A deposit put down towards a purchase is different from a "rental" deposit which is only intended to cover possible damage to the rental property in question. Kind of like a "good faith" deposit. It's not a trick...simply a commitment to attending Jonifest 2002 which considering the amount of time, effort, and expenses that have been put into it is not that unreasonable to expect. I think it's pretty standard procedure for any kind of planned trip or weekend conference, etc...
