Pitty-Party for me...

CRAP! The good news for me, is I will be performing this year with my band at the NAMM show down in Nashville. The NAMM show is a Music Manufacturer's trade-show (instruments, Fender, Tama, Ibanez, Roland, ProTools, etc.). It should prove to be fun and exciting.



Bad news...? SAME TIME AS MWNY!!!! I fly-out of town DURING the frickin' KEYNOTE. My flight is around 9:am that Wednesday... and for the most part, I will not have access to a computer while down there... unless I can find one somewhere... but all-in-all... I won't get to see the real-deal until I return that Sunday. Grrr...!



*sigh* - I know there's nothing anyone here can do to help me... but I just needed to "vent" to people that would understand my pain.



Thanks.

    To elaborate... normally I watch the keynotes full-screen on my 19" monitor live... for some reason, with my DSL connection... I never seem to have the problems that OTHERS complain about with the Keynote streams... I have never been "Bumped" or lost connection... on few occasions, I have had a few frames drop from video while the audio stays consistent, but other than that... I always get a great connection.



    Man... now I'm really bummed. I'm gonna miss the opportunity catch a possible "Oh, and one more thing..." in real-time.







    Are the Apple stores gonna display the Keynote in their "Theaters"...?

    Well, I am reminded of what I did when lost in detroid and in need of a map.



    I walked into a Circuit City, went to MapQuest on one of their internet demo machines, and got the info I needed.



    I'm sure a similar strategy could be used to get apple news.

    yeah... I'm sure I can "hit the site" when it's all said and done... but I also want to view the stream... which requires a decent connection and an hour or two to kill... not something CompUSA can provide.







    DAMN! I just checked... no Apple store in Nashville... bummer.
