No, I haven't heard anything other than when some folks "can't" do it. We are commited elsewhere on the weekends of 7-9 October (serious parties) and 14-16 October (Dingolfing Plant tour).

We're game for any other weekend after those. Just post a time/times

Regards,

Santiago.

I'm sorry i don't have time this weekend, but i'll ask my son ( btw i always use his acount for posting) if he has any time.
He almost uses my car more then me so he'd probably like it...

edit: no he isn't home this weekend, sorry. But maybe we could meet up at a BMW dealer overthere, the NAV knows to find it

I have an idea: There's a "Blues Estafette" at the Muziekzentrum Vrendenburg in Utrecht on Sunday the 13th of November. This is billed as "Europe's premier Blues event, featuring 12 hours of live music in two stages" Info at: +31 (0) 30231 4544.

How about an E60 meet somewhere in Utrecht, on Saturday the 12th? Those of us interested in the Blues event can meet there on Sunday. We'll probably come, get a hotel room, enjoy the cars and the good company on Saturday and then chill at the Blues festival on Sunday.

What do you all think about the date?

Regards, Santiago

Hey Santiago that sounds great!!! We are in if there will be. Could you look for a hotel somewhere near, and do we need tickets for the concert.

I will call the place and see. I suppose we'd need tickets. We'll look on line for a hotel, and post what I find. If there's no E60 meeting, I may come anyway. You're the only one who's responded to this idea so far but it's still a while away.

That should be a killer festival in itself. I'm hoping to hit the Montreaux Jazz festival as well next year.

Best Regards, Santiago

Sorry, the festival was LAST YEAR. So much for current information in the "Welcome to Europe" Army booklet.

I e-mailed this morning and they responded that the last Blues Estafette (the 25th one) was held in November of 2004.

That leaves the Utrecht meeting "dateless" again.

I'm open for other dates - or we can keep the 13th as a date for the meet regardless.
