Anyone Going to the Axpona Show in March in Jackso

I really would like to go since I live in Florida - the most non audiophile state. We're all deaf down here. The retirees have tons of money but wouldn't dare spend it on Hi Fi or music since they just don't care. Better to buy season tickets to all the concerts so they can turn off their hearing aids and sleep. I'm not kidding, I have sat next to these people. Lets tear down that old house and build an impressive Mcmansion with an entry way big enough for a giant and a show off stainless steel and granite kitchen so muffy can boil water as we eat out in mediocre restaurants every night. We can get one of those Bose radio's for the living room. The nice man at the Outlet Mall said they were the real deal.
But, I digress. I went to the Stereophile show in Miami a billion years ago and enjoyed it alot. Don't think anything has come down this way since. I even have a friend in Jaksonville I can stay with. He has been begging us to visit for years. Probably can't do that though because he sayes our Curly Coated Retriever isn't allowed to come inside. Can you imagine not welcoming a Curly Coated Retriever? Are you listening Roger? Oh no, of course not, you are a musician, not an audiophile.

May go. Looking for cheap fare from Newark. Hotels are expensive in the 'walk' area but I am hunting for $125 a night. Will it work? Hard to tell, given it is on the heels of CES THE, which is expensive for supplies. Would seem the bucks are better spent there, if you are a supplier. Stereophile magazine being a part of it should get some good press coverage. A first year on any show is a gamble since few know the demo's of the people demo'ing and looking. At least there are some brave people willing to gamble. But new is fun and I don't think RMAF will be impacted that much as it has been around for awhile.

Has anyone been able to determine the show hours for each day; I don't see them listed at the show site.

I'll be there - I'm only about 30 min. away ;) Finally a close show ;)

Yep, I'm planning on going. Looking forward to an infusion of audio culture into the sunshine state. Love your take on Florida Hifiharv, often true. I've been in the same concert halls with those blue haired somnambulists and their old mink stoles reeking of mothballs. Of course we should be thankful they do go and support live music, you don't see too many people under 60 or so at most classical music events.
