in a word.....awesome
in a few words.....holy **** did i get fat since comin back from new orleans!!! thanks for usin the wide angle lens skippy!!!

really cant say enough about today, fellas. i had an absolute blast! theres just somethin special about meetin up with a group of good people that share the same enthusiasm in somethin unique.
good conversation, plenty of laughs, great food, little bit of beer drinkin, lots of ****-talkin, lots of bad-mouthin (all about ira, of course :-D ),....just an overall awesome day.

got to see and hear a sanyo m-x920 for the first time.....drooled all over the mfer for about a half an hour...phenomenal radio
saw and heard an altec lansing imt-800....dont hesitate to buy one of these....the sound is unbeatable....no words for that one...
saw and heard a telefunken studio 1....its all that and then some....smaller than i expected....but def not small on sound
saw and heard a crown 850.....awesome boomer....everything you expect from a boomer...
saw and heard a sanyo m-x620.....awesome boomer for its size....even awesome for a boomer with a little more size....a must have

Blu_Fuz (Joe) is one hell of a host and just an all-around good dude. even if he hadnt fixed the casing on my 777 (which he started (and completed)on his own while i was checkin out radios), or he hadnt fixed the irreplaceable tape door arm on my toshiba rt-8930s (without hesitation), or hadnt given me the fm button ive been lookin for on my m70 since i bought it (for free)....i would still have nothin but good things to say about him.....well...yeah hes a bit perverted and loves talkin **** but come on....nobody's perfect.... :lol: big thanks to his lovely wife for makin some delicious food for us fat bastards and takin care of the baby while lettin the boys be boys. .....thanks for everything, joe

Cant say enough about skippy either. awesome to talk to, very knowledgable about boomers, and about as enthusiastic as one can be when it comes to these portable time machines.....also a great ****-talker.... :lol: ...had a great time hangin with him..

got to meet badboybill for the first time and....yup...you guessed it...another awesome guy. brought some sweet radios i never saw before...got to shoot the shiat with him for a bit about family and motorcycles and all that...good dude....gave me a label for my m70 (for free)....he also busted out some boomer knowledge for us and was just a real cool guy to hang with....big thanks to jeanie for comin and keepin him company on the long drive. not only was she easy on the eyes( :blush: sorry bill) but just a really nice, laid-back, super cool chick.... lucky bastard

all-in-all....couldnt have asked for a better day....super glad i passed on the st. patty's day drunkfest downtown with my crew, and chose to go to joe's
cant wait to do it again!
the 3/17/12 wisconsin mini meet was a total success :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Joe and his wife Ariel are such nice folks, I love going over to their beautiful home and hanging out. :yes:
It's only a 40 minute drive,so I go bug the hell out of him when I can,LOL! :angelic: :lol:
A BIG Thank you for putting up with our ****......... :thumbsdown: :grim: :lol:
GZ is a great guy and very cool to hang with,he's a big drunk and I almost fooled him into trading me his M90 for a Coby. :thumbsdown: :annoyed:
But he sobered up for a second and blew it for me,LOL!
Thanks for coming over today and spending a great day with us.....
Bill and Jeannie drove up from the middle of nowhere in Illinois to be there today.
They are also great folks and I always enjoy B.S.ing with Bill. :gathering:
We get along great and he brought some cool boxes. :cool: :drool:
Someday I'll talk him out of that damn Telefunken Studio 1 and finally get it back,LOL! :lol:

I want to type a ushy-gooshy-"me love you long time", kind of post buuuuuuut I don't have the time! :lol:


Great having you guys over.


GZ - I was more than happy to get your 777 case back into one piece. And hopefully that cassette door arm repair sets up well and holds strong :yes: . I'm soooo glad you decided not to hang with your "bro's-n-hoe's" yesterday and came up to hang with us :yes:

Skip - TURN THAT **** DOWN! :breakdance: :lol: Enjoy the M70 and I will see you soon :yes: .

Bill - Thank you sooo much for driving up all that way and enjoying our part of the country :dunce: :lol: . You and your wife are great company and fun to be around.

Arielle was more than happy to get some good eats and good treats together for us. Besides, she gets to eat it too :lol: .




Altec Lansing box still blows the Kaboom AND the TDK 2 speaker boombox out of the water :-O . I would have bet that the TDK 2 speaker would have hammered the Altec out and would have been real competition but it really was not. Two different animals.

The M70 :superduper: LED kit mod was installed during the meet and I can't thank Norm enough for making that soooooo easy to do :yes: . Thanks buddy.

So many radios and so little time even though you guys were here for 6+ hours! :lol:



Love ya guys :smooch:
