Fast track it. I'll come pick you up.
I have a lot of respect for John Greven. Would be fun to meet some more NW folks. This is very tempting.

I got so much out of John's seminars at the last couple of GAL's - recommend it to anyone who can get there. I can't but wish I could. (a little anecdote - my wife and I were sitting in his seminar on selecting woods for tops - tapping and flexing and all the ritual. He had three different guitars built out of sister sets of the woods that he was tapping, alike in every other way. My wife turned to me at one point and said "I CAN hear the differences, I'm starting to understand what you are doing out in your shop" I told her I was trying to understand what I was doing out in my shop.) |

It's on my calendar. I had a nice time at the dinner last month and have been looking forward to this event ever since. |

I could get over there early if anyone wants to meet up ahead of time. Tuesday is taco night at The Sloop, an iconic vestige of old Ballard! http://theslooptavern.com/ |

Excellent! I'll get there by 5:30 and grab a table. I'll be the guy who looks like a luthier: bald head, grey beard, thick glasses; you won't be able to miss me.  I've never had their tacos but I like tacos, so ...
