    I have asked if the location would be available the 11th or 12th and am waiting on a response if either day would work.

    This is terrible news. Bazil has the Zika virus, Boston has most beautiful fall weather and a Dunks on every corner serving pumpkin spice muffins. You know what to do...

    Saturdays work very slightly better for me, but I'm going either way. Does Blink audio need tables / chairs? Looking at their website, looks like a nice store.

    I think they might. They are setting up a brand new listening studio and I was hoping we may get to use their new studio. I'm still waiting for feedback for that weekend and will let folks know.

    I’m definitely interested after a, seemingly long, headphone abstention... I’ll be able to confirm once a date and location are set.

    Hey @Lou Casadonte you ever hear back from blink? If not we should find a different home. Want to lock down a date so we can get as many people as possible, and maybe request some loaners of some of these new cans everyone is talking about.

    I have not heard back. Does anyone else have a venue? I'll put more pressure on. Work was a slam this week.

    You can put me down as a potential show. It's about a two hour drive for me, which isn't bad.

    If we do not get into blink high end for some reason, I might be able to get use of some space at my marina here in RI and host folks on the boat afterwards.

    If the Cambridge location works out, count me in for the 11th.

    Yeah it's about 2 hours for me. I can most likely go, assuming I don't get a lot of homework or projects.

    I don't want to bring an army of stuff, but this is what's at my disposal that I'm willing to bring for the weekend. Let me know if any of you want to listen to any of this.

    I'm mostly a portable IEM or speakers person, so nothing really too figured out on the full sized headphone category.
