Marty,

Thanks for posting this. If they come out with a schedule of events before 6/20, would you please post that, too? Also, when I get to SP, is there somewhere to get a map that shows where everything (restaurants, bars, hotels, grocery stores, shops, etc.) is? And is there something published that lists where the live entertainment will be? I remember reading on this board that the Chicken Drop is on certain nights (but don't remember which), and I pulled Barefoot Skinny's schedule off his web site. I'm sure there are other things on various nights, but don't know what they are, so was hoping there would be something published. Thanks for your help.

Yes, I will post any schedule I receive....
