Okay, first cut, no promises, subject to change, your actual mileage may be different, and all other applicable and inapplicable disclaimers.

If I've listed you as giving a mini concert and this is the first you've heard about it, just PM me and let me know whether it works for you or not.

This is a really really rough cut, sorry, but I know people want to start planning so ... here is the part we're pretty sure about, somewhat, mostly.
