+1. A big part of going to shows for me is meeting people and making contacts. I was talking to William Chappell at a show last year (Strongsville, OH I think) and showed him my wantlist. He happened to have the Rogers Peet Dazzy Vance at home. We made a deal and he mailed it to me. Couldn't be happier.
