Hey All,
I would like to Open the invite to anyone that lives local, or that will be coming to So. Cal. for the Convention weekend.
About half of the bands involved are going,
and there is a possibility of 2 tours of 25 people.
So lets start with a list of 25, just to be safe,
and I will get a more accurate head count as all the bands
let me know if they are going.
From what Dave Wronski of Slacktone, who works at the Factory has told me, The Factory has had a Multi Million dollar re-tooling, to make sure that specs are up to par.
and I went last year, and it is really an educational day.
We also get to see in the Custom Shop, and they also have a gift shop, where you can buy souvenirs, and some small guitar parts.
If we have time, we might be able to swing by the Fender Museum,
a few block up the street.
Before returning to my house for the BBQ.
So This is early at 9 am,
you either have to meet at my place by 8 am in Anaheim,
and Carpool/Caravan to the tour,
or go directly to the Fender plant, by 8:50 am
So chime in below, and let me know if you wanna go,
and how many in your party. 1st come 1st served.
limit of 25 for right now,
if you do sign up,
send me a e-mail if you need my address for the meet up spot,
for the carpool/Caravan. ( I suggest this, as the parking lot at the Fender Factory is pretty full with employees. and I believe there is no parking on the streets.
Or if you need to go strait to the Factory,
I will give you the address for that.
ok?
Go!

Flying Avanti,
can I get yer real name please?
Important
And for those that want to come to the BBQ at my place,
and to meet at my place for the carpool/Caravan to the Fender Factory
e-mail me, at Bigtikidude@yahoo.com and I will give you my address.
Yes Cameras are OK this for this years tour.
If you want to sign up for this.
Please let me know asap, as Dave Wronski needs to have a head count soon.
Thanks for the offer to bring stuff, to the BBQ
I will cover most of it,
But, if you want to bring something special that you like to eat or drink, that is cool too.
I am asking that each person give 5 dollars to help cover the cost of
the food and drink.
thanks

Of course you can. Tell the local constable I said it was OK. In fact, print this out & hand it to him if he asks you any questions and/or gives you any guff and/or tries to handcuff you.
