Ok, after 3 years of not meeting, and the rest of the US making fun of us, I've moved over here from over there so that we can get on with getting together

lol I put 2 dates in pick a date for you guys if that weekends alright for you. From what I can see we got people in CT,Boston, and Nashua. I have another friend that will probably go with me since hes the one that got into the carpc scene but never started it himself. I bounce around anywhere between salem nh to boston, ma, beaches in hampton to the burlington area. so i'm just about everywhere lol. Anyone got any suggestions on where to meet? Red seems to be the farthest person. I'm going to stalk down some more people in the NH,MA,CT,RI Area and see if theyd like to come.

Alright so I went through the old post and sent a pm or email to the following people listed above. The email said.

Subject: New England Meet

Hi,

My name is Tony(ViViper1 on the forums), I'm helping planning a CarPC meet (yea the one thats been ongoing for the last 3 or 4 years lol). I got your name from the New England People Thread (http://www.mp3car.com/vbulletin/mp3c...nd-people.html) and took it upon myself to PM/Email you due to your activity on the boards (I know stalkerish, but I figure thats the best way to contact you all). Anyone that hasn't been on a while I emailed, anyone active got a pm. The new thread is called Summer 2008 New England Meet (http://www.mp3car.com/vbulletin/mp3c...land-meet.html).

So far the questions are

So i'll put it out there and say i'll be on it.
agenda
1) pick a weekend
2) pick a place [where i failed last year]
3) find some food
4) get there
5) share good MP3car type stories
6) repeat?

1) Weekend seems to be June 21st or June 22nd
2) Springfield,Ma area. still to be determined, through your thoughts in. I'm thinking Holyoke Mall, or some park for a nice bbq.
3) theres food everywhere so dont worry about it. We'll either goto a store or bbq in which we'll need to decide what to bring. But Location first.
4) I'm assuming you'll get there in your car.
5) Ofcourse
6) Ofcourse, Something we'll worry about later


Thanks,
Let me know
-ViViViper1 (Tony)

I never ended up putting a carputer in my car but I'd be interested in meeting with others and sharing my love for car audio. I'm not going to throw out any dates but once you decided on a time/date/place I'll try to make it.

Thanks, that's actually my old ride. I went the simple route for my current install. I haven't been on this site much lately so I never updated my signature.
