MESS meets in the lounge at Holiday Inn, Johnson City
Monday's starting at 7:00 pm
Holiday Inn provides a nice speaker / amplifier set-up that allows our DJs to only have to bring their own console to hook into the
sound system.  This combination allows them to concentrate the sound directly on the dance floor & provides great dance sound, but
at  the same time allows people to socialize without having to yell.

Holiday Inn staff works hard to accommodate MESS on Monday nights.

Be sure to support our friends at Holiday Inn by purchasing food & drinks.
Don't forget to tip the bar staff.  They work very hard to make us happy.
