Re: POLL: Friday-Sunday events vs Thursday-Saturday events

Now, let's throw a wrench into the discussion...

Other than Israel*, what would happen if events were held mid-week? M-W, or something like that? Just to throw out a possible example, using Kettering 1/Kettering 2, it could theoretically be possible to use the same field for three events over a 2-weekend span with enough downtime to make repairs in between (T-S, M-W, F-S).

(Cue angry CD mob with pitchforks and torches for such heresy )


*Because they are already a "midweek" event, by U.S. weeks.
