    Florida Audio Expo Dinner

    Can I get an idea if the members attending the Florida Audio Expo would like to meet one afternoon for dinner and drinks? Mike did a wonderful job at RMAF and we all had a fantastic time talking all things audio I thought it only appropriate we do the same at FAE.

    Guys I was thinking of Feb 9th Saturday night for a Shark dinner. Would this work for everyone?

    Re: Florida Audio Expo Dinner

    I did a search around the venue for restaurants and this is a list of what looked nice. Not being from the area I will need some local sharks help.

    Maggiano's Little Italy
    Seasons 52
    Terra Gaucha Brazilian Steakhouse
    Shula Steak House
    Ruth's Chris
    Ocean Prime
    Eddie V's Prime Seafood

    Let me know what everyone thinks.

    Ditto, look forward to putting some faces with the online personas. Bring music! (unless widely available on streaming svcs, etc).

    FYI, Seasons 52 is literally across the street from hotel, walking distance (500 ft), so no worries with driving/parking, etc.
    Food is good, place is big enough where they should be able to accommodate a large reservation party. Non-seafood options for Phil
    Shulas is good also, though some might balk at walking there.

    cheers,

    AJ

    Re: Florida Audio Expo Dinner

    Well everyone we are about a month away from the first annual Florida Audio Expo shark dinner. Looks like we have a modest size group for fun, festivities and all things audio discussion at dinner. I will wait until closer to D day before I call in for reservations.

    I'd love to attend, however my birthday is Feb. 9 and we're staying with friends who have planned to take us out to dinner. Hopefully, I can meet some of you while attending the show. I'll be the old fat white guy.
    Regards,

    I won't be staying for Saturday night. Is there also a dinner scheduled for Friday, as the poll would suggest?

    Re: Florida Audio Expo Dinner

    Looking forward to meeting many of our fellow members at the dinner Saturday night.

    Bob I am sorry but the majority voted for Saturday night but if you and any others want to head out on Friday night as well let’s figure out a secret meeting spot and dinner location. Anyone interested send me a PM.

    Indeed Mark. However, you should have seen the diversity in the people that attended this show. Many of us were positively impressed by the many young people a and females that were present over the weekend. The organizers did a great job in marketing the expo locally. You should be able to see some of the diversity in the show coverage thread.
