The new City Diner may be open!). All you have to do is write about your experience on your blog, then send me the link so I can post it on the slso blog: slso.org\/blog.<br \/>&nbsp;<br \/>We meet in the Met Bar before the show and I give you your drink tickets. You&#8217;re welcome to take in David Robertson&#8217;s Preconcert Perspectives talk in the auditorium at 7pm, as well. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I&#8217;m told 14 bloggers have RSVPed so far, which is fantastic!
