Subject: Should I exhibit at NAMM?

I have until Friday to decide if I want to keep my primo spot for the Feb
2002 NAMM show
in Anaheim, CA.
Although fun, non-stop talking/schmozing, bad food, no sleep and packing up
was "worth it"
from the experience point of view, the show cost me $6000 personally. As far
as I can tell, I got
exactly 2 sales as a result. I met 4 or 5 MOTM users (some completely
unexpected!), went to
the AH 'party', bothered Dieter Doepfer, and had dinner with Bob Moog and
Dave Smith (Sequential).
Did I mention this cost me $6000?
So, in order to EXHIBIT, I must have SOMETHING TO EXHIBIT in the booth. I
really don't want to ask
Robert Rich again, I tink in Feb he is on tour anyway in Europe.
I have a nice big wooden case I could take, but that means NO SEM FILTER
UNTIL APRIL if I do.
Why? I'd have to build modules to put in there, and NO, I don't want
everyone donating theirs because
I'd get it lost with my luck.
So, if you have ideas and suggestions, let me know ASAP.
Nothing like enough warning :) I will pay shipping both ways. Dave Fulton
lent me his system as well
last year.
