OK - it's a few months off yet....but I've just been given permission to attend from the boss

I have a shopping list as well, not least of all a PA which hasn't yet been released, goes against all of my personal preferences but may well be lighter and more powerful than my Yammy 8/12 combo (and it's not the DB system). Having seen YouTube videos and reviews, I may be persuaded to buy a singing drainpipe system (the one I'm looking at ticks a LOT of boxes)

Who else is going this year bearing in mind it's moved to October, and what were the latest thoughts on drinking/sleeping/hangover arrangements?
