- Kevin mentioned the Vancouver Q&A in his diary, and it seems that the show WILL go on — However, NO DATE IS YET FINALIZED. There’s been one floating around, but that’s definitely changing (July 16th). We do have a nice post from “TheKiwi†with useful info if you DO plan to attend. We promise to get you a date here at the site as soon as it’s announced.

Hostel suggestion: Hostelling International has a location across the road from the Best Western and down a block (2 blocks from Vogue Theatre) $23-27 per person per night. I have stayed with HI a number of times, and they’re fantastic. Also, breakfast is included (usually Bagels and donuts).
Hint for booking flights: Compare flights for Vancouver, Canada with Seattle, WA or Bellingham, WA and rent a car. It’ll’ save you a considerable amount. Example, Newark, NJ to Vancouver is $550, but Newark to Seattle is $336. That’s over $200 saved, and a car is likely $30 a day. About 2 and a half hours drive ain’t so bad, especially if you split the car and gas with others. Bellingham is somewhere between the 2 prices, and about 1 hour south of Vancouver. Again, you’ll need a car.
