Finale--is it worth it?

[Grim Tuesday]

So our team qualified for Champs through EI last week at FLR, and we accepted the invitation. Now, we just need to find a way to bring and lodge the team! We've looked into the Steele reserved hotels, and it appears that we can get a better deal (by almost $2000 for a team our size) if we don't book through them, and go to a different hotel. However, we would be missing out on the Finale party. I know that last year was Will.i.am, which is very exciting, but this year doesn't look to be terribly intriguing. Will we be missing out on something fun if we choose to save the money?
