    Thank you King Street

    After what has been a truely fantastic weekend, I would like to say a big thank you to everyone at King Street. Both Friday and Saturday evenings were wonderful, and very well organised. We were all looked after superbly by the staff and it was a pleasure to be able to attend. It was also great to be able to put some faces to names of other Beoworlders.

    P.S. Hope all went well for the family day you were holding today.

    Re: Thank you King Street

    Absolutely Craig, it was a delightful evening, with Martin Simpson providing a stunning performance and hospitality from Dave and his colleagues at King Street that was really second to none!

    It was nice to meet and chat with you Craig, and the curator of the B&o Museum JandyT!, just remind me of the opening times again AndyLaughing

     

    My deepest thanks again to all at King Street, I look forward to future events.

     

    Kind regards

    Re: Thank you King Street

    Must have been the red wine Andy! By the way Craig I will send you a Jpeg of the Roku Radio Sound pinnacle
    device, it fits in well with B&o and is very versatile.

    Re: Thank you King Street

    Thanks to the several Beoworlders who attended our very first in-store gigs (although it went so well, that there may be more - watch this space ! )  - your support is appreciated - you  know who you are Yes -  thumbs up

    We had a great, if long,  weekend and all the musicians who played were fabulous.

     It goes without saying that Martin Simpson was incredible - that talent, using those guitars, through those speakers - it was always going too be good, but on the day it was truly inspiring.  A real treat for everyone there - and Martin enjoyed the event too- he told me after the sound was far and away the best he had played through - "like a warm bath" was how he described the sound the Beolab 5's gave his guitars.  We have a new Beoconvert ...

     The students from Chet's were also very very good on Friday - even my digi piano sounded great via Lab 9's, and I'm pleased to report we have raised $600 for Chets in the auction. 

    And yes.....the battle of wills continues.... and AndyT did buy something from Ian !!

    Best Regards

    David

    Re: Thank you King Street

    I will echo Lee's thoughts here, having attended one of King Streets events myself I can only say they are the most welcoming & hospitable dealer I have ever had the good fortune to meet. I would recommend anyone to attend one of their next gatherings.

    I would also like to thank them for the support they have shown Beoworld over our first year.
