remote BAM Blast?

Amidst all this madness, I'm bummed, as many are, that BAM Blast is one of the casualties of this time. In no small part because this event was to commemorate a friend and fellow egghead. Not that one needs a bbq event to celebrate a friend, but it has some meaning.
Any thoughts re: having a "remote" event anyway? I'll leave it to the more tech savvy among us to figure out how to do this on Google Meet, Zoom, etc. We could egg/cook on 4/18, just at home instead of at Dan Nicholas Park, connect, and share some laughs, beverages, and such. Getting the petting zoo details worked out could be a challenge, but I'm sure the UK fans will rise to the occasion.

I was hoping that, at a minimum, everyone that purchased a shirt could wear it that day. we could post up some cooks in a dedicated thread. Basically dedicate the day to egging and day drankin’. To keep it in line with the real
thing, all alcohol has to be concealed in a cup or a hugger/coozie.

I think this is a great idea. I'm happy to host a Zoom meeting. I have an unlimited account and would be happy to set this up. People can join with video via either their phone or a web browser."I've made a note never to piss you two off." - Stike

I like this idea too. No reason we couldn't do both. Everyone can participate as they want.

If it keeps shrinking, I probably won't fit in my shirt by the 18th

Would it be feasible to host an open Zoom meeting for a window of time, where folks can come and go as they please? Pop in, show what's cooking, shoot the shite, leave, and maybe pop in again if they want?JohnInCarolina said:I think this is a great idea. I'm happy to host a Zoom meeting.

If you have a better option please offer it up. For large groups I have yet to see anything more stable.NCSmoky said:ehhhh.... anything but Zoom please"I've made a note never to piss you two off." - Stike -

I dont, but Zoom has basically been classified as Malware and I don't trust their "fix".JohnInCarolina said:

i havent tried mine on yet, but judging by the trend (mine) of the past few weeks, I'm worried about the same. I had the foresight (?) of ordering one size upthetrim said:If it keeps shrinking, I probably won't fit in my shirt by the 18th

I don't think there is anything wrong with zoom - their default security settings (no passwords on meetings) was very lax and that has been addressed.

Will we have to put on pants?_____________
Remember when teachers used to say 'You won't have a calculator everywhere you go'? Well, we showed them.

I vote for pants optional. I just don't need to see manipples. That's all I ask.#1 LBGE December 2012 • #2 SBGE February 2013 • #3 Mini May 2013A happy BGE family in Houston, TX.

Conversations here head South in a hurry, lol...Coleman, Texas
Large BGE & Mini Max for the wok. A few old camp Dutch ovens and a wood fired oven. LSG 24” cabinet offset smoker. There are a few paella pans and a Patagonia cross in the barn. A curing chamber for bacterial transformation of meats...

This has since been fixed. But somehow I’m not worried about a hacker taking over my mac microphone during this. The bourbon will do that all by itself.NCSmoky said:"I've made a note never to piss you two off." - Stike -

Just spit balling as I am totally tech illiterate, whether this is done on some virtual meeting, or just VIA forum thread dedicated to BAM Blast , it would be cool if someone could take all images etc and condense them into a Montage or something of the likes ...my 2 centsVisalia, Ca @lkapigian
