As earlier stated, the expo is opening at 9 am but they're letting us in at 8 am. Coffee, muffins and donuts will be waiting. Our 'Back to the Basics' Letterheads' 2001 Milwaukee Panel Jam started out being casual and informal but we realized people want some structure so we're trying to nail up some times. We plan on having a bulletin board with times posted at the entrance and we might have to adjust for some of the speakers' schedules.

Tramp Warner is going to give a demo on truck graphics. Vince Ballisteri is going to take groups of 10 at a time and work on lay-outs and color all three days during the meet. Jack Lindenberger is going to work on glass projects, doing surface gilding, glass will be provided along with projects but the gold will have to be purchased. Our vendors are going to give us a special price at the show on gold. Rick Dolphens is having a dimensional signs workshop. Rick will have carving and shaping tools and will have foam samples for everyone and also a sandblasting booth. DeWayne Connot will be demonstrating straight line pinstriping throughout the event. Bob Parsons will be there doing cartoons. Superfrog's theme is how to make a buck, he'll demo his water-based paints and of course, the famous frog juice. Our favorite four will be doing basic hand lettering, starting with Mr. Mike Meyer, rumored major of Mazeppa. Tim Peterson is cruising in on his big Harley. Dave Correll and Scott Bourma included will all be demonstrating different kinds of hand lettering. Hands down, hand over, mahl stick and our friend Scott is our leftie. Mr. Mike Meyer will also address everyone on Milwaukee beer along with Milwaukee slang and the future of sign writing.

So Wednesday we start setting up and if anyone wants to come and help, feel free. Thursday the doors open at 8 o'clock. Party and paint 'til you drop. Friday and Saturday the same. Sunday we have to clean up and move out. Any other questions drop a line.

Oops...

Let's not forget about Robert Frese is going to have basic gold gilding on glass on Friday, Saturday he's having advanced gilding. He's going to demonstrate different gold textures. We have one room set up for seminars using alternating times with Mark Roberts on how to run a small business sign shop. Jim Hingst on vinyl application, tools of the trade, sugstrate prep, proper vinyl for the application. I hope I didn't forget anyone else.

Friday's going to be the big bang with Bub's international award winning mesquite barbecue, I just can't wait. So get ready for three days of painting, learning and tasty grub. So pack up the brushes and see ya on the 2nd. Adios.

Thanks Jeff! Barb nad I are packing up the "sleeping car" as we speak. We plan on heading your way Tuesday morning. We'll be crossing the border at Port Huron and heading west on 69 to 94 and on into Chicago. If you live along our route, please give us a shout.

Are you guys interested in a little bit of HeadTV Jeff? We'd need a phone line and local dialup number and connection info. If it means extra work or cost don't bother with it. Looking forward to meeting you and seeing all our Letterhead pals.

Boy I just can't wait to get the heck out of here. It's so hard to tie up all those loose ends. I'll have to get up early to pinstripe a pair of semi fenders and crank out a pile of vinyl for a pulling tractor. And then cut some cedar for the wall mural Barry is paintin. Then off to the Expo. oops forgot the signs for the show. I think I'll get there by 10:00 I hope you dont think I'am crying I guess I am thinking about tomorrow.There is so much to do yet. Well good night
