Cool Beans. Thanks Tycer.

Sweet, thanks Kevin. 2 days? Wow, that's awesome. I'm going to have to bring my note taking material. I wonder if I can get some continuing education hours for this meetup. LOL!! I'll make sure I bring my brush. Love his card and logo. Rockabilly Barber Shop..... Oh am I going to enjoy this.

At the end of the ramp you need to head west about 150 - 175 yards Shop is on the south side of the road. He is located across the street from a large church in a small white building. Look for the Barber pole out front. I will take a picture of the shop next week.

IMPORTANT NOTE: I would recomend You bring your own brush when getting a shave. Alan has hot foam but I like the cream and brush better. NC. State Law says he can use soap/ Cream with a disposal brush or the customers brush Since he does not stock brushes BYOB.

Glad to know you are coming this is shaping up very well. I am sure that there will be many learning experiences and stories to tell after this one. You did note it will be going on for 2 days?

Kevin

As rickboone has stated in the KY Meetup thread. April 19 in Richmond, KY there is a meetup as well.

May be a great opportunity for those making a long trek to double down.

It's definetely something you don't want to miss. And one day I will learn to spell definetly.

Wanted to introduce myself - from Winston-Salem - heard about this on the B&B board - just getting into Straight Razor shaving - five razors- Zero decent shaves - really looking forward to this -may be the oldest at the meet(68 at that time). Not much to share been wet shaving a few years but wanting to refine my skills and learn more about honing and stropping.

Glad to have you coming. There's a group of guys in your area that meet on a regular basis, just a handful...Maybe one will chime in here. I do think Kevin has been there and perhaps he can help me for the names. Or wait...they meet in Raleigh. I can't recall where that is in relation to you. Nonetheless we will see you at the meet and I will personally see to it you get the help you need to get a decent shave.

We meet in Durham usually and occasionally in Chapel Hill. Winston Salem is an hour and 45 minutes from Durham. We have around 7 people who meet and one from Asheville who comes down for sessions with one or two members learning honing. In fact, the convention is at his workplace.

My count we are at 35.
Make sure to tell all you know! Keep watch of the website, I will be posting hotel info there as soon as I hear from Kevin.
