Starting off, we have Eric who blogged a nice writeup of his impressions/thoughts of the evening as well as photos from his slides. (LJ users note: you can subscribe to feed of his journal here
Mie (from SixApart) posted photos and videos from the Harmonics' performances and her experiences from the party.
As mentioned, the event was sponsored by Stormhoek wines, who generously provided wines - for those of you who attended and haven't yet posted about your evening, we'd appreciate a brief mention in a public entry on the topic as a way of saying 'thanks,' and do drop a comment below in this entry if you'd like your post linked from this journal.
There have been strong interest from people who wish for me to host another event, and I have a few ideas in the works already. As always, I'd be interested in hearing from you on what directions we should take future wine dinners. If you have any suggestions that don't fit into the poll, feel free to leave a comment below as well.

It's more difficult to close-out a restaurant on a weekend - but what are your preferences for future events?
I don't care, the only event I can attend is on a weekend.

I'm considering raising the price a bit (say to $55 an evening) to cover the costs of hiring a professional magician to mingle with the crowd. Good idea?
Yes! I love closeup magic.

I like magic, but I wouldn't attend for $55.

I am a cheapskate and think that $10 is too much for unlimited wine and live entertainment.
