    I was leaning towards not getting tickets since I'd have to take time off work and be away from the family (in addition to being away the next day due to DLD), but the cost definitely helped push this one over the edge. Good luck to all trying to get tickets and have a great time!

    Is it me or do they not list the 7 BA drafts that are going to be available?

    Definitely trying to weed people out. And make money; there will still be plenty buying these.

    I got unlucky for Dark Lord Day but considered coming out for this. Not sure I can pull the trigger.

    LOE has a session prior to the two public sessions. I'll be interested to see how much Cognac is even left for the 1st public session.

    Went to 18th Street the day after the Massacre last year and was able to purchase all the bottles except Bitch B Crazy. Pretty disappointed in the price jack.

    (All of which will be coming to DLD day this year or a bottle share on Friday night. )

    For some reason I'm not seeing an actual ticket price, just bottle prices. Anybody want to clue me in?

    Is this in Hammond or Gary? The price is turning me off this but Gary would definitely turn me off.

    My initial disappointment that I will be out of town for this event has now subsided. :slight_smile:

    Looks like $70, which seems really steep for a handful of 5oz pours and a glass to me. I wanted to go, but may pass now at that price.

    Anyone remember how much pours were last year? I only remember that they weren't cheap!
