Tom, if ya come I will try to hunt you down.

You eluded me last year at Woodstock. John Ostoff came over to me while I was auditioning one of Linda Manzer's guitars and mentioned that you were at his booth and that you were looking for me. I walked over 10 minutes later and you had vanished into the crowd. Rooms at the Best Western are still available and a are quite reasonable. You should come said the voice of temptation....

If you want a chance to meet up with Tim or Mary McKnight we will be at the Artisan Guitar show in Pennsylvania.

We look forward to meeting our AGF friends and McKnight Guitar family there.

If you already own a McKnight guitar t-shirt wear it so we can find you! If you want to buy one when you are there please let me know in advance so I can have your size and choice of red or black available. You can look at our website for prices.

I will be handing out McKnight guitar balsa airplanes and/or McKnight Guitar sunglasses until supplies run out. One or the other for each person, please. We have a couple of other random items we will hand out periodically.

Hope to see you there!

Anybody else decide to come to the show?

It should be a convenient set up in that most people are staying at the Best Western where the show exhibition hall is. The show room rate is also quite reasonable.

Baltimore Area is ~ 1+ hour drive
Pliladelphia, Washington DC and Wilmington areas are ~ 2 hours drive
New York and Pittsburgh are ~ 3 hours drive

Great opportunity to meet artisans and sample their work...

JR gave us permission to print AGF badges. All AGF'rs are invited to stop by our table and pick up your free badge. That way you can spot other forumites at the show! Should be a fun way to meet other AGF'rs.

Hi Jeff,
We already thought it out for you to save you undue stress. We have decided you need to come to the show.

That was easy!

Yes, Martin a mere 45 minutes from home ! I have been planning on going for months and it's almost here. The biggest of the names are coming and I hope it portends for an annual show here in PA.

For those of you AGFers attending this year's Artisan Show I would like to propose an AGF Dinner at the local Texas Roadhouse on Saturday evening. Tentatively we are thinking around 5:30ish (EDT) so that us old folks can get back before dark. The restaurant is just minutes from the Central Hotel.

I will coordinate with the restaurant but will need to know how many of us there will be. Right now it is myself and the McKnight clan (Tim and Mary) but let me hear from you. Send me a PM with your name and AGF handle if you would like to join us. Somehow it just doesn't seem right to require AGF affiliation so I will leave this open all who would like to join us.

I would suggest you stop by the McKnight table and get your AGF badge. That will make it so much easier to strike up the conversations.

I will revisit this thread and keep a running list of those planning to attend the AGF Dinner @ Artisan. If you don't want your real name posted just say so!
