Im in manhattan if anyone ever ends up wanting to do something in the boroughs
I live up the block lol. Let me know if this happensGuys, I work in a large building in Times Square that has ample space to host us on a weekend. Not a full-on AKFest, but more of a Satellite Hang. Obviously there are issues with getting gear there but there is a parking garage right next door if you decided to drive. It's probably less than $500/hour to park there. I figure the location is pretty central (if you don't know where it is, you're not invited).
It doesn't really entail anything in particular. Different meets, people bring refreshments, (or possibly cups, plates, napkins whatever) you can bring gear to demonstrate and or sell (also media and stuff). My personal philosophy is don't bring anything large or heavy unless you have a prearranged deal (that's not a rule, just sort of prudent).
That's cool! i'm in that area a lot i never knew that was there. I have a bit of a long commute. Usually i'm just trying to get out of Dodge.There's also an audio store (J and V?) a block away, plus the headphones store on 46th street, so we could include those vendors in our little meet.
