(...) I have to say, I really hope that it's a *single* west coast event. If there's 1 west coast event, there's a good chance I'll go to it. If there are 2, I probably won't end up going to either, which is kinda sad, but just the way it is. I'd be (...) (25 years ago, 17-Jul-01, to lugnet.events)
