Pete B Posted June 22, 2011 Report Posted June 22, 2011 I plan to attend on Saturday. This will be my third year attending. It's a lot of fun. For me the best part is talking to Scott at the Mosaic table (in the past he has had some nice deals!). Quote
Stereojack Posted June 22, 2011 Report Posted June 22, 2011 I'll be there. Have attended every bash since 1978, although there are guys who have been going even longer! Quote
brownie Posted June 22, 2011 Report Posted June 22, 2011 Lucky you! I had fun at the three bashes I attended several years ago! Great event to watch films, buy records and make friends! Quote
sidewinder Posted June 22, 2011 Report Posted June 22, 2011 (edited) For me the best part is talking to Scott at the Mosaic table (in the past he has had some nice deals!). Indeed ! Wish I could be there (although I would probably bankrupt myself). Edited June 22, 2011 by sidewinder Quote
7/4 Posted June 22, 2011 Report Posted June 22, 2011 Maybe I'll stop in, since this about 10 minutes from my apt. Quote
Leeway Posted June 23, 2011 Report Posted June 23, 2011 Sounds like a nice event but....$40 for "early" admission? Not so nice Quote
Chuck Nessa Posted June 23, 2011 Report Posted June 23, 2011 These kinds of things give be chills. I was at one about 20 years ago. The best thing was seeing my old friend Rob Friedman from Record People. Quote
mjzee Posted June 23, 2011 Report Posted June 23, 2011 I went to one in the mid-90's. Was this on the upper east side of Manhattan, on the second floor of a building? Would anyone remember? Quote
