If Anyone wants to go but due to finances feel they can't, if you don't mind a couch or cot I can let a couple of you stay at my Apt to help aliviate some cost. | ||

Look over some of the old threads announcing earlier gatherings, though, and you'll see all manner of tangents and useless asides. It's all part of the fun & close friendships many of us share, and a way to let off steam in anticipation of the event. Eventually, folks get back on topic (only to go off, then back on, etc.). | ||

Joined: February 2004 Posts: 2487 | I am sure Alan has me down Mark, my response was a while before this thread was even posted. Several of us responded in the last thread not just myself. I don't plan to get a room and I think Alan needs to give the people at the Hotel an idea of the number people traveling who need a room ASAP to reserve the space and the rooms. From there I suppose as it gets closer credit cards will be needed o reserve rooms officially. But what do I know I have not organized one of these before. I suppose a lot of us were thinking there might be a Factory thing anyway this year and had not seriously considered a gathering. I have no Gig's for this weekend so far and don't plan to take any unless they are lucrative. Even then I can find time to run out for a few hours. It is a 2 1/2 hour drive for me. | ||

Joined: March 2005 Posts: 12750 Location: Boise, Idaho | How nice it would be if I was within a 2 1/2 hour drive rather than 2 days of flying. I checked on flights, but will have to stay closer this year. We'll be spending a week in Vermont in the summer of 2011, so maybe I'll see some of you guys and the Northeast for the first time then. | ||
