The  show was held on November 15, 2001 at the Brickside Inn in the Eagleview Corporate Park in Chester County (thanks Howard!).  The line-up included people from a number of companies within the Eagleview Corporate Park, including Bentley Systems, Fujirebio Diagnostic, Mary Kay, and Atlantech.  </B></div> </td> <td valign="top" height=400 BGCOLOR="#FFFFFF" TEXT="#080000"> <div> <TABLE BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="2" CELLSPACING="1" WIDTH="704" BORDERCOLORLIGHT="#C0C0C0" BORDERCOLORDARK="#808080" FRAME="BOX" RULES="ALL" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0" > <tR> <tD VALIGN=CENTER HEIGHT= 410 ><NOBR><div> <IMG SRC="1fe2c940.png" border=0 width="300" height="404" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> </NOBR></tD> <tD VALIGN=CENTER WIDTH="196"><div> Once again, Mike Springer led off with some stunning magic tricks (how do he do that?) as well as eating and breathing fire (there is something wrong with that boy).  Kids, don't ever try this at home without professional supervision and a fire extinguisher handy.</div> </tD> <tD VALIGN=CENTER><NOBR><div> <IMG SRC="1fdc8f80.png" border=0 width="200" height="248" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> </NOBR></tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=CENTER HEIGHT= 252 WIDTH="296"><div> Voodoo DeVille kicked off the music and played throughout the evening.  Here, Pops shows off his new Pork Pie hat during <I>Flip, Flop, and Fly</I>.  With that hat on, we're not sure if Pops looks more like Thelonius Monk or Boy George.</div> </tD> <tD VALIGN=CENTER COLSPAN=2><NOBR><div> <IMG SRC="1ff90f60.png" border=0 width="400" height="246" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> </NOBR></tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=CENTER HEIGHT= 291 ><NOBR><div> <IMG SRC="2002c1d0.png" border=0 width="300" height="285" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> </NOBR></tD> <tD VALIGN=CENTER COLSPAN=2 WIDTH="395"><div> Tim Kettlety of Fujirebio Diagnostic played guitar and sang a couple of sets.  He proved once and for all that there are a number of songs with more than 3 chords.  How does he remember them all?  As an added bonus, Tim's entourage helped fill the place up.</div> <bR> </tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=CENTER HEIGHT= 249 WIDTH="296"><div> Tony Ryan, from the band Woodshed, sat in for a few songs on harp.
