Darth Vader, Indiana Jones, Batman and SOTR2010
The title seems like the beginning of a joke but its all to do with Scotch On The Rocks in 2010.
So to answer questions like: Where the hell is SOTR2010?, is it going to be a tour, will it be in Amsterdam, go over to blog and read all about it
Scotch on the Road 2009 is coming to Europe
And the price of the ticket should make the tightest of managers happy - €0,00 (thats £0.00 or $0.00). You read that right, its free as in beer, so check out the scotch-on-the-rocks.co.uk site for more information. Below are the dates and locations. I'm already registered for London and trying my hardest to get to the Amsterdam one as well.

Are you going to Scotch on the Rocks
This is a shout out to anyone attending Scotch on the Road!
Conferences are a great place to network but with the amount of developers attending you might miss the chance to ping a question, or buy me them a beer. Also with Scotch being in 3 different places this year saying you're going isn't enough.
So in an effort to put bloggers/twitter'ers together leave a comment here letting everyone know your name, blog and/or twitter account, and the venue you're attending!
For the record I'm at the London event this year, and my twitter account where I tend to ramble, rant, talk crap is twitter.com/andyj
