Media day conundrum

I got the invite for Hard Rock Park's media shindig, and I'm torn about whether or not to go, and how much to cover if I do.

First off, it's mid-week, which is not convenient. It's not that I can't take the time off as much as I wonder if I'd rather use it for something else. The travel time is a factor, because I either have to fly somewhere not close to Myrtle Beach (at higher expense), or I have to drive to Pittsburgh and go direct (cheap tickets).

Then there's the issue of what exactly I cover there. I'd like to do the full video treatment, but in order to do that, I need either someone who can be my reporter/producer who knows how to interview, or someone who really knows how to shoot and I'll do the stand-ups. Basically I'd like to do what I couldn't do for Maverick due to the delayed opening.

The biggest thing is that new parks open so infrequently that I feel it'd be a serious missed opportunity to not go. I have to figure something out soon because I have to pull the trigger on travel very soon.

Yeah, I got that too. But a Tuesday and Wednesday?

I got a life to take care of (believe it or not).

I'll just get there as a guest in July...
