Signing in New York, NY on 8/2
CourageousMouse:
I'll be there! I'm really super excited to meet everyone. (This is sherlockbones aka Melissa from Twitter, by the way).
Seeing as I've only ever been to NYC once, I plan on taking the entire day off of work and getting into the city around 9am or so and then just wandering around. If there happens to be a plan to meet up early for lunch or anything, please let me know, as I would be most happy to join.
Debating now if I can throw together a quick costume. I'll be at a convention all weekend, starting tomorrow afternoon, so I don't have much time to plan.

Seeing as how Jim was signing FIVE HOURS at last night's release party, priority in the signing line is going to be pretty important. Plus, the venue is very small, so they may end up ceding the entire seating area to folks who bought the book from B&N.

Yup, the event manager did confirm that a B&N receipt for GS would suffice for eligibility for priority seating.
If the crowd is large enough, I may scalp my seat. :D
Blaze:
Michael and I will be there (barring a disaster)!

Okay, I called both the store here in VA and the store in NYC to compare stories. VA said any B&N or BN.com receipt will get you a wristband. The guy at the NY store said that if you buy the book at the store, you get a wristband (as supplies last). You CAN bring in a receipt from another B&N and get a wristband, but those buying the book at the location get priority, so there may not be wristbands left.
Basically, show up as early as you can to get a wristband, whether your receipt is from the NY B&N, another B&N, or BN.com.
Blaze:
See, and today, Nick at the B & N Tribeca said to me on the phone: "Only books bought here on the DAY OF THE EVENT will be honored with a wrist band."
*SIGH*
Well at least I have my costume finished! ;)
