Quim Gil kindly forwarded this to me. I'd been asking on the GMAE list about this: I fell into an impromptu performance of "Sweet Home Chicago" and "House of the Rising Sun" at Vilanova last year, and I was hoping to do something a little better-planned (on my part at least) this year.
So, yay!
>Of course we're a very organized band and have setup a wiki page for

To which I've posted a couple of relevant updates.
>If you don't believe we rock, have a look at some pictures of our

The band _definitely_ rocked. I'm a witness.
>We need sponsors. In GUADEC2006, Nokia sponsored the equipament that
>we need and we played in their party. How can we handle this for
>GUADEC2007?
Depending on what we're talking about, ACCESS can probably provide something. I need a ballpark figure on what we're talking about, and I don't expect we'll cover it entirely on our own.
>What do you think?
I'm in.
>ps: I'm serious.
Me, too.
