I'm booked again - flights and hotel. Anyone else considering it?
2nd year in a new (larger) hotel. Last year the "growing pains" of a move to a new venue seemed pretty minimal and I'm sure a few wrinkles will be ironed out this time around.
I know an audio show in a hotel with a bunch of social odd-balls playing the same Diana Krall album ad infinitum isn't everybody's cup of tea around this place, but I find them interesting and worth the time/effort. As was discussed in a previous thread, there's always some very cool new gear to hear/see, interesting people to talk to, and usually some good new music to add to the library. Yes, the potential for audio douchebaggery is probably high, but if you can find the opportunity not to dwell on that, it can actually be kind of fun.
