So I went to my first National and had a great experience.
But now my relatively local shows pale in comparison.
So the question is - are there larger regional shows other than the East Coast National that happen annually?
Or am I stuck waiting until AC?

Show is about 2 hours away for me. Usually worth the effort. Its roots go back to the 1980s, when the show was one you did not want to miss.

I second Rob's recommendation. The Strongsville show is always a good one.
There is also a pretty good show in Pittsburgh (at Robert Morris College) every year in May.

Fanatics Shows in Chicago in March and November are close to your Michigan home. I think they have them in Philly and in Virginia as well. Tri Star in Houston is usually good in February and I believe June.

Don't forget the GBSCC shows (Boston).

Twice a year in the CNY region (Syracuse, NY) there's a fairly large show which usually has a decent selection of pre-war. :)

Definitely! You can skip the Tri-Star shows in Boston (Maynard MA), unless you want autographs
