[Denman John]

For those of you interested, today is the last day of early bird pricing for Wintergrass 2016

http://wintergrass.com/tickets.html

Got my tickets and hotel. Who's going?

[Eddie Sheehy]

I'm set up. See you there, John.

[bigskygirl]

I'll be there again in 2016. Had a great time last year.

[Spruce]

Yup.
(...but I'm still in hot hot Summer mode...)

[Mandobart]

I'll be there, staying at the Hyatt for the first time. Bought my tix on the way out last year; reserved my room the next day.

[rockies]

I'm already booked in as well. Watch for a white haired (what's left) old fart being guided by his wife (vision failing ).

Got tickets. Got room reservation. Got Bourbon.

Does your bourbon need a guest?

[DPrager]

Honey, call the distillery and order another barrel...

[Austin Clark]

Honey, call the distillery and order another barrel...

I'm here David and I'll bring the barrel! (Or the jars.....)

I hear the Hyatt is sold out already! Should be another fun year!

[bernabe]

Austin, ran into a gentleman at IBMA playing one of your F's he acquired at Winfield [3rd place winner mando competition] and it was D-lightful!

Cool, thanks! That would be Garrett Wren. That was a particularly good F5! #149 or something like that....

[Josh Levine]

If anyone ends up abandoning their room, I am interested in taking it.

[Eddie Sheehy]

Coming up...

[Denman John]

In a month's time we'll be in the thick of it

We'll be leaving after work on Wed. evening (Feb 24)and should be getting there early Thursday morning. The kids are registered in the Youth Academy again this year and that starts at 9am. There's a mandolin workshop that starts then as well, so it will be busy from the get go! This will be the first time we've stayed at the Hyatt, so I imagine that will throw a different spin on it.

Eddie ~ what mando goodness will you be bringing this year?

Sooooooo looking forward to this

[Eddie Sheehy]

Whatever fits in an Alaska Airlines overhead bin...

[Eddie Sheehy]

Getting excited... time to book the airport shuttle to the hotel...

[DPrager]

It's going to be a Hyatt week for me. Friday through Tuesday in Florida, followed by Thursday through Sunday in Bellevue.

Bellevue will be much more fun.

[Pete Martin]

Bellevue will be much more fun.

I don't hear this said very often...

[Denman John]

We printed off our tickets a couple of nights ago and wrote the kids' profiles for the Youth Academy. My wife caught the kids jamming in the workshop and shot a short video that we sent along with their profiles.

A week tonight and we'll be on our way. We're all looking sooooo forward to it!

[amowry]

Great video! Youth Academy is fantastic!

I'll be there this year. Can't wait!

[mandopete]

So who is hosting the single malt jam this year?

[mandopete]

I'm here David and I'll bring the barrel! (Or the jars.....)

I'll bring a 20 year old....

[bobrem]

So who is hosting the single malt jam this year?

I have excess scotch. Lagavulin OK?

[bobrem]

I heard a rumour that Mike Compton is doing a mando tasting at Wintergrass but haven't seen anything on the website. Can anyone confirm?
