is it too early to start a SEMA 2011 thread?!

Who is going this year?

Id love to do another get together -last year we had a great group!

Let us know when you arrive and what hotel- we can decide by that where to hold the HAMB meet & greet. Cant wait

 

How does "one" get a pass into the show, since it is not a "general public" event?

 

Well since it IS an industry trade show- you need to be working at an automotive based company or own one or something from the auto industry.
You log onto the SEMA website -create a profile- and you can sign up/purchase for tickets there- I think its like $35 pp

 

We'll have this in the Original Parts Group booth.

 

nice! Hopefully we can all meet again this year. Ill probably have something in the ARMO booth again-not sure- its a hell of a trek from Boston

 

Hey, Lenny
I'll be there Monday thru Wednesday. Looking forward to seeing you guys again. The Tuesday night thing seemd to work last year.

 

I'll be there. Not sure what days yet but I'm going.

 

I'll be working the PerTronix/Patriot Exhaust/Doug's Headers/JBA Performance Exhaust booth as usual
Don't forget the tribute to OGNC (Courtney Hallowell) at the Hard Rock as well

 

Does auto pinstriping count????

 

need a business license number and tax id

 

Whats the deal with the Courtney Hallowell Tribute??? Have not heard about this, and it might convince me I should attend this year...Alan

 

Going again this year, cant wait it is always worth the trip.

 

we are signed up, and got the registration confirmations already.

I am in the industry, so it wasn't hard to get a pass.

find someone that likes you, and have them invite you as a friend.

the ticket is $25.00.

it is a little harder than in years past, when we created a dummy business one year, and got by on that...apparently they didn't check too closely then. we got a lot of mail to that business name, as well.

it is not an event to be missed...

everyone in the car biz wants to go if you ask them about it...

 

Will be there as always. Scored tickets to the NHRA breakfast tuesday.

 

be there M - F, last year tuesday night was a good time, just need to make sure we are all at the same bar this time!!

 

If anyone needs an "employee" for the show, I just might be persuaded......

 

Does anyone remember what night we met last year? Was it Tuesday or Wednesday? We are staying in New York New York- Expedia has some great deals right now....

 

bump-

 

I think it was Tuesday.

 

going all week went to the hilton for the meet and great but could not tell who was there for the hamb gathering or not and just left.

 

Driving the van out to be in one of the AirLift spots(hopefully outside again), and with some major changes

 

So, Lenny, got any ideas about a meet & greet? Last year it was on Tuesday at the Hilton.
We just have to make sure we all meet at the same bar.

 

I'm leaving this Friday and will be there all week. John I will stop by and see ya again and check out the van.

 

Tues might work again.

Since we seem to all have it narrowed down to the right hotel, a good 1st step, it might be easier to find everybody this year! We just gotta focus in on 1 bar this time!

LOL

 

I'm going this year.

 

So, Tuesday at the Hilton? What bar, what time?

 

Tuseday night at Hilton, bar in middle of Casino around 7?, if I remember I'l bring a HAMB sign, hope to see a few of you their!!

 

I cant get there until about 8 or so - have the ARMO reception first but sounds good.Id suggest toward the left side (if you are standing right in front of the bar looking at the bar) where the slot machines side is....

 

Anyone driving out from MN? I need a gallon of paint brought out.

 

I'm there Mon-noon to Thursday-noon. Tuesday night I have a vendor dinner to go to. Somebody have a few beers for me.
