    Default Interested in a B&B-Con?

    What could be more fun than Badger & Blade on the internet? Some of us got together to ponder that very question, and after enough Scotch to get the creative juices flowing, that answer was pretty clear, Badger & Blade in real life! Meet-ups and get togethers are nothing new for our community, so we figured we'd like to see it on a grander scale. Loosely, we're thinking a convention in Las Vegas, with vendors, covering shaving naturally, but even some of the gentleman's interest topics that we discuss on a daily basis, like cigars and coffee, as well as some instructional clinics.

    Before we start investing the time and resources into getting the gears cranking, we thought it'd make sense to hear from you, since just like on the web, B&B without its members would be a downright lonely place. So, real quick and informal, if you'd be interested in meeting up in Las Vegas, vote in the poll, and speak up!

    Thanks all!

    The chances I'll be able to attend in person are slim ... but I think its a great idea!

    I look forward to lots of vicarious fun looking at pics and watching videos and reading posts from the actual attendees.

    Now ... if you want to do an East Coast version and hold a Shave-Con in Atlantic City, then I'm in!

    Depending on the timing, I am sadly forced to agree. I will be in CONUS for five weeks next summer, and then after that it's off to Asia for two to three years. As much as I would love to attend, it's harder to justify a ticket from the Far East than it is from the DC area. I really want to, though.

    I would definitely be interested in a Vegas trade show. Definitely would beat the other trade shows I've been to there. What is "Art's Still King"? I voted for it, as I am always in support of a monarchy over these current shenanigans...

    Nope.
    My wife will be going.
    I can see me trying to run off to Vegas without her.
    Yeah, like that's gonna happen!

    As much as I am sure that this would be a lot of fun....... it is a long trip for me and I can't see it happening at the moment.

    Yeah that isn't going to happen. My wife loves Vegas so we'll be doing a lot of dinning at our favorite restaurants.

    I doubt I'd be able to make it, but it sounds like a good time! If I could make it work I'd definitely go.
