I was unable to make it to any of the events last year >:( >:( >:(, so never heard how it turned out?
Any reports or comments?  What's planned for this year?

Sir Martin

I didn't get to attend TRF After Dark last season, but I believe Terre has said it will return this year on Saturday nights.

We are taking what we learned from the first year and second year and combining them.  More dancing, a nice performance or two each night and it's only on Saturdays this year.  Themes and details are coming out this week.

Will there be a proper sound engineer this year? With the acts and everything it really can't be handled the same as last year.
