I'll be there, asking the military band representatives when their euphonium players are going to retire and living off of free chocolate from the fundraiser exhibits.

Thursday Night @ 9:00 in the Grand Ballroom. I'll be in the back row playing with the Illinois State University Wind Symphony. We are doing a special Happy 85th Birthday Karel Husa concert. Husa will be there moderating the concert himself! I'd love to meet any of you and finally be able to put a face with a name (or avatar for that matter.)
Cheers,
Brian

I'll be there trying out all of the instruments, dining in the finer downtown establishments, and catching the symphony on its Thursday or Friday night concert. (Whichever one is not the Christmas concert).
I have to go the Cheesecake Factory again.

What's the deal on attending Midwest? Do you need some kind of clout to get in there or are portions open to non-educators?
