Not that I'm superstitious, but I'd avoid the date simply because the Titanic sank on 15 April!

Hi:
I'm picking a date for an evening program for an adult audience and
April 15th keeps coming up as available in various local venues I'm
considering.
My gut-level feeling is that "tax day" is not a good day for an adult
audience to attend a program, but my only data to support this is
personal experience.
... Personally, I'm always running to the post office at 11pm on April
15th, and there's always a line of others who would potentially be my
audience if I threw the program on April 17th, and...
...Personally, I'm suspicious that this is the reason all the local
venues are available on April 15th and trying to "sell me" on that day.
It is doubtful that I'll go with April 15th, but, out of curiosity, I
thought I'd ask...
... Does anyone keep attendance data and happen to have noticed whether
there is a difference in attendance at adult audience programming on
April 15th?
...If you had a lecture series on ... say Tues evenings ...and that
happens to fall on April 15th, would you cancel that single evening's
program?
Just curious
