PBMG at SEMA 2011 - Day 3 pictures


Here we go again with Day 3 here at SEMA in Las Vegas!

The way each day starts out at a show like this is we all arrive early to freshen up the booth, that is make sure all the displays look good, re-stock business cards and catalogs, etc.

The show starts at 9:00am so most the people working a booth will get here at 8:00am to get their booths ready before the crowds show up. This is also a good time to walk around and either get pictures or check out products if you have the right credentials to get into the various halls before 9:00am.

So as we're setting up this morning, one person with the right credentials to get in before the crowds is Bryan Fuller from Two Guys Garage! I've worked with Bryan for the last 2 years on doing how-to segments and he's always a lot of fun to work with. While he was here Yancy took our picture and then I autographed my new book for him...




Yancy just powered up his camera and went out to take more pictures and as soon as he returns I'll add them to this thread...

Just out to lunch with some co-workers and had this exact conversation. So many of us get caught up working a job because of other reasons & it not being your passion. However, in today's economy, if you're working, you're grateful for gainful employment.

I envy people who make a living from passion.

Isn't great to be able to enjoy your work so much!!

Our friends Bob and Mr. Suby from Flex were demonstrating all three polishers including the PE14-2-150.



Pockets and Steve from Poorboy's World also stopped by to say hello and they even brought samples of their newest polish, Master Cut Compound.



I was busy holding down the Wolfgang booth throughout the show demonstrating Wolfgang's Total Swirl Remover, Finishing Glaze and Fuzion carnauba polymer wax.



Swirls? What swirls?



Max and one of our Australian distributors.

The show has been a blast so far and we've had quite a few forum members stop by and say hello including Garry Dean and Jeff (aka: CanMustang).

I have to get back to work but stay tuned for updates!
