Song Fight! Live 2024 Mountains and Melodies

[fluffy]

I have to amend my choice to #2 as it turns out I might have a choir performance + wedding to attend on the 21st. (but if there’s a conflict Song Fight takes priority for me.)

Oops, I completely spaced out and forgot that we have tickets to Neil Young on Thursday, July 25th and the Stray Cats on Sunday, July 28th. So I'd like to update my preference to #1 after all. (Sorry!)

[Hoblit]

I'm 3, 2, 1.

Meaning either weekend is fine, I'd prefer the 26th & 27th, but it looks like everything is leaning to the 19th - 20th, which is fine.

It’s official: July 19 and 20 are booked!

Our space: Buntport Theater, https://buntport.com

Meaning rehearsal and performances are in the same place

Awesome!!!!!! Thank you for getting on this. Gonna book my tickets and lodging ASAP.

[Lunkhead]

Yay! Also I updated the first post to have the details.

[fluffy]

I have booked my travel and lodging. Looking forward to dramatic irony doing its thing.

Is it time for the tagline "blank and blank" ideas yet?

(also, nice job on the venue and planning! Glad to see the tradition live on again!)

[Lunkhead]

Jack, will we see you there?

Erin and I bought our plane tickets, Thursday afternoon through Sunday evening.

I’ll be there from Wednesday until the following Tuesday, because that was the cheap flight days (so cheap that I got a first class ticket for the way home because that was still less than coach on any other day, and I deserve to be pampered).

I guess I should see what else there is to do there. Maybe I’ll take a trip down to Colorado Springs, as I know a few folks there.

Maybe! I have a friend who lives in Denver (and Eric's son goes to school there so maybe if he's willing....)

But I should ask. Is there any plan to have another online version as well? Those were fun too (but IRL is the best). Just a suggestion but if you wanted to do an online option, maybe do it Thursday night the 18th before the Friday/Saturday live shows, and that way the people at the live show could all meet and watch/host the virtual show together somewhere? If there's a virtual option, I'd almost definitely at least do that. But I know it's a lot of work. And so is the IRL! Thanks to Jeff and Leah!

[fluffy]

I would have no interest in participating in both. Making a video is a lot of work and doing that while also preparing for the live show would be way more than I can handle.

If there were to be a separate online show it should be, like, a month away from the live show. It's not like there's any travel restrictions when it comes to doing it online anyway.

Also we try to do a live stream of the live show which is what works for folks who can't attend in person.

[Spud]

I will be arriving Thursday morning and exiting Saturday morning. I have a gig in Seattle Saturday night, but I can't miss this completely!

If it it helps, I'll be at the annual Ramjet release party on 20 July, tasting the latest batch of barrel aged stout from Boatrocker.

[roymond]

Booked and loaded. I may have a full set of titles I didn’t submit finish in time.

[fluffy]

I'm looking forward to knowing how long the sets will be so I can plan accordingly!
