Ok, ok, ok, maybe I'm nuts but I'm on a roll here. I know I'm probably over doin' it, maybe, but you know, this is the first time in a long time I've found a place to actually talk to people, real people that are into the same thing that I'm into. I know people probably loook at us as weirdo's or excentrics or something, but I'm at the point in my life where I don't even care, as long as it doesn't hurt anyone.. I hope you know what I mean. I've toned down a lot of the "rebel stuff" over the years, but I'm not gonna give it up completely, I mean, what the heck: if I'm into something that really brings me a thrill, maybe tap into the "inner child" or what ever the heck you want to call it and it doesn't really hurt anyone, What the heck, let's do it and keep em wonderin' i.e. "Hey, do you guys really find any good stuff with that thing"???
OK, enough with the psychological BS. Lets talk conventions here. Wait, don't touch that dial. I'm just playin' with you a little, but I'm serious. Is there or are there any conventions out there for metal detectorists, especially, Minelab Quatro users, or any Minelab people.??? All we need is "Mike" to call Minelab and set it all up.
Mike, all you gotta do is call Minelab and set up a convention where we get free room and board and transportaion. Tell em: "We'll pay for the food". Of course I'm kidding about the freebies, but honestily, I may be on to something here. Maybe we couldn't get free transportation but what about a better rate on hotel rooms at the agreed upon place of the convention. Minelab could sponser the whole thing, they would have a tax rite off and we would have a chance to not only talk to the Minelab guys in person, look at the products, but talke to each other and hopefully have a great time by all. Minelab could sell a lot of products at a convention like that, I believe it because, I've been to other conventions and they sell a lot of stuff. They might even want to bring in other manufacturers that are related to detectiing, i.e. coil manufacturers, scoops, books, etc. You name it. I think it could be done, the only hassell is getting the money together to go, but if there was such a thing set up, we could all save our coins and try and make it to the "gig" so to speak. I hope you're catching my drift here. This could be a beautiful thing, if it was set up right and had enough advertising and time for people to plan for it.
