twistedcrankcammer Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 I need to see how compelling the activity is before I make an assessment. Will this Pilgrimage steal any goodwill or potential support from Klipsch away from the Hope gathering? Michael, Hope took me 16 hours to drive one way this time and I've been there no less than 3 times. That being said, it is only 2.5 hours to Klipsch headquarters and I have been offered a personal tour by Jim Hunter and it is the same 2.5 hours to the Rock and Roll Hall of fame and I have never bothered making either trip. I guess that shows where my passion lies in music and for PWK! Roger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thaddeus Smith Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 I didn't say I wouldn't go.. But for that distance I need compelling reasons. I would drive 16 hours one way every year for what we experienced at hope. An HQ tour and a group photo op? Meh.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thaddeus Smith Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Will this Pilgrimage steal any goodwill or potential support from Klipsch away from the Hope gathering? Really? How about just another enjoyable event? They have a fixed budget for these types of things, and we're hoping to tap into some of that for Hope 2016. So ya, it's a real concern.

Well if their budget may include flying me out next year then I'm with Michael. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Chad Posted May 8, 2015 Author Administrators Share Posted May 8, 2015 This event won't cut into any sort of the same budget we may have for Hope 2016. I believe it would be covered by a different "bucket". I honestly don't have any other details about this until my call this afternoon. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Chad Posted May 8, 2015 Author Administrators Share Posted May 8, 2015 I'll make an official thread on Monday or early Tuesday, but here's what I know at this point: Through our partnership with the RockHall, we may be able to provide discount bundle tickets to the Museum and (as a bundle) their annual Chef Jam event, the weekend of June 7. https://rockhall.com/event/chef-jam-2015/ - We don't have pricing details yet, but we are considering this as a "Klipsch Fan Pilgrimage to the Rock Hall". We know it's somewhat short notice, which is why we are putting out feelers as soon as we knew of this opportunity. If you've never been to the Rock Hall museum in Cleveland, it is most definitely one of those "bucket list" items for any fan of music. This Chef Jam event sounds like a fun time too. I think the bundle would be a Saturday museum trip and the Chef Jam on Sunday. Stay tuned! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CECAA850 Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 June will be a bugger for me. We're driving 2 hours south of Tampa for my nephews wedding. It's hard to take 2 vacations no matter how small in one month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
