Once again it is time to fess up. I'm going to the Chicago show, and while I know several of the people on this journal, there are a lot I don't know. And with the adopted names, there are those I don't know if I know them or not. Regardless I would like to meet you, and I will only know who to look for if you tell me. And surely their are others in this boat with me.
Time to fess up if you are going.

I'd love to go, but a 10 hour ride is too much considering my current health status, and I couldn't afford to buy anything right at the moment anyhow!
Good Luck to ALL who are going and send back some reports!

Weather permitting, O Scale Trains mag will be there with a rack of back issues and whatever else we can do for you regarding subscriptions, advertising, articles, reviews, etc.
I aalsi intend to have at least 4 tubs of kits, cars, structures, and "stuff" for sale.

Appears to no longer be a problem,

other than a rather long drive........but I will have at least 5 hours of live King Crimson on CD and probably another 5 on a flash drive. All will be good.

Wow!!! Haven't even thought about "In the Court of the Crimson King" for many decades. Much of those days are a blur due to lifestyle, but sure is nice to think about them. Very Progressive and non-mainstream group.

That's really outstanding. They've been around since the late 60's and had to have some member changes. Seems to be hard to keep a style or sound of an original band for as long as they've been around.
