Holy crap! I'll be in STL those exact days!

I'll be doing other things with friends during that time, but I just might be able to sneak away for an event or two.

P.S. Now I've got Judy Garland's voice stuck in my head...

Putting it in my calendar, and hope I can confirm either way as we get closer to the date!

I've never been to that part of the USA.

I'll put myself down as confirmed. The weekend looks good and it should be easy to find a cheap airfare down there.

Never been to St. Louis (or Missouri, for that matter) and this would be a perfect opportunity. I'll pencil this in.
