Heh. A lot of the consumption last year took place post-GTG, in the bar, from what I understand. (I left before that myself.)

Not to rub it in, but you did miss out. I'm planning to come to this one, too.

less than 7 months to go. time goes fast people. reserving early helps us all

Well, just booked my flight, so very much looking forward to seeing you all again this year. John, I'll paypal the deposit sometime soon when my account recovers from the flight money going out.

In fact, it will be for two of us because this year I'm bringing MY SISTER!! Just take that as a sign of how much I trust all my bass brothers.

[Papersen]

I`ll try to make my best to be there.
The only problem is my wife is expecting a baby and that will be around August 20th.

That's a hell of a trip for you. But the fact that I'm going for my second year should tell you that it will be worth it. Come along and represent your continent!

If circumstances prevent you coming - well, please accept my early congratulations.

Thanks bassybill.

I`ll try to do my best for sure.
I love NYC and an International GTG will be a blast for me.

Can anybody in the area help me to get some affordable accomodation ?

I booked my flights today

Brussels/Chicago/New Orleans

...and New York/London/Brussels

This year's gonna be quite different....

17 days of mayhem

I know we can and we WILL top the first GTG.

Let's get started !
