From my experience, I think it is good to just start having
meetings, whether they are small or not. If you have a small group
that you want to meet, then meet. Then next time, you can organize
more. I know that I often get caught up in the details, but that
small meetings can be a good way to start.

Sorry to hear about your situation, Mike.
It doesn't look like we will get 5 response, but I am still interested. W.r.t. the owner of the Red Line, If we were to reschedule in the first half of January (when my college friends are in town), I'd be able to get 5-10 beer-drinking patrons to show up.
Also, in the future we probably should take this off of pd-list faster. As cool as Chicago is, I'm sure the rest of the list is not interested much in our logistics.

about you guys doing it there, but there concern is only in bringing in a few more customers during the slow hours. It sounded like you
wouldn't really need the whole sound system, just a good set of desktop speakers.Let me know, and I will let them know to expect you.

you are just unable to make it? Or will we have to reschedule/find a new venue?I know of a location that might possibly work for a meeting, but
will have to network a bit to get it going. it's called the Rumble Arts
Center, in Humbolt Park. http://www.rumblearts.com/I'll put out some feelers about it.
Sorry Mike that things aren't going well.

I'm sure we all do things different ways, so I expect to learn a lot just by
seeing someone's project and being able to pepper them with questions/ try it out/be humbly amazed.~Kyle
