Well, I've already confirmed with Bob -- I was thinking the evening of the 12th 
since that's when we'll have the most folks around.  Perhaps we could have him 
give a quick spiel before the bands talking about why media conglomerization 
sucks, how we're being lied to, and how WRFU, Indymedia, etc. is a part of the 
cure, and then have him sign books as needed?  This way we can get some 
synergies between the book signing, folks coming to the concert, etc.
