How can you be defending your Thread. It's not like you are possibly taking business away from some of the other Bass conventions! It's THE game in town and I feel BAD every year when I just can't make it down there myself. I think in the future, I will make an effort next time it's close.
If there are any other Bass gatherings around to mention for the DB, PLEASE be a Shill if that's what it takes for us to find out about it..
