It is time to start planning and establishing a schedule for the VHC Weekend known in ancient times as voluminous maximous.

lets have ideas for Fun and Educational 1-2 hour activites.

This year we will have specific attendees directing an activity. This will help make a better Convention for everyone as I get overloaded and organization suffers.

Tentatively we have:

Old School Dave directing this years Speaker Cab comparison.

Mark Huss sharing his knowledge with, Tech Talk

DR201 - KT88 Verses EL34 taste test.

HIWATT amps evolution - the same speaker enclosure and guitar. amps switched and compared


Thanks and I hope to see you at the VHC!

Just giving you a hard time :) .

I think it's a great idea to spread around the responsibilities and welcome other members stepping up to lead different sessions.
