Will the Luther Burbank Center have wireless Internet available?

They haven't in the past. I wouldn't count on it. Drop Natalie a line to make sure though.

You won't have time to scratch your .... nose ... let alone surf. It is a ZOO like you have never experienced (in a very good way though).

I hear ya Tim!

I have done a few other festivals. The most crazy was the Jackson Blues fest 2006 where there were 20,000 people in a span of 48 hours. It was insane!
My mouth ran none stop from 10:00 am tell 1:00 am two days straight..

best bet is to find a hotel with internet access. Or maybe a local Starbucks .

Hey guys,

I can ask the venue about wireless, but I have not heard that it has this.

Please remember that the venue is now called the "Wells Fargo Center for the Arts". If you send someone looking for the Luther Burbank Center they might be confused!!

Guys,

Oh yes...very stoked! Things are coming together nicely, just tying up a few loose ends.

Next week we pull all the pieces together and set up! There will be some really neat changes to the layout this time that I think will benefit exhibitors and attendees alike.

I think each festival gets a little better than the last. Tickets sales have been good.

See you all soon -travel safe!
-Chris

My shop is raining inside. Oh, maybe its just me enjoying this sweltering midwest HUMUGITY. I have two dehumidifiers running wide open and my electric meter looks like a tachometer on a F1 car. Its really not thaaaaaaaaaaaaaat bad ... enough whining and back to the fret job.

Speaking of fret job, anyone have any info on the OLF guitar. I still have not seen it ;(

I was putting on a clear pick guard on my last guitar last night and I scorched the finish with my heat gun. I am SO hosed!

I don't know if I can fix it in time or not. I was so frustrated I just had to walk away and

The rest of my guitars & stuff were delivered to LMI today. I just sold The Eagle (my Zircote eye candy piece) and that was the one I wanted to show case. The buyer did not want to risk having it dinged at the show so I had to ship it to them on Monday. I was just hoping to have one more done for display.

Actually, now that I am a local person, I have found that (as with the sprots arenas that sell their name to the highest bidder) locals refuse to call it Wells Fargo and continue to say Luther Burbank.
