I'm up for the Big B, and even sneaking more than 4 in a room if we can hack it...

I'd also love to see the Blue Men.

Have we settled on a date? I'm personally running out of weekends:

Weekend of May 3--this weekend, got plans
Weekend of May 10--doable if we can get decent rates
Weekend of May 17--its a wild weekend of Mormon debauchery in Salt Lake City, Utah!
Weekend of May 24--Memorial day, don't have plans, but rates could be higher
Weekend of May 31--ok with me

What are you guys thinking??
