Just to clarify, the address on your ticket is the Congress Hotel, and the 6:30, 6:35, and 7:10 departures are form the Congress Hotel Tap. You may arrive as early as 5 p.m. for the “Real Guitar Heroes” event, but check-in begins at 5:45, and you should check in 40 minutes prior to your designated departure time, or when all prior departure times have been completely checked in.
You will receive a boarding pass with your departure time printed on it to gain admittance to the first bus, and a wristband which will be your pass to clubs and buses for the rest of the evening. If you wish to trade departures with anyone else, you can trade boarding passes at the event, but we will not board anyone on a departure without a boarding pass for that particular departure. If there are no-shows, you can sign up as a “stand-by” and take any remaining vacant seats that resulted from no-shows.
That will keep the event organized. There will be a cash bar, and the kitchen will be open. Here is a PDF of the menu, which also lists drink prices, for your perusal:
The artists will be available for chat, autographs, and of course, CD sales, and we’ll have their CDs playing during the event so you’ll get a preview of the night’s guitar performers.
If you have not printed your ETix out yet, what are you waiting for? 8-) We strongly recommend you do this now to ensure that you can get some support help if there are any issues.
