[atlantaprog] Re: Time to come to the aid of our local prog community!

If only I lived in Atlanta!  My whole band is setting
time aside to come up from Macon to make it to
Roguefest, and we are planning to get two hotel rooms
nearby.  If not enough space is found for our visiting
proggers, we would be more than happy to provide
floorspace if they supply sleeping bags. I will also
talk to the guys to see if they are interested in
helping to man the door.  Would it be done in shifts?

Is there going to be another jam at the end of the
show this year?  If there is, any chance of Big Hairy
Monster playing a tune?  I just had to ask!  :)
