I really feel compelled to go to this. I hate to travel that far, but it's in the spirit of honoring Ron. Yeah, I've got to go!

Yes, I did really luck out. As soon as I bought those Iggy had them pulled for being "unofficial". Bummer. I was going to buy a spare set.

I did get a notice of this! VERY EXCITING! If anyone is going....indeed let me know!

I was hoping to meet up with Natalie while in NYC...didn't get a chance to get away....however, there's always next time Ms Natalie!

Fear not, I think I am coming to LA for this!

Still working on details here...I'm nearly 1000 miles away. But there IS such thing as a plane, now isn't there?

I really DO want to go to this!

Steve,

I am 3000 miles away and am really trying to make it happen!

Go on Cheapflights.com and check on airfares, lol.

Let me know if you find a cheap one!

Talk soon, Natalie

Thanks, Natalie. I'll check into that site.

Hope you can make it Steve and Nat!

Sounds Great! I wish i could go. I do have a friend in LA who will be going. Can't wait to hear about it!

Thanks, I have every intention of getting there. I'll keep y'all posted.

I live in L.A. and would like to attend. I'd sure like to have some more info, first.

A friend designed the poster - the one with the pic of Ron from the first album - but he doesn't know anything more than what it says on the poster. He promises to pass along info as he gets it and I will forward it to this thread as I get it.

This is the deal.......it's cheaper to take Virgin America, however, they're out of JFK! You can either have someone drop you off.....take the train......or Super Shuttle......or leave your car or take one of those buses to JFK! I forgot....are you in NJ??

The only reason I know is because I have friends who live east.....and the rates are high except out of JFK (virgin) to and from LA!

Whata think?

Live in Philly, rates are kinda cheap if you book early. Can get to Newark Airport also but Philly is better.

Waiting for a bit more info about what is going to take place before I actually book a flight.

If I am coming, I'll keep you posted via email.

BTW, Happy New Year!

Larry! You live in LA??? I had no idea! We shall have to met up....this is maddness!!!! I will have to send you my email!

It's seems as though Scotty Asheton is putting this on. And I'm pretty sure Scotty's kids now live in LA.

there seems to be 2 posters advertising this show. this one https://s994.photobucket.com/albums/af67/leanna_asheton/?action=view&current=gregwork.png appears to be designed by scott's daughter leanna.

If anyone has more info on this, please post as soon as possible.

Thanks very much.
