    Yep.....I just booked a room at a La Quinta Inn that is close to the location. I always miss your swap because it's often during tax season. However, because the 15th is falling on a Sunday, I get an extra day. I'm hoping to get out of St. Louis early on Friday because there's a restaurant/microbrewery on Music Row that I love to eat at. I can't remember the name but I do remember how to get there. A couple of my buddies are selling frags there so I'll probably end up helping them transport frags/supplies.

    EDIT: I found the name of the restaurant. It's called Big River Grille and Brewing Works. For those going from out of town, it's not cheap but it's not horribly expensive either. It sure is good. http://bigrivergrille.com/ BTW, for those that are going there for the first time, leave time to visit The Parthenon and possibly tour the Opryland Hotel, walk Music Row, etc.

    Inwall. Look up yazoo brewery too. Way better beer than big river IMO. I love their dos perros. Its my #2 favorite beer. Our swaps are historically the last weekend in Jan but we moved this year. Its been good so far hoping folks bring their refunds to the swap. We hope to get enough draw to host a macna event in a year or two once they finish the Nashville convention center. I look forward to meeting you and everyone. I will be the frazzled guy on the microphone announcing things.

    INwall, you are correct. these types of events are my favorite. While Local club meetings are fun, they just cannot compare to seeing 100's of Saltwater fanatics in once location wheeling and dealing on coral like crack cocaine. Its the a great time of year, the weather will be PERFECT and we have a TON of folks selling corals. I dont want to advertise for another Forum website, but our club sales threads on R2R are teeming with Tons of nice corals from everyday members. this does not include the likes of High Definition Corals, Pacific East Aquaculture, Eye Candy Coral and others....
