I know you will do that J. Kinnaird proud. He was going to be there, but had a conflict that he had forgotten about. I am sure you will represent well. If we do this again next year, he wants in!

Thanks. I actually live in Driftwood which is a little closer at least as the crow flies. I do know where it is. We usually go to S.A via 281.

We are off of 281 and 306. I hope you can make it just shoot me an email if you're interested. Heck, we are almost Neighbors after all.

Ok, do I come out early and get in trouble at Austin Guitar House? This should be an amazing event, and it will be a treat to meet so many of the AGF crew that have only been screen names and guitar posts.

Thank you all who have reached out and reserved your spots. I would be remiss if I did not say we are about 1/3 full at this point already, so if interested reach out to me. Still lots of time, but I have a feeling as we get closer and the luthiers start posting the cool builds they have planned for this, we will fill up even more quickly. I have been told about some of the builds and I am really excited. Think BRW and Euro for one, Coco with Adi on another...just sayin.
I was just reminded by one confirmed attendee about the Friday afternoon Collings factory tours in Austin that are offered. That would be a really cool start to the weekend...I copied this from their website: Tours take place each Friday at 3:30pm and tour sizes are limited so reservations are required. Because our tours often fill up about a week in advance, we recommend calling the shop at 512-288-7776 to reserve your space as early as possible. If I did not have so much in the works right now with everything else I would try to set up a special B.I.G. tour, but I think for this first year, folks will have to be on their own for this, but what a great chance to do this if you are coming in from out of town!!! Think about it.

Dang Tom - why did you wait until moving to TX before doing this!?? I suppose we have Woodstock, but this sounds even better :-)
My parents lived in New Braunfels in their later years ... it's a beautiful area, especially at that time of year! Hope there will be lots of pictures and perhaps some videos so we can get a small virtual taste anyway ... John

The Colling tour sounds great! I've been looking at one of their electric models, a 290, but there are none local to play. It would be great if they also have a "petting zoo" where people can sample guitars, much like at the Martin factory. Do you know if this location makes both electric and acoustic guitars?
