:? :shock: - (big "gulp!"... not the drink)...
...just booked the 5-nites @ the Westin LAX (Nov.5-10), and excitedly looking forward
to seeing what it's all about.
Also: excited to meet & have a little hangout-n-maybe-jam-time with some of my never-seen-before
Taxi 'heroes & mentors'... it's gonna be here in a blink. ;) :)
LORD willing.
Cheers!

Congrats! I just checked out my frequent flyer miles and I am definitely good to go. First I need to hook up the Mrs. with a decent birthday/anniveral trip to earn some wifey points though. :-)

Peter:

Does the Westin have the "Taxi Road Rally" rate available yet? If so, what is the rate? Last year, it was $123/night. I have reserved flights for Sabrina and I, but haven't booked hotel yet. Just need to say more pennies!

Hey, Lamar (et al);
Yes... at least I know for a single, that's still the rate (+ CA tax), for the Taxi member group discount.

Yes, the rate is available now. But you have to call the hotel directly and ask about it. They may have to find the right person for you to speak with. When I called, the regular reservations person didn't know how to handle it but connected me to someone who did. I guess that's because it's still so early.

fwiw: I had no problem once I mentioned that I was a member calling about the Taxi Road Rally music convention & group discount rate at the top of my conversation. Piece of cake.
