Studio 54 would be cool, but if we do live performers, I'm not sure how many people can see the show at the same time. Isn't it spread out? We'll talk to everyone and find a new home for this party. And an early starting time is a must.

We have had other artists perform then just rappers by the way. Eek-A-Mouse (reggae), Third World (reggae), Original P (Parliament Funkadelic minus George, funk music), Long Beach Dub Allstars (former Sublime members), DJ Sasha (electronic rave stuff), Fishbone (ska, funk, rock) and I'm sure I'm leaving out others.

We almost had James Brown for this last one. We always try for a live band, but we take the best available artist for the budget. Kind of like a football draft, but with musicians.

Also, I'm declaring a new day of the trade show for the next convention, either the first night or the second night, starting around 9:00 pm, give or take an hour. I doubt we'll try another pool party in Miami, the weather is too unpredictable. I'll be discussing this further with FM to make sure we select the best date, venue and time.

Thanks to all of the other parties that went out of their way not to compete with our party slot, that's big time respect and it is appreciated. The least I can do is let others know our date well in advance to avoid conflict of party interests.
