MMS 2009 closing party will suck as bad as 2008

We all thought 2008's closing party was the worst Microsoft conference closing party ever, but apparently Microsoft didnt listen to the negative feedback last year.

This years event:
Attendee Party
Thursday, April 30, 7:00pm–10:00pm
Venetian Ballroom C
Close out an amazing event with an evening of great food, Xbox gaming (Halo Wars, Rockband 2 and Guitar Hero: World Tour, etc.) and entertainment you would never expect: The Pete Contino Band! This Zydeco band features a new wave of music with an exciting New Orleans flare. Enjoy the music, sip on our signature cocktail - the ITProtini - and catch up on the week with friends old and new.

A little google stalking and you find out the pete contino band charges between 800 and 4000 for a event. (http://www.gigmasters.com/Zydeco/thepetecontinoband/)

Way to go all out Microsoft..

I will be skipping this one.
