Many thanks to Steve for organizing the event. Nice to put some faces to
names.

The upside of this was that there was plenty to eat and I got to try
both desserts. <g>

Thanks for organizing it again, Steve, and thanks to Belden for
covering the deadbeats.

Some of the faces don't yet have names attached to them -- corrections
would be appreciated!

Hi All
Anyone at the dinner that left the restaurant hungry is their own fault.
Copious amounts of good food were served. Thanks to Steve Lampen for
organizing IMHO a great evening. I also was able to put faces to some of the
names I see here on RAP. The only problem was the high noise level in the
room that made conversation somewhat difficult. All in all an evening well
spent. This was the first AES show that I have attended since the one in LA
, I think it was 1976 0r 77, where I bought my first Otari MX5050 recorder.

Cheers
George

I'd like to add a very belated thanks to Steve for organising this.
Della and I really enjoyed meeting everyone. We've got a few more
pictures which we'll put up on my JRP music site as soon as possible but
in the meantime I can add a few more names to Len's picturs. Picture 2
shows Zach (Dan Dugan's assistant) on the left with Della Perrett in the
middle and half of Jacques Verdier on the right. Picture 9 shows all of
Jacques with Bob Smith.

And if anyone that Della or I promised to contact is reading this then
we've only just got back from our Canada trip so we're still catching up
on things.

Cheers.

James.

Thanks -- I've updated the captions.

That was Jacques? I didn't recognize him (from the picture or at
dinner). He was one of the grand old men of digital and looks younger
than ever. How does he do that?

I remember one NY AES trekking around with him and another friend from
the Bay area for about an hour looking for a reported great Indian
restaurant called Curry In A Hurry, which we eventually found.

One of the highlights of our stay in SF was when, at the end of the
dinner, Jacques asked Della and I if we had a spare hour for a quick
guided tour of the area. We both piled in to his sports car parked
outside and set off. It ended up being more like 3 hours but we had a
great time seeing the city at night and listening to his anecdotes.

Cheers.

James.
