Title: I'm driving to Detroit for Akfest, Audio show/April 27,28,29
Post by: toddnkaya on March 04, 2012, 02:51:43 PM

My wife and I are heading out to Detroit for Akfest. We are looking for someone to split gas, and share the hotel room
with us. We are driving up on Fri the 27th and returning the 29th. Staying at the hotel 27th and 28th.
Google    Akfest 2012    to see all the great vendors showing their stuff. I am going to pick up my Vapor Audio  Breeze speakers and stands.
 I am looking for 50 bucks for gas, and $100 for two nights at the hotel. Hotel room is two double beds.  So $150 gets you round trip to Deroit,
and two nights at the Hotel. The Akfest show is at the hotel.  The price of the show is twenty bucks for both days and free concert Sat. night.
I will be leaving Sunday around 2pm to get back to the Burgh at a decent hour.
The actual show is Sat. and Sunday. we are driving up Friday morningish.It's about 4 and a half hour drive.

Might be a good idea to go to the Welcome Wagon area and introduce yourself.   ;)

This sounds like a fun show,  reminds me of the Stereophile expo shows of the 90s.  Unfortunately I will be in Sandwich England that week so there goes that.  But wish I could join Scott and Todd on this.
