venue

[chhotii]

Various calls and e-mails have gone to the Armory. They do not seem to be in correspondence mode on the weekends.

However, I have just had a completely insane thought: the Somerville Theater! Considering how important the Sci-Fi movie marathon was to him (at least until recently, when everything changed), this would perhaps be fitting. Don't they have a smaller theater space?

Someone, either tell me that I have gone insane, or find out what this would cost.

I have the option to contact Q to talk about the UU church in Arlington. This would be a more traditional-looking option, but with the Jesus sauce on the side. Since Rich, as far as I know, never stepped foot into the UU church in Arlington, I'd rather that that be kind of last resort option.

Oh, to have venue settled, so we know when and where. I am impatient.

What rmd said.

We should check into the theater; especially important is their minimum time allotment (which applies to any venue). Is it 4 hours? 2 hours? How much? When can we get into the space? I would think we could investigate tomorrow.

There will need to be some set-up time for sound gear, pictures, slide show, etc, as well as teardown. The memorial celebration should be in the hour and a half to two hour range, with plenty of opportunity for more music and stories back at the house. We came have a set up crew and a tear down crew so you and the rest of the family can concentrate on seeing people and accepting condolences and stories.
