I will be there with my wife and girls. They(the girls) are really excited about this event. They love going and watching people doing things that their Dad can't do.

I am so bummed out that the great Bruce Ward is not coming! Bruce was gonna give a seminar on how to hate everything about the sign trade and how to treat customers and other people in the trade like second class citizens.

"Mike Meyer and I started this forum in June after frustration of the bickering that goes on on some of the "Jerry Springer" Sign forums on the web. (certainly not this great forum of *****'s)"
I sure don't get you Mark.
Steve and Barb have devoted a large chunk of their lives to this website and bringing letterheads together from all around the world. Letterville is a phenomenal accomplishment and an incredible source of fellowship and resources for so many in this industry. It is also the Shortreed's livelihood, why are you so intent on damaging it?
Sorry for continuing the derailment of your post Ryan. Southern Muster looks like a great gathering. I know the amount of planning and work that goes on behind the scenes. It looks like you have things well under control, good on you for taking it on! I hope Letterheads are considerate and register early so you can plan better. That isn't always easy especially in this business where last minute jobs with time sensitive deadlines land in your lap on a regular basis. Good Luck.

I'm not judging, just not understanding. If you hate the bickering that goes on here so much why do you partake in it?
I am defensive of my friends just as you are of yours. I most definitely consider the Shortreed's in that category. Thats all.

Let's not concentrate on our differences. The only thing really important is that Letterheads are getting together for a live meet. This has been going on long before there were any websites.
Live meets are still your very best opportunity to meet up in person, learn something new, and share any secrets you have picked up at this point in your own career. It's about recharging your batteries and making new friends.
To me, a "Letterhead" that has never attended a live meet is similar to a kamazasi pilot with 50 missions. We all agree the idea behind Letterheads is still as wonderful as it was back in the 70s. I'd like to encourage everyone reading this to get up off your best intentions and attend this meet. That invitation includes all you old Letterhead Vets! Start going to meets again. Join in the action and watch the fire reignite within yourselves.

I am accepting all donations of money so that I can attend this meet without having to skip a mortgage payment.
Thank you for your help.

Steve Shortreed Rocks! Thanks for putting this thread back on track...
This meet is going to be a great one guys... And I hope all that can attend will but, We have quite enough people registered to have a great time but, WILL go over the original number of 50 if necessary. That being said... We will have a registration cut off date of Sept. 20th. This way we can plan accordingly for the number of people who will be there. So if you have not sent in your money this will be your last chance. Thanks...That is all

Looks like a gorgeous venue. Wish I could make it. Bubba Fair, that slideshow brought a tear to my eye, Ashokan Farewell is a favorite and always chokes me up. Sometimes I play it just so I can cry, I am a hard-shelled gal. Love....Jill

I echo what Jill said about the venue Ryan..Looks great!
Of the several meets I have attended, those that were held "in the country" were about as good as it gets. (Well the one in Bloomington IN was also pretty good too, but for other reasons!!! )
Jill's last meet was super as was Brian Hanson's meet in New Brunswick and Jimmy Chatham's in GA was a lot of fun too!
Almost makes me want to attend another one...but we'll be a bit further south in November.
I know you will all have a great weekend!!!
