PlugFest 08 Photos and Video

Can someone (or a few people ) take lots of pictures and some video for PlugFest? I'd REALLY like to see this preserved more in pics and vids - any other thoughts?

Thanks!

John

We'll have him not film you - probably an expensive camera too with no need to ruin anyway...

Bringing a camera, John.

Thanks, Scott. You spared me the traditional side "suck it in Jake" shot.

Thanks for posting the pics! Almost felt like I was there. Sure hated to miss it...but it was out of my hands. Looks like there was some beuatiful pluggage as always. Part that I really missed was catching with everyone. Hope to see some of you at the upcoming shows and OTW.

Break out the Kleenex.

Joe Brotz ( are you Polish Joe? If so, your my people!), is one hell of a talented plug builder and that small frame carries big energy, it has to to make that many plugs and his wife must really understand his needs. Lucky man and just an awesome guy.

It was my priviledge to have my set up next to his I can tell you that.

Why even try.........
