We crammed a lot into one large room, and other than the smell of chlorine from the pool, the show was very well received. People were already asking when the next one was- we barely survived this one! |
|
Wow! Two rooms- this allowed for bigger displays. We're moving up. |
|

Dan Doiron doing a great job demo'ing some BOSS recording gear. |

Everyone was excited to see Gibson make an appearance. |
|
|
|
Two bigger rooms! Even bigger displays, and even more people. |
|
|
|
Local artist Duane Leblanc and his wife Rene from www.leblancdesigns.com made an appearance. Duane's done some great murals and T-shirts for us. |

Our first "special guest"- Richard Gilewitz from Tacoma Guitars did some great playing, and everyone loved his talent and humor. Thanks Tacoma! |
|

By now the Gibson displays are getting massive...but we don't mind. Three rooms, so there's lots of space for lots of guitars. |
|
|
|
Even while taking some time off, Dan Doiron still showed up for great demos at the Roland and BOSS display. He's a trooper. |

Guitar Royalty- we had the huge honor of having Robert Godin make a special trip from Montreal JUST to visit us. He talked about guitar-making to a full house on Friday night, and stayed for pictures and autographs later. What a guy. |
|
|
|
Dan Doiron from Roland knocked 'em dead on Friday night. Always fun to watch, he can really show you what Roland and BOSS are capable of. |
|
|
|
More space, bigger displays, better deals, bigger crowds. What fun! |
|
|
|
The three rooms are in full swing now, and people really have a great opportunity to try and buy some amazing gear. |
