I just hope they give us a good room this time. I've always loved the Mad but the last event we did there was awful. The waitress was nice but she couldn't buy a clue.

Do they realize we are bringing cameras? If so we will get some back room; They have been known to kick out photographers.

I have booked the VIP room (the one we usually get) but no, I didn't mention we were photographers. It is the room on the second floor, in the alcove, and I don't remember having any issues when in there. I understand there were issues in the past with photographers, but wasn't that involving washrooms or something???

I know! :( I'm hoping that numbers change over the next couple of days. Otherwise I should probably call back and let them know that we're not having the 35 or so people I booked the room for....

Are members who mostly lurk and have been to a total of 1-2 small events allowed? :p This is just up the street from me so I think I could consider coming out.

I'd love to say that I WILL be there, but based on the fact that something severe has happened every time for the past year just before an event I've said yes to, I am hesitant to do so in advance.

If things still look good on Thursday night, Friday morning than I will update and be there!

Anyone going to have any of the TPMG velcro things on them? I'd like 1 or 2!

Yes, I am sure one of us will have some tags there.

A fun night. Had a great time. Was nice to meet some new people and see some old friends. No big flash war tonight but some good conversations. Thanks to Dan for showing some photos from Easter Island.
And I forgot to wish everyone a Happy Holiday and a Merry Christmas :)

Is it on flickr?
If so, view it and above the image there is a "Share this" button. Click that sucker and then select from the drop down html/bbcode.
Copy and paste that text into your post here. :)

And if you don't have flickr, get it! :P
