Remain calm.
That is the most important thing to remember - remain calm. The instruments are beginning to fly out of setup. It won't be long for anyone now.
As a public service, I offer these tips:
*Remain calm.
*Protect basses before people.
*Evacuate basses promptly whenever you hear an alarm or are otherwise instructed that something bad might happen to your bass.
*Obey all qualified personnel, including but not limited to Dargin, BP, Dudley, Derek, Beth and that kind of asshat guy, what's his name, the guitar player, you know who I mean. No, not Jon - the other guy.
*Follow instructions from the official set-up guide and refer often to the Forum FAQ.
*Once your DD has arrived, post photos at the assigned location and check-in with your moderator as soon as possible.
*If delivery takes place during the week-end or at night, notify Code Monkey as soon as possible. PM me for his cellphone.
*After the UPS guy is gone, fill out an Instrument Registration Form and claim to have purchased your instrument from "Dargie's Bait Shop".
Hope this helps.

Low expectations are the way to go.

Hey, I’ve heard some Dargie Delight rumors, gossip and out right HS*!
I don’t believe any of this, but I’ve over heard a few things at a BBB** meeting last week…
Rumor #1
DD necks are dipped in olive oil. And it’s not virgin olive oil either!
Rumor #2
The sparkles in the DD paint come from ground up chrome lug nut covers off of Rodney Crowell tour bus. There have been 37 police reports of chrome lug nut covers missing and the only evidence left behind at each scene is a “smiley face” made out of Ketel One bottle caps.
Rumor #3
The color Green has been proven by the National Institute of Science to be a natural aphrodisiac and the DD shade of green especially excites human females, the North American grey squirrel and bulls… be careful at your next rodeo gig!
*HS derives from Horse Shi* and differs from BS by being BS plus insulting, in that “you think I’m that stupid to believe that!”
** BBB- “Bass Brothers of Boom” A secret drinking fraternity that meets occasionally behind the Pizza Hut, off College Road.

Actually Chuckles you are close
The martini inlays are sctually edible. Dargin is a food minaturist in his spare time and has perfected the "Micro Olive" he had this ready for a long time but discovered the micro pimento was a bitch. SOme of you lucky ones will get your dargie delight with Blue Cheese Stufed olives in your inlay and some pickled garlic. At the next open house we are going to have a martini inlay eating contest. Of course the inlays will be glued with special San Luis wind dried vodka glue, except for a few lucky Bombay glue ones. You cannont specify when you order vodka glue or Gin it is the luck of he draw.
I cant wait to watch all of you with your basses on the set up table, Dudley Gimpel Bibbs on ready to set an inlay record like that japanese fellow that can eat a thousand Nathans Hot Dogs in 38 seconds.

Best. Post. Ever. Especially the part about not being able to specify vodka or gin. It's funny because it's true.
LOLOLOLOL!
LOL!
I'm not complaining, nor do I want to debate the true martini as being gin or vodka, but I sure hope mine is vodka!
