Title: Share a booth at Nashville in 2014, anyone?
Post by: longbeard48 on September 09, 2013, 06:32:00 PM
Hey, fellow call makers
It is hard to make any money in a $900 booth selling $30 scratch boxes.  I was thinking that some of you might be in the same boat, so to speak.
If anyone would consider sharing a single booth with me and someone else, let me know.  Perhaps we can make it work.   *cheers*
Tom

Well, I see they are sold out and no one can register for 2015 unless they are exhibitors this year.  So much for little guys having a booth, huh?  ???

It's still early, they'll probably have some cancellations.

hope you can get in. Sorry to hear they are all about the big boys and who could afford it last time but not surprised at all. Kind of like if you have to ask about a price or worry about it you can't afford it and don't need to show up.

You know, some of you little guys that cant get a booth in Nashville should look into coming to Perry, GA for our turkey rama. Its usually the weekend before Nashville. Its a great show,affordable,  but has been losing custom call makers the last few years since they stopped the call makers competition.  Id really love to see some new blood and call makers showing back up. There are a few guys that come so they can pack up and head straight to Nashville the Monday after the show.

You guys come to GA, we will support you.

MSharpe, don't you know the guy who organizes it?

You're right Del. I'd like to see that show get back to where it use to be. Back in the day it was full of custom call makers. They definitely need some new blood. If anyone is interested, shoot me a pm and I'll give you the head guys contact info.

I will have to think about the Perry show but that is a long haul even for me and I am in Tennessee. Might go ahead and at least get the info needed. Thanks for the heads up guys.

I like to see some of those guys that do the State Convention show in Dillard come on down to the Perry show as well.

I missed Perry for the first time last year since I was 15. Im 37. It to me has always been an excellent show. The last few years it has been going down. Would love to see it back to its hey days. I like it because us south GA guys can make it. That stuff up above Atlanta is tough on us with a 6 hour ride.

Looks like everything has worked out for Old Longbeard48.  You can come by and visit Tom, John and Mike at the Mississippi Callmakers Association booth #14.  Mr. E is happy to share a booth with my good friend, and I know that Mike Langley of Headcrusher calls is also.   Attaching a link for the location of all the booths this year at Nationals.

Looking forward to a great time in Nashville Tom and hope to see everyone there.
