    Hello,
    I will be coming from abroad to the show and will be staying at the Ramada Plaza, located at 50 Morgan Street. By looking at Google maps it doesn’t seem that far from the venue and I was planning to come back to the hotel walking after the show. I would appreciate any advice from the locals, as far as how safe that would be… thanks in advance!

    Have you checked the Hilton? It's connected to the venue... No worries that way! Plus a big party I'm sure!

    Yes, but it's out of my budget unfortunately!!
    If I knew where it was, I would take you there.

    Beneficiary:
    Team Hardcore, of FIRST DESCENTS... http://tfd.firstdescents.org/site/TR?te ... 40&pg=team

    This is an amazing cause, in honor of Worcester native, Kristen Schraven Mawn. First Descents (FD) offers young adult cancer fighters and survivors a free outdoor adventure experience designed to empower them to climb, paddle, and surf beyond their diagnoses, defy their cancers, reclaim their lives, and connect with others doing the same. Kristen participated in one such adventure with FD in June of 2012, when she was considered “cancer free”, after vigorously battling breast cancer with rounds of chemo, surgery, and radiation. In the Outer Banks of North Carolina she learned much more than just how to surf... she chose the nickname “Hardcore” there, and returned feeling renewed and looking forward to the future. Tragically, two months later she discovered that the cancer cells had metastasized to her lungs, and though she fought it bravely until the end of her treatment, Kristen passed away on March 16th, 2013. "Team Hardcore" was developed to sponsor FD camps in Kristen's honor, specifically the 2013 surf camp in Santa Barbara (where Kristen had planned to go next), and also a NEW camp in North Conway, NH (hopefully to be established in 2014). The team's mission is to have an impact in the lives of other young adults with cancer by helping them realize the FD motto, to be “Out Living It.”

    I can guarantee all that Dave Chappelle will not be attending.
    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.
