Thanks Adrian, I ended up taking a chance on Hotwire and it worked
quite well. Got a 4 star hotel for $115 plus tax! Don't think I've
been in a hotel that was over 2 stars so this will be interesting. :)

Checked the prices on the hotel's website and the lowest was $209 and
some rooms over $350 if I booked it thru them. Yikes.

I'll try and post on here Friday night as to what songs I picked for
the radio show.
