Hello BP!

Just a quick poll - How many of you out there are planning on attending?

If you haven't bought your tickets, i'd be curious to know what would you say is holding you back?

Look forward to seeing your responses . . .

Might this be a good use of a Google Doc? Greg, you could share the Gdoc with anyone who sends you an email requesting it, and they could add their contact info. That way everyone gets all the additions without you having to send a ton of extra emails. Just a thought.

Either way, just sent you my contact info.

    Thanks for this thread, Arthur. I'm not sure if people know, but Arthur is now helping us with the conference.

    We're trying to determine how many of you are thinking about coming to the event, but who haven't yet bought their passes. If you are one of those people, why haven't you yet?

    Thanks as always for the feedback!

    I'm already booked and may come in a day early if others want to do the same. Josh, is there a list of attendees we have access to? There are a couple BP members I want to check on. Rich

    I'm not missing it for the world.

    I haven't bought my tickets yet though. I think its a part of the BP history of so many people flaking out on something great that has my cautious about jumping in with both feet until its closer to D-day.

    I locked up a spare bedroom from a fellow BP'er. In return I'll be the designated driver since I don't drink. I'm pretty sure some other Phoenicians who are coming have already made a list with the local Denver guys of the local breweries that will be attended. If you see us there, don't be afraid to ask for a ride.

    I've already bought my tickets. Nick, I haven't even thought of touring the local breweries. That's sounds interesting.

    BTW, I'm excited about the line up and topics. Looking forward to meeting everyone in person.

    Nick - This event is happening. There's no turning back at this point for us. We are 100% committed to it. It was great chatting with you on the phone and I appreciate all the support for this thing.

    Maybe we all rent a party bus. Or at least a big 'ol church van. Just be warned, since I'll be the sober one, I'll also be the one taking pics of all of you in your fun drunken state to use as blackmail :)

    I am attending as well (also a speaker), I only have to book my flight at this point, all other arrangements made.

    @Rich - I too will also be arriving a day early and leave the day after.

    For any of you who want to hang out outside the conference, do come early.

    Already booked for two tickets and probably going to book a couple of more. We plan on bringing several other investors with us.

    I've got two tickets booked. Still have to make the other reservations, but we'll probably show up a little early and stay a little later.

    Great to see such a positive response!

    It looks like we might need to create a separate thread about the "pre-party" happening the day before the event????

    We are planning on having a happy hour / possibly night time gathering on Thursday evening. We're looking at Bubba Gumps (across from the hotel and convention center) as the location, but it isn't set in stone yet. They have a great back room we can use. The hotel also has some awesome bars that we can kick it at if that doesn't work. Feel free to start a new thread on it.....

    BTW - As Arthur said, thanks for all the enthusiasm, everyone!

    Also -- I'll let you know who he is later, but we've got another speaker in the mix -- an author of 3 books who is definitely one of the most respected individuals in the business. I'll announce it once we get his paperwork completed.

    I have a double bed room reserved at the Hyatt for the nights of 21-24 if someone is interested in sharing a room and splitting the costs.

    I would love to be able to go, but am not sure if I will be able to come up with the cost. I have a friend in Denver I could stay with & would help with transportation IN Denver, tho!
