I don't want to step on raquel's toes, but I do have the hotel's menu bookmarked; it's here, ewith appetizery stuff starting on pg. 12.
Because most of us will have already eaten, my preference would be a selection of cold canapes ($250), a medium fruit and cheese tray ($325, serves 75-125; the smaller one is 25-75 and $250. I'm inclined to go larger because it looks like our guest count will be borderline.), and something from the hot menu, maybe chicken satay? ($250).
Total: $825, plus 30% tax and service ($247.50) comes to $1072.50. Divide that by 70 tickets, and we're at about $15.50. Adding in the $4.50 to cover the bartender and any hudden costs, keeping ticket price at $20, would make sense to me.
Where exactly is the Prom? I need to call the hotel about the P.A. situation, but don't want to sound like a complete ignoramus.
Oh Jon, I asked my guitarist about borrowing his amp and he is willing to but I could tell he was kind of hesitant about letting it out of his sight. He and his amp are deeply, passionately in love. So I was thinking if Holli has one she can lend (she said that, right?) that might be a better option.
OK, thank lisah. I understand. I'm also going to need a straight mic stand. My theremin has a fitting that allows it to mount on one. Have you got one of those you can spare, that no one is emotionally attached to?
GUitariZT FrIEND-N-AMp 4EVAH!!!!!!
Yay Lyra Jane! You have a copy of the contract as well, right? Do we know how much the bartender will be?
So no one knows exactly where the Prom will be?
I'm getting a compact (like a Ford Focus) so there may be luggage on your laps.
It sayd compact, but as a former owner of one, the trunk is HUGE. Provided you are getting a 4 door and not the hatchback. So much room.
I'm also going to need a straight mic stand.
I have one and will gladly lend it to you! I like it but I don't LIKE like it.
Thanks for the car info, Aimée.
I have one and will gladly lend it to you!
Yay! Thanks!
I like it but I don't LIKE like it.
Good, because otherwise that brings on all kinds of "ewwwww".
(sorry)
