I'm thinking of staying at that one, so perhaps it will become the "Official Hotel of the Official Rhythm Section of the Hiwatt Convention."

If it is Official, then it is Official!

FWIW, the Courtyard did a good job last summer and was conveniently located. Except for the part about giving Hiwatt Bob the key to someone else's room :shock: !!!

if everyone is going to be staying at either the Courtyard by Marriot or Days Inn, I will try to get a group discount at both of them.

Can I start getting a head count?

Thanks!!!

I'd prefer the Marriott if you can get a deal.

Without special discounts:
Days Inn $68
Courtyard Marriott $129

Getting tightass Chris to part with any green is always a problem, so the cheaper the better. I'll stay anywhere you can get a group discount, or I can split the cost of one of the bigger rooms with a group of guys. I don't plan on spending much time at the hotel anyway! I'm really looking forward to this years convention and seeing you guys again(and meeting new friends).

+1, The Courtyard was nice last year, I vote for that being the "official convention hotel."

I need a head count. I feel like I am playing poker with the hotels, when they ask how many rooms I will need.
