He did.  The live feed was interesting; for a bit.

The tune there was a process.  A long process.  Tuner was slow and methodical.  Count on being there all day long if Howie's experience was any indication.  While Howie did often have good first impressions of vendors he dealt with that changed as time enlightened his experience I don't remember that being the case with the shop in Maine.  Howie was always looking for the next best/biggest/meanest/best smelling thing but I don't remember anything bad about the tuning experience in Maine.  It was a shop that did seem to earn its bones.
