It’s not too early, is it??? I am SO psyched!!!
So, who’s going to Hampton Bay Days??? I mean, other than me???
This is gonna be SOOO cool. Hey, sounds like we REALLY need to do the shirt thing. Who can get it started up??
This is a tough one for me! How far is it from here to there? I donno, but I do know I’m afraid to even look! 😆
Hey Rich, is everyone going to crash at your place? 😆

Lake Lanier, GAIt’s about a 3.5 hour drive from Greensboro, NC. Just hop on I-85 and drive north. If you are truly interested, I can give you more detailed directions.
So…..Is it 3 hours the fastest way or 5 hours the MVF way? 😆 Or is it 3 and half hours? 😆
David Day
Lake Lanier, GAOh, baby! You’ve obviously never ridden with me in my ’89 Acura Integra Hatchback!!!!! It’s 3.5 hours the MVF way!!! 😯
Hampton, VA hotel info for travellers is posted on the Bay Days thread in the General Chat area.

Rich – since you (Hampton) and I are local, perhaps we can get something set up for a local gathering spot to meet the fine folks at Bay Days. Feel free to send me a PM if interested.

You guys set up a “watering hole” to meet! You never know who might show! ❗David Day

Do both! 😆
On the other hand, a “meet after” is mandatory!

Lake Lanier, GAIf folks want to do a meet up before the show (Saturday), I’d look at … say, meeting at one of the Greek-owned steak houses around (Sam & Steves, Angelo’s, Sammy’s, Steve & John’s). Very reasonably priced and good food.
About shirts…that was on the table a few months ago…probably too late to get in orders as a tribute to the loyal fans at Bruuuce.com. But still a possibility, or hats, or something…
May not be able to make a meet after – I’m more of the morning person for sure!
ADDED (for those curious as to exactly what was edited):
About shirts – this is certainly something I would entertain for this group of folks on this forum, with the following restrictions: the understanding that if I get them you would take them off my hands, and the understanding that I don’t want to profit off them! It would be a Bruuuce.com fan shirt only, but someone has to take one back to Si (my treat).I’ve been PM’d with a contact for shirts but would still need some art work. I would also need to know who is interested and what sizes they would want. I’m thinking the best way for you to contact me may be at this address – webmaster[at]brucehornsby.com for all responses.
If folks are horrified by this option, I certainly will withdraw it. But – if you wanted a way to see each other in the crowd, this would do the trick. Hats could be another option if you wanted them. Again, time is the big thing, and I won’t have a price point until I have an idea of what to actually get. I’m certain it won’t be a boat load of $$$, but it’s all about interest at this point. 36 days and counting, so I’m saying let me know Thursday, August 7th at the address above if interested and let me know how many shirts and what size. I’ll post back up here with any totals.
Oh, and if interested, why not discuss artwork? What about using Ty’s tribute (http://www.brucehornsby.com/the_portrait_story.htm)?
Bryandunn, you are a doll for taking all this on. We may have to crown you “King of Bay Days!
Just let me know when, where, and how to get there for any meet-up before, and how much for the shirt. I like the logo idea, and, of course, it HAS to have Bruuuce.com in a prominent place. I vote for teal blue, but will take anything available…….(don’t say it, David!)
MVF wrote:I vote for teal blue, but will take anything available…….(don’t say it, David!)I can’t help but say…..teal blue? What about pink? 😆 I do look good in pink!
It goes good with the dreggs! 😆Bryan, that’s most excellent of you to want to do that! I would luv to meet up with you guys Saturday night, but the best I can do is arrive on Sunday morning. That’s Just The Way It Is! 😆 That’s why I’ve been suggesting a “meet after” also.
Would luv to see everyone! Why not plan both?
A “meet after” walking distance from the stage. A “drop in” for however long you can stay. I know it’s a “school night” and people have to work. However, you, Rich and MVF can meet for at least one Coke or St. George’s best! Lucky for daverich, wife and me, we are taking a holiday on Monday! I tell you what…..In the fine tradition of previous “meet ups” and hopefully the first “meet after”, drinks at the “meet after” will be on me!
Besides, I owe daverich and Rich a few pints anyway! 😆 All you have to do is name the place and show up for one long, tall cool one. 😆 Everyone can come for at least one! Like I’ve said before, you never know who might show!

Lake Lanier, GAIt’s 8/6, total shirts so far – 2 (1 gave me a size, MVF did not, so Dave, what size should I get for her? Be kind, you may see her soon!). Just keeping all up to date. Tomorrow is cut off day! For the shirts, that is…
Hope to get some closure to this tomorrow, the news is I’ve found a shop to do this for a reasonable price, under $10/shirt. That’s for under 24 shirts…if we hit 24, it will drop to under $8/shirt. Screen printed shirt, base color yet to be determined, but it will be a light color.
So…if you want ’em, let me know so I can order them. Send me an e-mail at webmaster{at}brucehornsby.com and let me know how many and the size.

That’s a MEDIUM, thank you very much!! ……as you should well remember….Really?? A medium??? I was thinking it was extra small! 😉
David Day
Lake Lanier, GAShirts are ordered…from my calculations I will have a few left over (like…5) because I had to get a minimum order quantity. Oh well! If someone wants them I will make them available at the show or…maybe at the meetup before the show. Looks like Rich is working on that on a different thread.
Also, I will have 1 shirt for all to sign – we’ll be giving that one to Melissa! Don’t forget about her, she’s a great gal. I’ll make sure she gets it.
Even though I won’t be able to make the meetup, you can count me in for an XL if you have any left over.
Speaking of left overs…..You and Rich plan a “meetup” somewhere on Saturday and for “The Left Overs” (Now that sounds like a great name for a band! 😆 ), plan on a “meet after” at the Taphouse where Trent says only the “brave” goes!
How does that sound for a plan?
David Day
Lake Lanier, GAPS Bryan, thanks for doing that and all you do!
That’s very nice of you!
