Palermo's parties are primarily a chance to do networking with other people. Palermo tends to have these at major Microsoft events such as Tech Ed, PDC, and the MVP Summit (check out the site and you can see). There are generally lots of people standing around chatting while enjoying a drink.Quote:

That is my understanding also. However, the parties (at least those I have been to) are sponsored by corporate vendors in the "space". So there can be good vendor contact that is not available within a Microsoft sponsored environment (ie the Summit itself).Quote:

Alrighty then - party on Garth.

So, who plans to be there in Seattle on Friday evening, on Saturday?...
Who plans any activity for this time?
My first try is (would be) attending Flight Museum, but it is just a subject to discuss /change..., in case some alternative variants will or would be suggested.
Wife and I will be arriving Saturday Afternoon. Checking into one of the smaller Marriott's (Spring Hill Suites) , then moving to Hyatt on Sunday.
And I will be staying in Eighth Avenue Inn till Sunday, then move to Westin.
We are still planning to get together on Wednesday night for dinner. For those of you planning to join us, please drop me a PM. I've been asked to watch my budget, so I'm asking for RSVPs.
Thanks,
Brad!
I am checked in at the Hyatt.
Tomorrow (SUNDAY) morning, I will be the first presenter at the MVP2MVP session.
I welcome everyone to come down [11:45 AM].
Aybody else who is already in town, please PM me and we can set up contact.
