After a lifetime of magic, I am attending my first I.B.M. convention this year in Grand Rapids and am VERY excited!
I have not yet, however, registered for the Friday night Grand Banquet as the $70 price tag is a bit steep (and could eat into my ability to spend on lecture notes and the such).
What goes on there?... is it "worth it"? (I realize that's a personal value judgement... I'm just looking for some insight.)

Thanks!
