[Perform-talk] National Performing Arts agenda 2014

Mon May 26 10:17:12 UTC 2014

Josh, I will not deal with an idiot, so I won't speak to the individual 
you mention.
As far as coordinating, I'll get with Jordy, but I believe this can be 
done. I don't have this sophisticated setup, but it can be done. Tests 
are being conducted, but all have passed up to this piont, so I don't 
see why, unless there's some complication at the hotel, this can't work.

As this year it is an actual competition, having it recorded and streamed would be excellent. So, as I am the coordinator for the performing arts activities, I would be the one that any of that needs to go through. With regard to David's question, if one chooses to perform, the price will be $10. Anyone wishing to enjoy the show as a member of the audience, the cost is still only five dollars. I hope that is more clear for you.
