Do we need a head count?

Thanks Al, Yes I think we need a count, at least an informal one so we know whether to pursue this or not. So. . . . who's in? I think we need at least 50 people to confirm and more to book!

What a great idea! A cruise before a Buffett show. It doesn't get any better than that. That will be one amazing experience.

My wife and I are in as long as it stays close to that $40 a head number I saw earlier. I am also interested in the open bar possibility, of course the price would go up but I have never met an open bar I didn't get more than my money's worth out of. Open bar is always the best way to go in my opinion.

IrishPirate wrote: Well , whacha think? I think if we do this it would have to be the early sail, the 6-8 is way too late. Could everyone be in town that early? We could do cash bar and about $40 bucks a head. Or should I discuss open bar? I think the rate for that was something like $30 a head + the cost of the sail. It's up to you all!!!
Hi Debbie,

Mr. missingthebeach and I are in! We're arriving in AC on Sat., staying at the Trump next to Boardwalk.

BYO is a great alternative too. That would absolutely keep the costs down.

Private Party? May I ask or is it too private?

Now I am debating about the AC trip, mostly thanks to our Government and the gas prices and I did check if I was insane for a 24hr whirl-wind

Mac

Just a heads up - according to his Myspace page, it looks like Mac will be playing at The Rock N’ Chair in Avalon on Aug. 23.

I doubt we'll go as we should see him the next weekend in Falls Church, but ...

I just saw that. Not going ? 2 shows in 1 week? But how often do you get to see Mac showcase his talents alone? We'll be at both shows. See you there. (you know you're going :wink: )

well, we'll also see him the wednesday night before atlanta ...

And I'm really hoping he shows up for a show in philly ...

But, you're right. we'll probably end up there.

What a week that would be: Mac in NJ, Buffett in AC, three days in Gainesville for Gators vs Hawaii (and the partying that goes with that with friends we only see once or twice during football season), Mac in VA, Buffett in Va.

My liver hurts just thinking of it.
