In the January 25th MMD, Conrad Bladey requested help to "locate
conventions of mechanical music folks near to the Baltimore area:
organizations, meetings, shows, whatever."

The best way to find out about these meetings and participate in
them is to join the Musical Box Society International (www.MSBI.org).
After joining the MBSI, you can join the National Capital Chapter of
the MBSI.  They hold a number of meetings in the Baltimore/Washington
area during the year.
