June 8-10, 2018 in Irvine, CA. Highly recommended. A large, well organized show.
I doubt this list is final.

yeah, I don't think that list is final as well. I plan on attending so far. Last yr was great show. "The Show" was supposed to return this year but don't know what happened to it.
I think you are talking about The Show in Newport which is supposed to be scheduled a week earlier than the LAAS.Quote:

Thank you for the information. I had not heard about T.H.E. Show Newport returning. I opened the link but there is very little information. No exhibitor list.
Exhibitor list looking a bit small honestly
Yes, many of the usual suspects and So Cal locals are missing.Quote:

Still no exhibitor list for T.H.E Show Newport Beach.
The west coast gong show continues. What a shame. They have an amazing market there and just can’t get it going. Ditto for New York’s show.
Maybe we need a Florida show...in the winter. In January or February when people up north are freezing their butts off. Something small to start out with like the Lonestar show. Something cost effective with some out of the box thinking. An alternative to the dying CES for audio. Hmmm....who would be the right person? Who do I know in Florida? Uhhh...wait...
Stay tuned friends...[emoji41].
I’ve been working on this with a few friends for a while now.
It would need to be in Orlando at the Convention center or near there Disney, in order to get a buy in from the spouses and if any children are involved they get to hang out at Disney for a few days. Hey its only money . :DQuote:

A nice beach side hotel on the Gulf would work for me. :DQuote:

Did I mention we have beaches here? ;)
I'm sure we can find some here for you, among other delights. :)Quote:

The little Fremer ramblings really do not tell the story. None of us or even the little great one himself ( Fremer) knows the battles and personal hardship this woman is going through with her divorce. Maybe she thought she could handle it and maybe she was so overwhelmed she broke drown, could be mentally and even financially. For those that have been through a divorce, you just might know whats she is going through. But she melted and failed to ask for help. Her bad.
This hurt me big time. I had a shopping list for LAAS. Now it is just a list. Two major speaker manufacturers I wanted to visit are not currently scheduled for T.H.E. Show. I contacted them individually since there is no exhibitor list currently published. But hey, the show is a month away. No need to hurry and publish useful information. I an not filled with confidence toward the management team. The timing and location suck for me anyway.

Audio shows are more important than personal relationships like marriage and religion.
The show must go on, no matter what. They can take away all our guns but they can't take away our Blues.
