Road Rally 2008 - dates

[hummingbird]

This came out in a Taxi newsletter today:"Speaking of the Road Rally, we know the dates for this year's event. Please mark your calendar for November 6th through the 9th. If you can swing it, you'd be wise to go home on the 10th, as we'll have great panels and classes that will go until dinnertime on Sunday the 9th."Righto. Got it in the datebook. See ya'll there Hummin'bird PS - Tues is Veteran's Day in the US & Remembrance Day in Canada, some folks might have that off.(Don't ask me where it's going to be. Probably the same place as last year & Taxi prefers we do NOT publish the location on the forum.)

Thanks in advance and I look forward to hearing from youSteveiecb this was in the most recent listing email:Dear Passengers,I was talking to industry veteran and close friend Steven Corn, a couple of days ago. He suggested that I should lay off the Film and TV rants I'm often prone to do. He thinks I'm wearing out my welcome on the subject.My response? "I know I'm overly passionate about it, but it's the smartest thing our members can do, and it doesn't preclude them from pursuing record deals -- it just puts money in their pockets while they're working on that."And then Steve made a brilliant observation!"It's funny. There's a dichotomy, isn't there? People who aren't necessarily firing on all cylinders yet are trying to get record deals, and the people who already HAVE the material that's ready for Film and TV, aren't going AFTER that market."I've always considered Steven to be one of my smartest friends. He's VERY insightful, and his theory on this issue is right on the money. That's why I always have him on main stage panels at the Road Rally. Speaking of the Road Rally, we know the dates for this year's event. Please mark your calendar for November 6th through the 9th. If you can swing it, you'd be wise to go home on the 10th, as we'll have great panels and classes that will go until dinnertime on Sunday the 9th.If you're new to TAXI, and you've never been to a Road Rally, just click the link below, and you'll see why it gives you a TON more value to your membership.

Whoo hoo, just booked my tickets for Road Rally 2008

[che]

We are soooooo hoping to make it again this year. Have been 4 years running and don't wish to break our streak, unless of course we have some major contract come through and we're working feaverishly and cannot pull ourselves away long enough to attend ......back to reality, oh, hopefully we can afford to come again seeing as we are bustin the bank coming to LA for 6 weeks this summer. The dates will work fine....just those dag on plane tickets!!!! and our renewal is due Oct. 25th right before the Rally.

Top of the thread, Vikki listed the dates. I think it's gonna be at the same hotel as last year (they don't like us to post it on the forum, so call the office)Vikki is all-knowing most of the time, tho. You're right about that.
