. From what I looked up online, it looks like the best way for me to get there is to fly into Philadelphia and then take the train for $6-$9. An Uber from Philly is listed as between $30-$45.

That sounds like a way to do it. If you're interested in meeting up at some point before the con, Vegas, let me know.

. It depends on if I am teaching this Summer. If so that Friday is a mandatory day for finals and the last day of the term. I might have to take a red eye that Friday night and meet up with everybody Saturday morning like last year.

If you get there early of course. If not, I'll see you Saturday.

I thought the location was gonna put me out for this year, but the one Musician that I want to see more than anyone else, just happens to be in Philadelphia on the 13th. We’ve been all over the country for music fests & he never plays outside of the west coast. Both of them on the same weekend is gonna be hard to pass up.
