Hey Anne W., if you're around, can you email me at my profile address? I'd like to work out the dates of my stay so I can book my flight, but I don't want to overstay my welcome with you. Thanks!

F2F 2: Is there anybody here that hasn't slept together?
Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: New Orleans! May 20-22, 2005!
Yes, yes! The garden patio! I so hope it doesn't rain. Any excuse to eat outdoors (so says the tired New Englander, looking at her thermometer and tapping her foot impatiently, waiting for spring to really arrive).
Ok, I've booked my accommodation, Friday and Saturday night. It's all good. Last time I was staying in a hotel on my own was (IIRC) when I went to San Diego to present a paper at the Valuation Actuaries Symposium. It was a curious mixture of missing Bec and, in the words of Xander, liking the quiet. (Also when I started watching Adult Swim.)
Kate, insent.
AV equipment for the hospitality suite?
Amps etc.for the music?
I'll be bringing a laptop with a ton of music but can't help with the gear as it's kinda outta my home base this year.
One for the things-people-might-want-to-do list:
The National Gallery of Art is now showing a special exhibit on Courtly Art of the Maya. The weekend of the F2F, there'll be a number of programs relating to Mexico.
No idea on the details, and no idea why the program isn't closer to Cinco de Mayo.
I can put out some feelers for a P.A. if no localistas have any connections. I got us a good one in Chicago.
if no localistas have any connections.
You know I might. What exactly would we need? (i'm technotarded but am in a band and know a ton of people who know about equipment and stuff)
An amp/mixer, microphone, two decent-sized speakers, and all the necessary cords/wires. The speakers should be big enough to handle the room. I haven't seen the room, so I can't say for sure how big. If you know of an equipment rental place in the area, you might just call them and ask what P.A. packages they have. As a point of comparison, the one in Chicago cost $100 for the day.
I'm also going to need a small to medium sized guitar amp for my theremin.

I'm almost certain I can get this for you from my guitarist. I'll check with him. And I'll check about the other equipment.
