Although I'm unable to participate, I cannot tell you the joy I am getting from this thread. I have seen other companies do GTGs (Get ToGethers), and think they are fabulous fun for all. Is this strictly for Axiom customers, or can other crazed audio nuts join in? I'm thinking of guys like Curtis (Ascend), NeverHappy (MA?), and even Craigsub (Everything, including Axiom). There's no saying they would even WANT to come, or be able to, but it might be nice to make it clear what is OK, and what isn't.

what is OK, and what isn't
it ISNT ok to get drunk and pee on the neighbors car..
it IS ok to get drunk and go skinny dipping at midnight..
it ISNT ok to touch or fondle the EP600's.
it IS ok to admire them from afar.

My summer is semi-wide open, so all I need is enough advance notice, and to convince my pregnant wife, of course.
Now to check on airfare...

good thing you guys aren't my neighbors...

I have a mental picture of most people on this board...the cover of darkness is NOT enough to allow you guys to go skinny dipping. Now, your spouses on the other hand...

Is "EP600" being used as an euphuism for body parts?

Can a former Axiom owner/still current BIG Axiom fan and disciple come to this thing???
For a limited few, a flight to Rochester with an overnight at Ford Manor and shuttle service to Dwight might possibly be available. bigjohn, tomtuttle, spiffnme and you other outlanders - think about how simple that is. Also, I'm guessing FordPrefect and others within 4-5 driving hours could be coerced into a similar offer.
Amie - can you start a list of some type. Who is close enough and willing to offer to accept immigrants on a Thursday for the Friday drive or Friday to Dwight, how many they could help with (I can take 3)
With planning and creativity, cheap plane tickets can be had and let's be honest - whose wife would not be happy to get rid of us for a weekend? Sleeping arrangements could be thrifty with 4-6 guys sharing a resort bungalow. It works.
Think about this 2 times. All the hours devoted to the forum. The common love of the Axiom stuff. A chance to pester Amie in person. The opportunity to loot the factory at 3 AM while everyone is passed out. Sounds like a plan to me.
C'mon - let's try and find reasons TO do this rather than to NOT do it.

Sounds good to me, but I couldn't take a day off work. I'd have to fly out of here Friday night or Saturday morning, and then leave the Great White North on Sunday, so my butt could be back in this seat by Monday.

After everybody crashes at your house Ray, I'll swing by with a 15 passenger van and haul us all up North!
