Rhode Island, Southeast Mass.

Hi Linkster, I've been a snow bird since I retired. The New England winter (particularly this one) is the reason we decided to migrate. Rhode Island is a beautiful state, particularly in the summer. As far as tax burdens and economic development, etc., hopefully, Gina Raimondo will be able to get RI moving in a better direction. I'm hopeful.

May I send you a private message to exchange more specific information regarding our audio hobby?

Mike

I spend the summer and most of the fall in Bristol RI. Bristol is also where I have my primary system. I am quite interested in participating in an audio club. I'll keep an eye on this thread.
Mike

Hi all, what if we respond with an affirmation of our intention to join and participate? We could then briefly introduce ourselves, our musical tsste, audiophile background and current system configuration. Follow-on discussion could include: system improvements made in the last twelve months, improvements being considered in the coming twelve months and an overview of audio topics that are of interest to us.

What do you think?

Mike

Hi Tom, I like your idea of getting things started, while interest is high. Unfortunately, I won't be returning from Florida to RI until mid-May. I very much would like to participate upon my return and would welcome the opportunity to meet and participate with you and the others showing interest. I'm looking forward to hearing how your first meeting goes.
Mike.

Hi Tom, I'll send you a private email with my contact info. I look forward to the opportunity of participating with all.
Mike

Some had previously indicated an interest in trying to get a RI/MA audio group started. I'm still interested, how about you?

Hi Colecat, I've been in phone contact with Linkster recently and will be meeting him personally on Wednesday. I'll speak with him regarding his thoughts for a get together. I like your idea of meeting over coffee, lunch or whatever. The important thing, for me, is that we meet and figure out what a good next step might be. I'll update you on Wednesday. Anyone else with an interest?
Mike

Hi Colekat, I spoke with Lincoln today and he would like to join us for an introductory session with an eye towards possibly forming an audio club. We agreed that a reasonable first step would be to meet, as you suggest over coffee or whatever, to introduce ourselves and to speak of our current audio interests and next steps. I'm happy to coordinate a meeting for us and ask that you provide me with convenient days when you would be available. Lincoln's calendar frees up the third week of May.

Any one else interested?

Thanks - Mike

Stereo05, Colekat, Linkster and Schubert - how about if we target the first week of June for our initial meeting? My schedule is generally flexible and I am open to either weekdays or weekends. Meeting over breakfast, lunch or dinner is my preference and I am open to any other suggestions.

How about you?

Thanks,
Mike
