Chris,
I have been a lurker as of late, but I felt the need to jump in. First you have always done an awesome job with these shows and others that I have attended. Secondly I think it was a good call not to do anything this year if you were only being offered one night (personally I likely would have thought twice about coming for one show only as the Stratford weekend means a great deal to me.I would have felt hollow and cheated). Lastly everything needs to be rebuilt with time (hell the leafs do it annually). Taking a rest will only make the next time more special. Once again thanks for your efforts and take heart that in spite of rumours and speculations you are responsible for many happy memories (and future stories).
