No, but there was a monthly model/photographer/etc... meeting event going on before I left. It was pretty strong too. I can't believe it all started via a Yahoo Group. lol

Why not you?
What i'm saying is, you'll never accomplish anything if you just sit around waiting for someone else to do it.
All you need is a venue and advertising.

I'd come smile This town is full of awesome talent...
Now I know its not a MM meet up, but there was an alternative model meetup about a month or so ago. It was called from Dusk til Dawn I believe. The turn out was apparently amazing.

MAP kinda just faded away.  For a while it was going strong as you say, but then it just went silent.  It's a shame because the location was great.

Damn...

It was cool, too. I met a lot of good people there. Some snooties too, but hell that's everywhere. I haven't lived in Atlanta since 2002, but i'll be back this summer.

I'm coming to Atlanta on the 25th and 26th of this month. That's on a weekend. Anyone have any plans? There needs to be like one big ole' barbecue or something for everyone to meet up and mingle. I know we have a lot of great cooks in this area...some on MM also!

Probably be there Monday and Tuesday nights, but it's not completely fixed yet.  Depends on when some engine parts get to Dobbins.

Coffee (or beer)?

Hey.  I'd like to do this also.  Why don't those of us who are interested come up with something? I could quite possibly even help organize and promote it, but I am actually outside Atlanta and someone would need to help with finding a location (Where/What type) and with some of the other logistics (What, When, How, etc.).

Would anyone care to discuss things furrther?

This may be interesting.  Yep, MAP is silent these days -- Kristina may have moved or found another job, but it was nice while it lasted.   It would be interesting to have a "meeting" of the talent here.  And Don, you are always welcome!!!!   Love your night shots!!!!

Damn!  You didn't have to bust me in front of everybody!  If people knew that I masquerade as a moral advisor for teens it could ruin my hard-earned reputation as a tactless asshole.  Nice, Greg, real nice.  Besides, they paid my way to DisneyWorld, it was tough to say no...

An accident in my Jeep from a couple of weekends ago has consumed my life.  I'll call you this weekend.
