Well - we paid for stuff like shipping (gear), power strips, gaffer tape,
video tapes, a rental truck, volunteer munchies, and a lot of misc.

Verio picked up a big chunk of our costs (Thanks Randy!) -

If you've got gear, local loop, & transit you might be able to
do a meeting for under $3,500. (modulo a blues band - which
SHOULD be a requirement)
