This event could really be a great time for everyone. That means you. All you need is a MP3 player and a sense of humor and I can almost promise a fun time. Let's try to rally up some people and make this happen as a group. They've been doing this event for years and every year it's been a huge success. The brief explanation of this is that a bunch of people get together at one place and time. They've all downloaded MP3s (some years the crowd is evenly divided and has downloaded 1 of 4 MP3s, some years everyone got the same one). Everyone starts them playing at the same time and each one has different instructions for you (and a few hundred other people) to follow which will take you through some games, trips, interactivity with other groups, and general silliness. It's really simple and anyone of any age can participate. Tell a friend and bring some people out!

Are we going to meet up and head into the city together? If so, when and where?

So what if everyone wears a blue t-shirt in an act of outrageous coincidence?

Then the world explodes. Honestly I couldn't tell you, but I'll probably go for one of the lesser used colors like yellow just to do my part.
If you see the video for last year they had a similar situation and were well prepared for it, expecting the yellows to be in least supply.

If anyone is planning to, or even considering coming who hasn't told me yet, please give me a shout here or on email so I can get a rough head count. Thanks.

I have to say that today I had more fun than I've had on a Saturday afternoon in a long time. Serious... everyone should do it next year. Not only was the experiment fun as hell, but the ferry ride back was awesome too.
Picture what it must have been like for the random 6 or 7 people who just happened to be on that ferry with us when 1,000 people started singing "Row Row Row Your Boat" in verses. That wasn't planned... Pete and I started singing and everyone else just joined in... it was a BLAST!!
