I am flying to SFO on Sunday morning from Canada. Neil mentioned that he is hosting a bbq that evening. I was looking for a hotel nearby for Sunday night. Any advice?

I think a few of us already have rooms there as well.
The Bristol Hotel is very close, and it proved to be quite nice last year. Plus it is right across the street from a very nice guitar store.I am flying to SFO on Sunday morning from Canada.

Hey everyone--
I'm getting serious about packing/gear/etc., as I am sure everyone else is, but I remember Neil last year mentioning something about forgotten guitar stands, among other things. Is having a guitar stand necessary because I don't think I'm going to be able to fit one in a carry on bag.
Also, beside the guitar travel case, someone also mentioned needing a soft bag for camp. I have one, but again I only want to take what's necessary.
Just what are the essentials besides a guitar, picks, extra strings, capo and the usual?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Wiley,
You wrote "Most of us leave our axes sitting at the main area . . . ". Unless you are thinking about chopping up the guitars, did you mean "cases"? Just want to be sure. So leaving a hard case some place is ok and we can rest the guitars there?

Jean - axe is just another term for guitar. I presume it has rock origins.
or perhaps it's a chops reference.
