Thanks!

Now need to figure out the hotel in NY somewhere as our return is also from JFK (to see nearby places) and which hotel in ROC. Also would be great if you can suggest good rental car companies.

Hotel in Rochester is(scroll to bottom of page everything is there for you) http://mangocon.it/booknow/

Oh YES!! A credit Card is needed for a hold but you do not pay until you arrive and you have 48 hours before your reservation to cancel if needed.

I am not comfortable in handing over CC details over the phone! Is this how it was done last year too?

Yes that is pretty much how you do all transactions in the US for hotels if you call them. I have never had an issue doing it (and do it many many times a year).

Ambarishrh

And my plan for ROC https://goo.gl/pTXOje

Yes, idea is to be in ROC till 29th and then back to NY to be there from 30-6th

Then on 30th to NY and stay there till 5th and 6th back to Dubai

Assuming we it done on time, there will be CD and USB drive copies of State of Unrest's new EP available at MC 2017... Ask nicely and you'll probably get one for free. And stickers, lots of stickers.

Edit: we will also have vinyls, but I won't have them on hand. Shipping can be arranged for any interested parties.

Just confirmed the Japan timeline for this year and it is over prior to MC17, so I will be making it for certain.

@Minion-Queen it is time to figure out if we are going to do some true multi hour deep dives or not this year.
