As a graduation present for exzebachay, I got us tickets to this spiffy event. I can't wait. A whole weekend of steampunk, Edward Gorey and people watching/outfit envy.
As a bonus for you guys, Jill Tracy is playing there. She told us this at her last concert, which made me want to go to the Edwardian Ball even more. I hope you guys have an amazing blast, take lots of pictures, and get me swag. :-)
On a side note, is "The Difference Engine" a good book? I kinda figure you guys have read it, but it's the only Gibson I haven't read yet (including the new ones). :)
Hrrrm. Well, it took me multiple attempts over several (I think 5) years to finish it, but I'm glad I did. It was extremely difficult for me to get into, and it's one of the only books that I haven't reread a billion times. That said, the setting was amazing, and it definitely instilled a love of steampunk in me.
