I definitely can't afford to fly there for this, but I might be able to tour to Seattle by the time this happens. It depends on how much work I get done in the immediate future. Put me down as a definite maybe.

Lunkhead just informed me of this. I will be there, 90% sure. I live about 2 miles from Ballard.

Ah, but will you be on the roster, or in the audience? Inquiring minds want to know? Like me. I have plans to make...

If it helps we can get everyone to slow their brains down to half-speed so that you sound twice as fast.

So, I have trolled the crap out of previous posts on past years' live events, and I gather sidefight stuff is ok...? Looking through what we have, it turns out all our good material was in the sidefights. I'm not looking forward to having to write new stuff for titles before Seattle so that we can come up with a set list.

Probably audience only. Someday I will have the courage to perform live, and that could even be for this, but since you have plans to make, I can't guarantee it.

You will not be evicted for performing sidefight material.

That said, it's awesome fun to take part in the live fight.

Oh, we will be in on the live fight title, make no mistake about that. There's just not enough good material in our repertoire without digging into sidefight stuff.

Erin and I bought our tickets. We're going to be in town Wednesday through Monday, I think (or was it till Tuesday?). Something like that anyway. Yay! I'm very excited. I don't know if I've been back to Seattle since the 2008 West Coast Tour. So long ago! I can't wait.

Downtown is very central to Seattle's public transit system...you can get just about anywhere from there. Staying right in the downtown core can get pricey, but (like anywhere), you can find stuff if you look. I suppose it might also depend on where the gigs are going to be.
