This is more alive in some ways because we're not talking hypothetical events.

I don't remember talking about current events with August. He would always talk about what he was writing.

Are we talking criteria for new events? Do we want events to wait six months? My concern is this, we don't have the money; it's taxpayers money.

I think it's good for the players. I don't see the events as really competing against each other; it's more like they're working in conjunction. I wouldn't mind if the same thing occurred in more places.

We're staying flexible and just make decisions as events unfold.

If he sees a talented tap dancer at one of those events or at the open jams we have, he might ask them to come back for another audition.
