I think the guitar giveaway is kind of like a Christmas Bonus. Never count on it, just be thankful if you get it.

While on the subject of TourDay:

Is there anyone else who's driving up/out that might be able to bring a goodly-sized beer cooler to be used as this year's Official OFC "Bar"??

I've got the big, stainless-steel Coleman that we've used the past couple years, but it may have to stay home this trip . . .

The Cruiser only has "so much" room, and with myself, Jeanette, Templeman, luggage, and a veritable plethora of guitars, (mine, Temp's cwk2's) I'm gonna be a bit pressed for space . . .

If anyone can help out, please lemme know.
It'l be GREATLY appreciated . . .

WorstCaseScenario:
We find the hotel laundry room and fill up one of the washers w/ice . . .

Though, I bet Schroeder will empty the contents prior to our arrival.

I've got an old steel sided Coleman that you can count on, Cliff. No idea what the actual size is but I know when it's full it's a two man job to move it. And when it's empty, it's usually cryin' time.

Thanks, Guys!!

I let you two work it out amongst yourselves . . .

Or, . . bring 'em BOTH!
We'll use one for beer, the other for replacement livers awaiting transplant . . . .

Al,
The Auditor in me wants to compare a list of those you have with a list of those that have gone before and those that are squawking about going.

Can you give us a number?

Is it mostly Fence-Sitters?

Here goes:
First of all I would love to attend the tour and meet all of you and jam, etc... As a matter of fact I am terribly jealous of all who will be there. However, circumstances will not allow me to attend.
Now, if you want to call me a pussy, suffice it to say I am a grown man, have raised a family, suvived open heart surgery,... well that's all my private life I'll go into now.
I have contributed to this fan club (I am listed on the site as a contributer), I've just bought a very sweet 12-str. from Al. Call me whatever you want but please don't compare my name in the fan club database to a factory tour signup sheet and use that information to deem if I am worthy of being a member or just being a pussy. Hasn't King George done enough of that?
Now go ahead... flame me. :cool:

OK Pussy.

Since I won't be there does that make me a pussy too? Is that kinda like being a male lesbian? I guess we'll have to check with Cliff....

It was all a taunt to relieve Al of his frustration. I think its more common in Jersey.

My guess is that an "average" Member makes 3.5 posts,the first being a classic "What my 1xxx-2 worth? Oh...,and then splits.

So anyone that goes further is abve average but not necessarily from Lake Wobegone!

Not to worry, I think I've helped Al's stress level today with a sweet little purchase :D
Oh yeah, #9 has a new home ;)

Thanks again Al!

Congrats and welcome to a very small group...lots of others have had to plunk down deposits and will be waiting months to get theirs.

And, this way, you get a certificate. # 3 will forever be unrecognized...without certificate, an LX wrench, and shipped in merely a "molded", not "deluxe molded" case it deserved. The shame, the shame. :( :( :(

Seriously, Al made sure to place the first (or one of the first orders) to help the OFC get low numbers. It is to his credit that he got five of the first eleven made. Especially when you consider that some of the first were either used for major guitar shows or for the reps to demo.

Maybe Al will give me two certificates when he ships the one I am buying from him :confused: :D :confused:
