TechEd '13 closing party was at the Superdome which didn't sound too
good at first. But Drew Brees saved the day by making an appearance
and throwing touchdown passes to the attendees.

showed up, but we left before that. It wasn't the House of Blues, but
it wasn't bad either. When you have 12K people, your options are
limited.

Having never attending TechEd this aging MMS'er is curious to see what
a "Real" closing party looks like ..
MMS's closing party's started off good: Jim Belushi and Dan Akroyd @
House of Blues, Los Lobos @ ESPN Zone, Gaslamp District crawl @ San
Diego ... then they went in the toilet capped off with your
mentioned event L

Just a tip...any conference -- always fly in the day before.
Registration opens early on Monday (7am), but you can register all day
on Sunday. The keynote (Brad) will kick off at 8:30am and you'll not
want to miss this one. Thursday ends when you want it to, depending on
the number of sessions you have planned and potential community events
you want attend. There will be some significant community events each
day (wink, wink). The closing party is from 7:30pm-11:30pm on
Thursday, so you could fly out Thursday afternoon if you want to miss it.
TechEd closing parties are phenomenal (i.e., they spend a LOT of money
on venues, food, and celebrities). But, if you're an aging MMS'er
(like most of us) the closing event is probably not your bag anymore.
Imagine 12,000 people attending the Dr. Seuss-themed closing party at
MMS. I'll be there, of course, but only to cover the community and
social aspects of it.

J
All in due time. I hope to have everything finalized shortly, but we
are carving out a significant presence at the event to help ease
MMS'ers into TechEd.

I'll be there.
Right now about 20% of overall registration are MMS alumni, with about
half of those who have never attended TechEd before. We're working out
the myITforum details and will have more info to share officially soon.

Who is going to TechEd? I am trying to book my trip today. The hotel
rooms around the convention center are *OUTRAGOUSLY* expensive.
$300.00-500.00 per night. My employer isn't going to go for that.
