October 12 and 13 in Chicago.

Darn, I'm going to miss Vegas!!!! So's the wife

Oh well, guess I'll go anyway!!

That's a short drive for you, John! See you there!

I saw Mark and me in the promotional video! John, where were you?

I was in the back row with Scott. You know my image doesn't photograph.

We'll probably fly -- driving in Chicago doesn't appeal to me - plus they charge something like $40 a night to park and stay in their hotels over there. Bring lots of $$ - - Chicago ain't cheap. But I am - so we'll just probably stay Thursday and Friday nite and come home Sat night -- unless we got something planned. Chitown ranks right up there with NYC and LA (not Lower Alabama) on my least favorite places to go.

I obviously have not looked in the right spot for information on this. Can someone share a link?

 

[MT Stringer]

Chicago? Not for me.

 

[honesttjohn]

Mike,

Not even to meet us???????

Certainly not my first choice of places.

 

[Gary Salisbury]

Chicago? Really? Better bring your body armor.

Vectric sent out a priority booking message to the 2017 conference attendees. Everyone else can register after January 15th.

That's what I am talking about!

John I will start booking restaurants with black napkins

 

[honesttjohn]

That means you're attending, Mark??

I'll start saving the Burger King and Subway coupons.

Debra's laughing. Guess she's coming along.

 

[Scottart]

i will likely pass on 2018, unless the agenda is killer. I will check again in January, still haven't digested all the changes in 9.0..

 

[edison auto]

I can't find a link either and did not get the email either

 

[4DThinker]

Only previous attendees got the email. Apparently a general announcement/link will come Jan 15.

 

[honesttjohn]

Check your email Mark

 

[edison auto]

Got it, booked it and booked hotel. Coming in 2days early and leaving on Sunday. Booking restaurants with black napkins.

 

[honesttjohn]

What the heck you going to do coming in 2 days early? Oh, I think I know ..... Mama's going shopping. This is going to cost you, Mark. We'll be coming in with a fistful of Subway, Burger King, and Taco Bell coupons to help you out!!

 

[Gary Salisbury]

If there was a massive email or letter writing campaign, maybe they would consider going back to Las Vegas.

 

[honesttjohn]

Too late I think. This is the earliest they've announced the US site, so I tend to believe there's a lot of details already being worked out.

 

[honesttjohn]

Just talked to the hotel. Rooms are at a premium for those dates. You have to go thru Vectric for a guaranteed room as it stands now. And when they're gone that's it for that hotel. Must be a convention or something going on at the same time. Couldn't even book a Delta flight out that Saturday nite back to Detroit. All sold out. Ended up on American.

This ain't gonna be cheap. And I HATE Chicago. Sure not my top ten choice.
