Hi Bob,

It's sad, but true ..... :(

I have been dealing with a serious health problem for the past few months and will be in the middle of treatment during this year's DecFest.

The docs tell me that I will survive, but I'm in pretty rough shape right now and have missed the past two weeks of work ..... and the next few to come. The situation came as quite a surprise ..... but, stuff happens.

The good news is that I am still enjoying music at home thanks to my Decware based audio system and will be in Peoria in spirit.

I hope to put this "bump in the road" behind me and see everyone at the 2009 DecFest.

I will be checking the forum threads as time and health permit ..... 8-)

Best wishes to all ..... and have a great Fest,

Randy

If I did not have to be at work at six AM on Saturday and five Am on Sunday, I'd be there with BOOTS ON. Maybe another time. Looking forward to the wrap-up posts.

I want to thank everyone for the kind thoughts and concerns ..... : )

I would ask that everyone possible attend the 2008 DecFest and have a great time. Steve, DeVon and Bob work very hard every year to make this unique event a success. All of those who have attended in the past know that the DecFest is so much more than a mere "promotional event" ..... it's a true labor of love provided by music lovers for music lovers.

If you have never attended, do yourself a big favor and meet all of the wonderful folks that make each year better than the last.

See you in '09 ......

Randy

I'll never forget when I walked in on Decfest 2005 and you guys were listening to Miss Alison......very nice it was. Her and Plant are not to shabb as of late. However, delaying the Zep Tour. Peace, Stone of Tone
