That’s what I get for trying to get the name right without thinking if the name is actually right. Sorry GSP nerds. I’m better than that. Probably.

Yeah Toadies! Any venue is better than that scary rathole on East Riverside in Austin where they used to appear.

I do have to agree with Sean. Nothing frustrates me more than a “First Annual” event stating, well except maybe standing at a bar for longer than 5 minutes waiting for a drink.

Not that FrontBurner is a bastion of AP style, but: “annual: An event cannot be described as annual until it has been held in at least two successive years.
Do not use the term first annual. Instead, note that sponsors plan to hold an event annually.” IJS
