Chris Reeves will be in Long Beach January 23-27. Since I live in Long Beach, my household and I will be having a meetup with him one of those evenings (not the 23rd) and hope others can join us. Please let me know in comments or by PM if you can be there and I will choose a venue based on how many RSVP.
Update: please add which date works best for you. I know there are others who also live in Long Beach and nearby, people I haven't met yet and I hope you will be able to be with us.
