Odin's Revenge:
" Well, you're right - Nebraska isn't on the front range, but at under 5 hours western Nebraska is still a hell of a lot closer than most of the Midwest grinder round up.
Odin's Revenge appears to be taking form for late June. According to the on Guitar Ted's blog post the event should be about 180 miles leaving from Gothenburg, NE. It's new, details are not final, there's no website and there may be limited space, but it could be a good event if it really comes together."
Sounds like an alternative to DK200...or in addition to...whatever floats your boat.
