***OFF TOPIC*** And nothing but pure hype, so skip on by if you want.
The last poster behind me here, goes by the name Mayo. His real name is Mark Stern, and he is the IR guy, with Ayotte Music Inc., AYO.A, on the ASE in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Mayo is also a drummer, as is every employee at the factory, well, except for 2 guitarists; they didn't want to get in trouble with the human rights guys by having all drummers. Believe Mayo was also a broker for a number of years, until he got burnt out. If we get some of the people on this thread over, he'll probably burn out his ears pretty quick.
If you are into music, a musician, or have kids that are one or the other, or just want a nice little investment in a great little company, check out the thread that Mayo started. Actually he started about 8 of them, but we got him settled down at one:
Subject 21362
I'm doing this because it is just too cool. An IR guy starts a thread and monitors it, and posts regularly. No need to dig out press releases, they'll be there as quick as you can find them. No need to do much research on the product, just mention Ayotte to any musician, or any 23 year old kid like my daughter that's into concerts and music, they know them, they see them, and they'll say, "Ayotte, they're the best"....the Rolls Royce of drums. But they have more than just the best, and more to come next year.
Yesterday, Marc gave me a tour of the custom drum factory in Vancouver, about a 10 minute drive from my office. Impressive... these guys are craftsmen, and the craftsmen are drummers (well except for the two guitarists), and from the look of everyone there, they love their work, and they love who they work for.
The list of who uses Ayotte, and endorses it, is also real impressive, even if I don't know some of the groups, some of the drummers that play Ayotte work, and play with:
The Stones, Beck, Pearl Jam, Kinnley's, R.E.M., Steely Dan, Cirque de Soleil, David Bowie, Tragically Hip, Joni Mitchell, Peter Gabriel, Paul McCartney, Soundgarden, GREEN DAY, Soul Asylum, Bruce Cockburn, k.d. Lang, Jann Arden, the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra, and on it goes..........
Small float, tightly held, thinly traded so far, audited financials coming within a couple of weeks, some Vancouver press coming within a couple of weeks, patented doodahs, new products coming next year........
Sorry to do this, but I just can't help myself. I bought in today at .32 and .33, after selling off some dogs, and one POS, but no MINE!
If you read all this and don't like it, sorry, but I warned you at the top.
Best regards,
Jim
ps: I think Mayo is thinking of becoming a MINEr, so be nice to him. |
