Clif -- the Blade show was LAST MONTH, so you missed out for this year. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" /> The next one will be in June of 2012, so start making your plans now! As for discount VIP passes, the Busse companies will post a notice on the forums well in advance, so you will have plenty of time to get one. Start saving NOW!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
