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.

Location Date
Munich October 19th [Register]
Zurich October 21st [Register]
Milan October 23rd [Register]
Amsterdam October 26th [Register]
Brussels October 27th [Register]
London October 29th [Register]

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

Scotch On The Road management information

If the low low price of £49+vat (which is at a low of 15%) for a ticket to Scotch on the Road wasn't enough the guys have put together a Managers Information Pack for download.

Designed to give you're boss a little extra incentive for convincing that, "conferences are good; benefit you and your company ... and you get a ton of freebies too."

Scotch On The Road venues and prices

Scotch On The Rocks has changed a little this year and is going on the roads with hopefully 3 one day events up and down the country, 2 of them already confirmed.

And the cost of the One Day Events:

  • £49 + VAT - 1 Event
  • £89 + VAT - 2 Events
  • £129 + VAT - 3 Events
  • Group discount of 5 for the price of 4.
  • Being a one-day event will make it even more accessible to developers that can't usually afford to take a couple of days of and the price should make it a little easier for your manager to swallow too!
