Re: MACKAY SHOW 2009

Josh, The closest show that Bell's do to Rocky is Emerald. The only problem is that its on the same time that Rocky's on.That is if it ever gets on the road next year.

Re: My Videos

Good shot there Top Gunner, the only fault I've found is in your data and amazingly HUSS hasn't picked up on it....especially on the Troika and Ranger. Hurricane, well done job on it, as we know anything with large degree of movement is difficult to film clearly. Keep up the good work... can't wait ...

Re: SHOWMANS CAPS FOR SALE.

They are a copy of the IAPPA Trade & Convention Show caps that were available to each member of IAPPA who attended in 2005 & 2006. If you want an Australian Showman's cap you ought to try and see if you can obtain the SGA Centenary Cap.
