Excellent suggestions by Avidyarthy! Specially about cellphones. If someone has to take an urgent call, he should at least walk out of the room to take the call and not disturb everyone. Hope this will be taken by everyone in the right spirit.
About the stuff I promised to bring, sorry, I need to walk one step back. Odyssey can't attend. Rest of the stuff will be there. Audio Note IC, Transparent MusicLink Super IC, and Tara Labs speaker cable. If needed they can't be used, if not, no worries.
All the software I have, I have in a HDD. My bad, I forgot to get the SATA-to-USB cable. So someone please get a SATA-TO-USB cable.
If not, no worries. I will have to instead bring my digital transport my tiny-winy-cutie Sony laptop. Will necessiate carrying a backpack but no big deal, I'll do that.
