Welcome Valerie! In case I've not said it, I really miss being in the US! :) I'll hold back until the attendees are finished, though one thing that might be really nice for Loopstock 2003 would be [a] an internet broadcast, and [b] some capability to play live from elsewhere (if only for the between sets material).
