JACON Get Together

Postby Red Wolf » Mon Apr 21, 2003 11:45 am

Well we're just under 5 weeks away from JACON. Is anyone interested in an AMV creator get together at the con? I was thinking maybe we should plan an organized dinner like has been done before at AX and AWA. If so I was thinking Friday night would be best. Thursday night you have no con events, not even early registration :?, to compete with but I don't know if everyone will be in town that evening. Saturday night has the dance at the con hotel. Friday night doesn't seem to have anything going on in the later evening hours except for some all night AMV rooms at the con hotel.

Chime in with your thoughts on the subject.

I have a feeling most of JACON is going to be one big AMV gathering anyway :)

A bunch of us, including More Than Toast, are leaving the con Friday night to see a concert, so I guess that would count us out for dinner.

Isn't there sort of a mini-VAT there where we can hang out in pretty much all the time?
I have no idea how to use this new forum.

Alkaline Trio.

I'm not that big of a fan, but Akimbo, Zabet and Paizuri really want to go, so I might as well go just to hang out.

Yes, I have my Alk3 ticket!

Anyway, last year I referred to Jacon as Fuck-Akon-con, since all my AMV buddies were going there instead of Akon :'( I only chose Akon because my gf lives in Dallas...and we only ended up at the con for 2 hours.

It wasn't til afterwards that I realized what a big AMV party con Jacon was. Damn you, Florida!

I heart Alkaline Trio...

Luckily, I'm <A HREF="http://www.skateandsurffest.com/lineup.htm">seeing them Sunday</A>, so I don't hate you guys as much :P.

Have a good time :D.

:shock:

*Breaks out giant wrench to turn us back 180 degrees on topic*

I'm going to go ahead and guess that the answer to an organized dinner is no.
