Why not schedule it along with the Analogue Heaven mailing list festivities?

a) because it's all analog
b) because there will be even more folks
c) less hassle

There were several AH get togethers last year.  I attended the midwest
one in northeast Indiana, and also the one in NJ for NYC area AHers.
Both had MOTM gear present.  Both were fun and allowed attendees to
check out other gear.  The midwest get together had some other modulars
present and it was good to check out the different modulars.  While I 
can't speak for the people who host the AH get togethers I can't see
why MOTM owners wouldn't be welcome.
