Thread: New England Razor Connection, NERACON 2010

New England Razor Connection, NERACON 2010 is on!!!

When: Saturday, November 13th

Where: Waltham, MA

I just got the word from Alraz that he was able to secure a room in Waltham, MA for us to hold a New England razor gathering.
We hope to have a few surprise guests there that are heavy hitters in the straight razor shaving world.
More details about the gathering will follow, I just wanted to get the announcement out there so that you guys could pencil in the date.
We hope to see you there!

Sounds great! I'm in!

Fantastic! I've been thinking about setting up something local and I'm sure much smaller for CT, but I'm definitely interested! Looking forward to more details!

Oh man, too bad I will be away on vacation that week! You guys are doing a great job putting this together. Maybe next time.

I've got it penciled in on my calendar. I'll see if I can make the trip down, but I dunno.

Anyone know somewhere cheap to spend a night in the area?

Sounds good. Keep me in the loop.

I've been in contact with Robert Williams, maker of beautiful custom razors, about coming up to the show and he's informed me that there is about a 60% chance that he may be able to come.

We will have our very own Alraz there to put on a lathering demonstration.
He will also have some of his world famous "The Bomb" shaving cream,
pre shave oils, and aftershave balms and splashes for sale.

We plan to have some door prizes there as well.
We are working out the final details and will post them as I find out.

I've been emailing back and forth with another gentleman who also makes beautiful custom razors, Alex Jacques. Alex has informed me that there is about an 80% chance that he will be able to make it on Nov. 13th also.
