I forwarded the E-mail I got from Steve to everybody I know who might be interested. (Obviously, I didn't send it to Dana, Rocco or Steve). Hopefully, everybody who's going (or even considering going) will get their money in. |

#40 here for 2. I only needed 1 but thought I would pitch in with 2 to help with the cause. I am sure I can find a good cause for the 2nd one. |

Not quite 100% confirmed that Vamps and I will be there, but it's looking good. We will know for sure by Christmas, but we weren't going to take the chance of missing out on the banquet! Hmmm... 42... Obviously this means that Homecoming is the answer to life, the universe, and everything! |

Way to step up!! Read below Hello everyone! This next year will be my first time to make it to Homecoming and i'm very excited to have the chance to finally get out there and meet some of you guys and gals! As many of y'all know we NEED to sell 150 banquet tickets before 12-28-09 to ensure we can reserve the Alpine Valley Resort (which offers a good place for the banquet dinner and concert from Erik's band, as well as cheaper room rates) To help encourage folks to buy there tickets ASAP, XB Lights will be giving away one free light ($205 value!) All who purchase their banquet ticket ON or BEFORE December 28th, 2009 will be included in the drawing for the giveaway. I'm not sure how Rocco, Steve or dana want to handle the drawing/door gifts, but those details will come later. As well, if anyone is interested in purchasing a tail light and would want me to bring it up there to deliver please let me know. Please email me and we can work out the details (including extra $$$$ saving details) Thank You and ride safe!!! -Robert www.xblights.com xblights@yahoo.com Blake has offered that the badweb will cover shipping. Yet another reason to purchase by Dec. 28th |

Here's an Idea: Why not buy a Dinner Reservation for somebody as a Christmas Present? |

I had what looks like a catastrophic power supply failure on the computer hosting our sites this morning. It is a 7 year old dual 1GHZ G4 Macintosh, so go figure. But it gave me no warning whatsoever. I have another Mac(A Mini), that I was eventually going to move everything to anyways. This just speeds up those plans. So the site will be down for a few hours while I get the stuff OFF the Hard drives now. |

...that would explain why buellhomecoming.com didn't work just now... Good luck with the data transfer |

Thanks. The nice thing about Macintoshes are the target disk mode. I can boot from the old computers HD to backup everything perfectly. And by god... It's actually working |

This will be that last "nag" post you'll get from me. I may bump threads back to the top of a page, but no more nagging from me. I will just add some information as it becomes available. I will just write a few things now in hopes to light a fire under the asses of those that are still undecided or figure they'll wait till the last second, or plan on showing up hoping to get in the Banquet. In order to get into the Banquet/Concert you must purchase the Banquet Package BEFORE the Event. We will not be selling the Packages AT Homecoming. It may sound selfish, but I plan on enjoying Homecoming this coming year. That will not include standing outside the banquet waiting for straggles to come and pay. We WILL have wristbands for and a list of those that have paid. The dinner, bar and concert are for those that have paid. It would not be fair to let people that haven't paid in. Sorry but that's the was it has to be. The main point to getting a date set so early was to give people ample time to get time off work and plan for Homecoming. You can still purchase the Package after the December 28th, but we really need people to step up to make our initial 150, or we will lose everything. ALSO, keep in mind there is a legal holding capacity for the hall. It is more than the 300 dinners we started with as we just needed a starting point for Paypal. However, and I will find out soon what it is, there is a finite number of seats available, and once we hit that number, that's it. You're left out. So long story short: -Get you Banquet Package early!! -BANQUET PACKAGE WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE AT HOMECOMING -No one will be allowed at the Banquet without a wristband -There is a certain number of seat available, once sold out, you're S.O.L. -DON'T MISS THIS EVENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I missed last year as I was out of town, and I am still P.O'd. You never know what can/will happen. |

Let me add to what Rocco has said. We do not as of yet have a cut off date for this Dinner/concert package. BUT there will be. At the end of this month I will have a date that will be set by Alpine Valley Resort because they need to know how many they have to prepare for. Usually they have a cut off about 3 week's prior to the Dinner. I'll know all of this at the end of the month as Rocco and I have one more meeting with them this month. So if your up in the air on this and you snooze. You may miss out on one of the best Buell owners experiences you will ever have while being a owner of your Buell. How do I know ????? I've been to 10 of them and it has defined what being a buell owner is. Don't miss this. Thanks Dana aka Bads1 |
