HC 2023 dates?

Post by schlanky »

Does anyone know if dates have been picked for Homecoming 2023?

I'm looking at booking a hiking trip that, due to the climate, needs to be done in January or February. It books six months out, and reservations go quickly, so I would need to be thinking about booking in a couple of weeks if I aim to hike in January.

I know HC was traditionally January before Craig passed, then moved to February for several years before moving back to January in 2022 before the postponement to April.

I'm sure as hell not gonna miss Homecoming, but also would like to make the backpacking trip.

Patterson made a comment about Athens being beautiful in April, and “making a mental note of it” at the 40 Watt this HC, so maybe we’re up for a change? I assume there are loads of parameters to considerer when planning these things and that January/February may be the best option for a “normal” year anyway.

One of us should just call Cooley and ask. I think he’d be most receptive to a 3am call!!!

Please make that call on zoom. I'd pay good money to see that.

Just wonderin': whatever happened to skype?

Oh, yeah, schlanky: I have not heard even rumors much less fact about 2023 but I do know that all concerned were very pleased w/ the way the April dates worked out. Nothing to make plans around, unfortunately.

Since it appears likely that COVID is still going to be very much a concern through the winter, I'm thrilled by this.

Also, having it in April makes it feel like far more of a "vacation" for me coming from WI than it did in January/February.

From what Patterson said on Facebook, it appears likely that HHC will be March 29 thru April 1.
I am glad that Homecoming will be 4 shows again in 2023 and that it will not conflict with The Masters.

Conflicts with The Masters have always perturbed me.
