If it weren't for the transportation problem, I might actually vote for Wisconsin Dells. And with a careful selection of concerts, I might also enjoy a weekend in Branson.
Everything looks good from here... Yes. Yes, this is a fertile land, and we will thrive. We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... 'This Land.' I think we should call it 'your grave!' Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal! Ha ha HA! Mine is an evil laugh! Now die! Oh, no, God! Oh, dear God in heaven!

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: Madison, WI from June 20-22 2008! Official website.

Having just been in Madison, WI, I have to say, that was a lovely lovely location, with lots of walkable entertainment.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
with lots of walkable entertainment.
That's a huge plus, in my book. One thing that'll be interesting is taking a look at my home town from a carless perspective to see how easy/difficult it is to get around via foot and/or public transport.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Ok, Branson would be a hoot.
And a holler, I'd imagine.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I've got a brother in Memphis, so I'd have additional incentive if someone were to pimp that, but I've heard that's not a particularly good walking city. Granted, I heard that about Atlanta too, and where we were for the F2F worked out just fine.
I don't get the Branson thing. And now for some reason I'm earwormed with Shoeless Joe from Hannibal, MO.
Also, there should be a Sizlack, MO. And a Flaming, MO.

Mostly lurking...
I'm also big on Kansas City as an option.

Between St. Louis and Kansas City, . . . I'd choose Dallas.
(All three are places where my DH has family/grew up so they're all linked in my wee brain.)
It would be interesting to see proposals from St. Louis and KC, to see what folks who aren't in-laws do for fun.

Nashville's come up in the past - is that central? Milwaukee's also an option, as is a return to Chicago.
