ROAD TRIP!!!!! Milwaukee

[Art Fawcett]

Gentlemen, I've been released early for good behavior and am traveling next weekend to Milwaukee's "The Brass Rooster" hat shop to work with Kate and John on some new designs, ideas, and frankly, to play a little bit . They have planned a "meet & greet" event on Saturday 5/17/2014 and I am grateful for the opportunity to meet some of my Midwest friends, capture head conforms and talk about the new plans and styles. I look forward to events like these more than you know. SO, if you can make it please reach out to Kate or John McLaughlin at this website http://www.brassrooster.com/

See you there!!!

I think I speak for all of The Brass Rooster when I say we are beyond excited and humbled to have Art coming to our shop, it's going to be a lot of fun and a lot of learning for all involved!

Lucky Loungers in the vicinity!

Hey, I am just over in Racine. I may try and make that!

 

[Geldoc]

Bon voyage, Art.

 

[AtomicEraTom]

Ah, my birthplace. I'd love to make a visit, but doubt I'll be able to!

 

[Art Fawcett]

I'll be happy to see everyone that can make it. Meeting guys whose screen names are familiar is always a good time.

 

[Lotsahats]

Are you making any stops along the way? I'm thinking a literal road trip.

 

[RBH]

Sounds like great fun!
We expect nothing less than plenty of photos!

That looks like a great place, wish we had something like that near here.

I haven't been yet Darvis but you're right, it looks like a great place to visit. The biggest issue that I have on this trip is that I'm going to one of the beer capitals of the country and can't drink beer!!!! damned allergies

 

[fedoracentric]

Well, there is a John B. Stetson bourbon whiskey.

Try that.

At some point in time I too feared, I was getting allergic to beer. Fortunately it turned out to be leather and not beer. Every time I woke up with my shoes on, I had the most terrible headache [huh]

It's a nice complement to a 7XCB.

Not bad stuff, but I only saw it in our local store the one time.

Art, I can say from personal experience the Great Lakes Distillery put out some mighty fine products

Ha, love it. I actually had to go to the liquor store and special order it. I ordered two bottles of the stuff. One to keep, one to drink. Whiskey isn't really my thing, but I thought it was a good pour. It has also been reviewed well by the industry.

I'm planning on going. Maybe dinner at Mader's afterward.
