The more lead time we can get the better, it gives us time to get tickets printed and details arranged, more promotion done etc, etc.
Maybe go to Dec 22nd and have a Christmas / Winter-een-mas** theme? Also themes are nice to work with and $50 at the dollar store will spruce up the place just nice! G Mike ** According to the brilliant guys at Ctrlaltdel-online.com, "Winter-een-mas, in it's essence, is a holiday for gamers. It is a celebration of games and the gamers who play them. Video games allow us to do things, go places, see stuff that we couldn't do in real life. They can be an escape from reality, a release after a long day, a fun activity with friends, or just an enjoyable way to pass time. They give us a lot of entertainment. So why shouldn't they be celebrated? And in the same spirit, gamers themselves are extraordinary people. There are millions of people world-wide that enjoy video games. Some are hardcore fanatics, some are casual gamers. But we are all part of the same community, and it's a community to be proud of. The Winter-een-mas season lasts all of January, with the actual holiday lasting seven days, January 25-31." Happy Winter-een-mas!
