Agreed!  I'm always happy to help organize it, too!

I agree with this one, too.  Sorry, but I *really* don't care for country
music much.  Meeting other FML members is a powerful incentive to go ...
but the country music is a powerful deterrent.  I'd probably go anyway, but
I would far prefer WDW.

New York City IS an FFZ, BTW.  Otherwise I think this idea is excellent,
too!
