We signed up again this year, but it looks like my bus won't be out of the body shop in time.

Whichever one isn't out of the body shop, drive the other one. Or show up in a SOB (Some Other Brand) like some have been known to do...

Oscar is the one in the shop, Bus #2 runs, but only goes in reverse at the moment. Seattle to Maupin is a touch long for me to go in reverse, I think. :pirate:

I had a lot of fun though last year, I'm really going to miss it.

I hope to be there on Thursday, early enough to set up my tents. And Mark, if you're listening, I'll bring an extra mic and stuff. If I can plug my guitar and/or mando into your sound system, that would be great, but I could also bring a small amp if necessary.

I miss this event greatly. It worked so well a few years in a row, but has since fallen on the same weekend as the 24 hours of Le Mans, which is a massively important get together for me and a group of friends every year. I do hope to make it again someday, even if I have to bring a satellite dish so I can get both cups filled at the same time.

I hope everyone has a blast, which is pretty much unavoidable from my few experiences with it. cheers.

Maupin was great, music was perfect, weather was just fine.

It was, it was. Thanks again to Mark and company for putting this on.

(But I do miss those barbecue ribs we used to have ...)
