Approaching Über Trip Numbers

With our current committed and not yet confirmed attendees, we have 12 Oktoberfestians for the trip. I was informed yesterday that there is a potential for five additional Oktoberfestians for a total of 17! 

This would tie the 17 Oktoberfestians during the 2005 Über Trip. What has this world come to?

To Tent is to be divine

I am in favor of trying to get a table at the tent for one of our nights.  While the reserved table don't have the frothy goodness of the mosh pit,  it would be nice to have a tent seat.

Have we asked Anton if we can get seats????
