Myself and Tom Duggan are planning on being there as close to 2pm as possible.
We will be meeting at my place in Melrose before going up between 1pm and
1:30pm to load all the tables and stuff in my truck. If anyone would like to
meet us there E-mail me privately so I can give you directions.
If you are meeting at the show the best thing to do is just walk around till
you see us. I don't know where we will be this time but I would check the
location we had last time (Far back left). If you still can't find us go to
the Magazine/Book area at the Back Center that is where checkin is and they can
point you to our location.
