Members TTcustom Posted January 15, 2010 Members Report Posted January 15, 2010 Why I live in the area so I will be going. Sure looking forward to meeting any of you LW folks. I here that the evening festivities are a lot of fun too. I am fifty years old and I have always lived in freedom; let me end my life free; when I am dead let this be said of me: 'He belonged to no school, to no institution, to no academy, least of all to any régime except the régime of liberty.'

Cobra Steve Posted January 15, 2010 Report Posted January 15, 2010 Gee, your FIRST time, Johanna?? I hope it'll be good for you! Let's hit the Bar 7 for dinner (that's what Bruce calls the Circle 7). It's across the street from the Circle K at THE stoplight. I know Bruce can vouch for their alcoholic content, too. I'm staying this year at Super 8, be there Wed & Thurs. nights. Thursday night there's generally a fun-filled soiree at the courtyard across the street from the Bar 7. Live music, outdoor eats, restaurants, lost of folks. I forget the name of the leather shop there. BRING A JACKET OR SWEATSHIRT. When the sun goes down, it does get cool (unless you've been hanging some Coors Anti-Freeze.). I'll be lookin' for you!

Moderator bruce johnson Posted January 16, 2010 Moderator Report Posted January 16, 2010 Harvey, Johanna, Bobby, Steve, et al, A fine spouse said that four nights in Las Vegas is about right and I agree. We are going to go to Wickenburg after all. What was that old Geritol deal - "My wife, I think I'll keep 'er"? Yeah... Called tonight and got into the Best Western downtown there. They still have some rooms, but are getting close. We will get there sometime Weds afternoon, partake of a T-bone at the Bar 7, and move it on over to the Circle K later on I imagine. Show Thursday and the soiree that night. We'll start towards home sometime Friday I imagine.

Moderator Art Posted February 13, 2010 Moderator Report Posted February 13, 2010 Hi Steve, Are you taking those "special set up" machines with you? Everyone needs to see them, I wouldn't buy a machine any other way. Art Hi everyone, hope all is well. I'm loading up my trailer gettin' ready for Wickenberg.

Steve Just curious if you will bring any post bed machines with you? I'd like to see one (but am not ready to puchase right now).
Members jeeperaz Posted February 19, 2010 Members Report Posted February 19, 2010 Can anyone help with the question I posted earlier in this thread... "Do vendors typically offer better prices at the shows than their normal phone or internet sales?" I live about an hour away from Wickenburg but even so, the dates of this show make it very hard for me to go. If I know the 'hand tool' prices are not discounted below what they always are then I'm not going worry about trying to make it there. Anyone?
