   Hi All
    Now that the Jet lag has subsided & the frusrtation of dealing  
with a post 911  airline system that screwed up every flight replete  
with layovers & lies, I can now give attention to  a replay in my  
head of the truly amazing & revolutionary experience it was.
   To be in a hall with 8 other colleagues who have knocked  
themselves out preparing,designing sweating bullets over their  
musical instruments/art was impressive.
   The amount of tonal firepower in all shadings of color,  
power,sizes iterations  & emotion in the piano Fortes on display was  
a joy to hear.
    To have this many versions of modern redesigned belly systems/ 
pianos in one room has not happened before in our organization & the  
enthusiasm by the brethren was poured out with generosity. My  
Personal thanks to all.

   It was also great to put faces with names & dinner with David  
A,Jurgen, Greg Newell,  Dennis E. & My self was a blast. The impromtu  
tech.sessions with Ron Over,Chris Robinson, Shawn Hoar, Ron Nossaman 
(you wild man), David Hughes, Terry Farrell & Jude Revely were  
personal blessings as well as  instructive & inspirational.
    Dennis & I  check out North Bennett St school after words & Judes  
Shop in Boston. Thank you.  Awesome place, Judes shop is in a former  
Locomotive fabrication building.

  David Andersen, a special thanks to you my Friend.  Your class is a  
must see & we sorely need your humble & enlightening perspective in  
our craft.
   Wally & Vivian Brooks are the newest


  Golden Hammer award recipeients & they Deserve it with Love &  
affection.

    Rick Florence, You da man. RIck  surrounded the rebuilders show  
with his interest from the inception, even to the point of renting a  
dance floor to place our pianos on in the class room to give them a  
truly representative tonal showing.  Plus  getting my room back at  
the Clarion after the gave it away because of a delayed flight. Did  
you have to hit somebody?  Nahh
   Thank you
   Sincerely
   Dale Erwin
