I'm very tempted. But Memphis!?!? Ugh. Couldn't it have been somewhere else. Oh well. I may have to look past the location and just go.

I've just never been a big fan of Memphis. Your got the tourist things going on but other than that it's not a very appealing place. Of the large cities in TN it's definitely the roughest. I guess the whole blues thing makes it a draw for a guitar show but I would have just chosen a nicer city.

Just don't get lost after dark and you will be fine :/

I will see you there Bob, table reserved and deposit paid. I am looking forward to be displaying at this new show.

I just found out all the seminars are full so Bob Singer is planning on adding more. 60 builders from around the country will be attending. Not a lot of builder slots left.

Just don't get lost after dark and you will be fine :/ I often find that Americans laugh when I say I loved Memphis! (Huge Elvis fan and had my first blues bar experiences there!) I'd love to go. One day I'm going to get to back to the states, and when I do I'm going to make it a guitar pilgrimage and visit as many events as possible!
