL's in stock?

That's pretty cool (and it might get some local dealers off their fat behinds, too)...

Shucks,

This is a weekday event, and I would have to take a vacation day from work - 1 week before a 1 week vacation cruise to Halifax, NS!

Darn it, I wish I was retired like the rest of you folks, but I won't be able to make it during the week. Saturday or Sunday day no problem. And I'm only 2 hrs away!!!

Grrrrrrr!!!!

I have a Yamaha Tyros 3 coming in from Germany that arrived US today (Monday) and is clearing customs. All going well, I should have this too for the show. Also bringing the new Roland Fantom G - for sound comparison ... etc.

Cool! A Tyros3 no less.

You guys on the East Coast have ALL the fun!

>> I DO expect an honest opinion on the T3 and every other Board though guys! If the drums stink on the T3 don't mince your words. We're men, we can take the heat. And Yammie won't get upset with you if you dis one of their keyboards either. They're just keyboards... Even if you've owned nothing but Yammies for the last 30 years, please try to give an unbiased take on each of the Boards present at the arranger fiesta. Por Favor!! I'm counting on ya' Stephen, Tony, JCkeeys, and whoever else is privileged to make it there.

Best,
Mike

PS: Oh, and don't forget the pics and video.

hmmm... the fiesta has been over for two hours now and so far not a single peep from anybody that was there. Don't any of you bring your Wi-Fi laptops with you?? You know, the ones with the AT&T laptop connect card so you can access the internet from anywhere at any hour of the day? If nobody has the AT&T connect card is there possibly a McDonald's or Starbucks around the corner somewhere close with free Wi-Fi access? I realize most arranger players on the East Coast are on the backside of 50 + but c'mon!! - don't be such party poopers okay? Do it for the Gipper? Give it the ole' college try and please post something TODAY about the fiesta! Is that too much to ask?? Have a cup of coffee if need be (64 oz. may be sufficient) - but somebody, ANYBODY give us your input!!!!!!!!!!!! Not tomorrow, not next week, not next year, but TODAY!

>> Well.., if that doesn't entice them nothing will..

Best,
Mike

PS: Was the T3 that much of a let down that everybody has already given up and gone home?? >> Unless the fiesta was extended beyond the hours listed and everybody is still wailing away on the T3, Audya, Pa2XPRO, Fantom G, etc. as we speak, which is now as I write this 8:19 EDT.
