[Noisebridge-discuss] I am a very bad person

[Praveen Sinha]

I think it's better to stave this thing off until november if we need to
rather than set us up for failure and have something jank -- it's already
the 21st, so that gives us about 2 weeks to come up with a plan, get it
coordinated and also market/buzz it around - it's best to give the general
public 2 weeks of lead time so they can mark it on the calendars.  That
said, I have total faith in us to pull it off if we are really committed to
seeing it through...

Did someone mention that we have live entertainment we could line up?  Who
is that?  Is it enough to last the night -- if we don't provide booze then
we better have some hella good acts... If we can't get music, maybe a couple
of high profile speakers may be good to get in.

I am available tonight tomorrow to meet up...
