The lighter side at O’Reilly OSCON 08

Between the keynotes , general sessions , BoFs that are plenty of events at <a href=““http://en.oreilly.com/oscon2008/">OSCON 08.

Last night in the BoF time, a selected few enjoyed the relaxed music mode of the Good Company Soul and Blues Review . You can find my photos of what I’ve deemed the O’Reilly Band here .

Lacking the offers of free beer and activities of the larger events, may missed out on knowing about a great time, it was most enjoyable and relaxing. I think they should warm up for the keynotes in future, but then who would run all the AV!

The lights were rather bright, so grayscale actually helped out, so I’ve got a mixture of color and black and white.
