How about this - it's about time for the Wizard Magic Dave and all the MOTU Hobbits, Elves & assorted Halflings to appear in a blaze of glory at …the Anaheim Convention Center.

I just wanted to let everyone know about the upcoming MOTU Users NAMM Dinner!
You do not have to be a NAMM attendee to go to the dinner, you can bring a friend, date, or anyone you would like.
This year it is Friday Jan. 25, 2013, 6:30p, at The El Torito Restaurant (where else?) 2020 E. Ball Rd., Anaheim, CA 92806. We have a private room at El Torito from 6:30p until closing, so don't worry about being "on Time".
For those attending the NAMM show, we meet at the MOTU booth around 5:45p friday afternoon so that anyone who needs a ride to the dinner can get one. Anyone who doesn't know who I am can just walk up to the handsome guy in a suit standing around the MOTU booth and say "Hi Jim!" That will probably be Jim Cooper, and he can point you towards me.
This will be our 16th!!! annual dinner (we started in the 2nd age), and each year they get bigger and better! The swag this year will of course be very cool and maybe even functional (not sure yet). There are even rumors of manufacturer gift swag! I said rumors...
This is our chance to show & tell the hard working MOTU guys & gals how much we appreciate all their hard work over the past year.
As usual, this is a "no host" affair. What this means: we each pay our own way, plus a little extra to cover our honored guests, the MOTU guys. As it turns out, their Cambridge dollars are no good out here on the left coast. Often we get a guest appearance from some plugin developers as well.
Here's the W,W,W,W,W:
Who: You + the tragically hip MOTU guys
What: Dinner, cocktails, scintillating conversation!
When: Friday, Jan. 25, 2013 6:30pm
Where: El Torito Restaurant, 2020 East Ball Road, Anaheim, CA 92806 (714) 956.4880
Why: Why? Because we like you!
Please respond to this message privately (or not) as an RSVP. It's always good to get a head count for the restaurant.
Hope to see you there!
