there will be no radio show this year. There may still be a video feed of the festivities, but no anniversary show.
I'll keep you posted on the video.

I can clear up a few things that I thought had been covered on the show, but I could have been under the influence. It has happened.
Safety...pffft....don't worry. I never saw a group so afraid of black people. Except the Schuman's, but that was an incident with Terrence The Black and it's fully justified. Don't ask.
Marriott...fully safe, BART steps away (also fully safe). Seriously, not a worry to be had there.
Linden St.... Fully safe. There have been several events such as this one held there without a problem. It's a great redeveloped neighborhood, and I've even considered moving to the great lofts they have in the area. But alas, my heart is in Pacheco (as well as my tiny wallet)
West Oakland BART and walk to Linden St. - Here is the only leg that I worry about. I do not recommend walking from the Marriott or West Oakland BART to the party. Both would probably be entirely safe, but I just can't say I would do it myself, so don't recommend it. There is NO transportation provided TO the party from these locations. So I recommend taxi's. It will be a very cheap fair from either location and well worth the money.
If there is a group of you, I would totally walk from West Oakland BART, but not alone. From the Marriott, I'm just too lazy to walk that.
Going home from party, transportation will be provided via shuttle service to West Oakland BART, and taxi's. There is a possibility that there will be a double decker party bus around that may shuttle us back to Marriott as well. That would be sweet, but it's a West Oakland locals thing and I've not gotten confirmation it will be there.
Prices for the party:
$20 gets you a commemorative BNA4 glass (they are sweet) and all the beer you can responsibly drink, including beer from:
21A
Marin Brewing Co.
Stone
Drake's
Triple Rock
Schooners
Ale Industries
The Bruery
Firestone
Lagunitas
Linden Street
and more....
plus homebrew from:
Tasty
Shat
J (yikes)
Doc
Beevo (what?)
Mike Mraz
and more...
$14 gets you Tri-tip and Brat bbq dinner with sides from Emergency BBQ Catering (um...they f'ing rock, be ready for great food)
BNA4 commemorative shirts will also be on hand for $15 bones.
And that is the low down and dirty. Come one, come all, and bring friends. We expect a blowout and I wanna see my peeps there. We've made quite an effort this year to show you all a good time and we never disappoint. This is really your party as listeners, not ours.

That is correct. The anniversary glass and food is NOT included. Your bus tour does include all beer and also lunch though so you are fully covered until you reach Linden.
Talent photos are...well...priceless.

I can't decide if that means I need more money or not.

If you have to ask...you can't afford it
