Do you have a date yet for this? Those of us hoping to travel in from the states need time to arrange our visas and bribe the border guards.

My <a href="http://www.abcdarian.com/events.html" target =_blank>Events Page </a>is up and running.

If you want to create a web page for the UK event I would be more than happy to link to it. Here is the event page I'm creating for the <a href="http://www.abcdarian.com/sfla.html" target =_blank>LA event</a>.

I think abcd confused matters when he mentioned the LA Event in the UK Event thread... I think yth means the LA Event.

Train of thought: yth is british right? - therefore I assumed she was talking about attending the UK one.

I just mentioned the LA event as a reference for the sort of web page the UK crowd might create to promote the event. (Although if she was talking about attending the LA show then she would DEFINITELY have to play a song or two).

no, i'm not in the uk at the moment, and my visit will end february 28th.
if songfight MN was around the end of april, i might be able to attend that--and possibly even figure out some way to perform, but the dates just aren't working out.

alas!

My wife just called (I'm at work) and said, "Were you expecting some kind of package from England?"

Hooray! Can't wait to check it out. I'm going straight to a show in Franconia tonight, though, so it'll have to be a Saturday matinee viewing. Thanks again for sending it along!!

EDIT: I've gotten a chance to view the J$ and Kamakura sets, and I'm very impressed, boys. It looks like it was great fun, and I wish I could have been there. I get to watch the rest later this week, I think, and I'll give my full review then.

We may well have to have a very in depth discussion on the many logistical concerns, perhaps at a hostelry... J$?
