In consulting with some of the more interested parties, Sunday morning seems to be agreeable for doing Old-School and BC raiding. So I'll start putting these on the calendar for anyone to come to. Some destinations in mind:

Blackwing Lair (BWL): This place is money- A full clear has about 2000g to split among raid members (We've cleared this before with 8 people.), lots of iconic Classic WoW gear comes from here, and everyone can get an Onyxia Scale Cloak to keep from burning up!

Temple of Ahn'Qiraj (AQ40): Huge and filled with bugs. But besides some fun fights and a chance at killing another Old God, there's also colorful bug mount drops here. (Counts towards the achievements, but can only ride in the instance). Also gives Brood of Nozdormu rep, and I think Cenarion Circle too.

Sunwell Plateau: Not a lot of pugs go here, because apparently it's still 'hard' in that the fights require coordination. I think we can try 'progressing' through fights here for a coveted achievement!

We can also do fairly fast tours through MC, ZG, AQ20, Kara, ZA, depending on what people want to do that week.

I'd go all in for those, fond memories of olden days. Sunwell is tricky, but the Kil'jaeden fight is just plain awesome. He is not the hardest fight though--that will be Felmyst and the Twins. Especially the Twins. There will be half a dozen wipes on just learning how to stand on--but not fall off of--the ledge prior to the pull.

I'd be interested in Sunwell as well as Tempest Keep and at least one SSC run.

* Razorgore can once again be controlled multiple times and defeated appropriately.

BWL is fixed! I'd still like to start here on Sunday, and then see if we have numbers for the BC raids.

Katy and I should be settled in within a couple more weeks, so... soon?

Quick updates:
Seems noon to 1pm is the better start time on Sunday, so thus it shall be.
Serpentshrine Cavern has been scheduled for this coming Sunday. Honestly, other than fishing and the final battle with Lady Vashj, I know nothing of this place. Should be fun!
With Onyxia getting revamped in 3.2.2 (are we even at 3.2.1 yet?), I'm also going to offer small group tours for the current Onyxia. 1 healer 1 dps is sufficient, takes 10~15 min. Quicker with more, and this may be your last chance for the original raid achievement, the original T2 helm, or other goodies (I know I'm looking for some recipes from her, myself).

Yes this is like a shameless bump, but just to let interested parties know we started again around 1pm Sunday, and did a lucrative full clear of BWL (200-300g ea., Nanyko got some shammy pieces to last till 70, and I got the iconic pally shoulders).
And then we ran through some BC heroics to round out achievements (sadly, no white chocobos were found). We'd like to try for another run at BC raid instances too, as long as we have enough guildies to start it. We'll fill out the raid once we have a good core to start with.
