So I'm going to It's a Gas, but I'm on the fence about this show. It would seem that it would be impossible to set up at both shows unless one left early from this show. It's a Gas opens at 8:00 a.m. on Friday, so I see vendors thinking about both shows not setting up at Gateway. I see more spectators than vendors. It also gets back to a show starting midweek, people having limited time off from work and another $300+ for food, hotel, gas, etc. I would like to see Bruce and Donna do well, but I don't see it working with It's a Gas being same weekend. 1st year show versus 24th year show. So who is going to the Gateway show and will you go as a vendor or spectator and will you be going to It's a Gas? Thanks, Pat.

I will go as a spectator on the first day, mainly because I have another business trip in the area the day before and can come back through to the show. I was a little puzzled as to why they were making this a three day show in the first place given it was overlapping the It's a Gas show but I guess they had their reasons. If it's like most shows that are more than two days, the third day will be pretty iffy at best, especially if any vendors plan to do both shows. .....GB

So I posed the question about who will be going to this show either as a spectator or as a vendor? Either no one is going or no one wants to post their feelings about attending the show. Someone posted on Facebook how Bruce and Donna are making it where one can come here and then go to It's a Gas. With it's a Gas setup starting at 8:00 a.m. Friday and Gateway show ending at noon Friday, I don't see how as a vendor, you could do both unless you pack up and leave Thursday from Gateway. It's unfortunate it has worked out this way on timing, but I don't believe either show promotor intended for this to happen. I certainly would like to see the Gateway show be a success! Pat.
