[Zoomaround]

I'm driving into San Diego on Wednesday afternoon and leaving Saturday evening. This will be my third Comic-Con but the first time I will actually attend for more than one day.

Looking forward to seeing you all there.

And when do we get the final details on the Friday night event?

Do we know the location yet?

I know that there's a Hooters not far from the convention center...

 

[GrueSam]

Oh Dave...

I hope it's at a location that's not as noisy as last year's was. Very hard to hear what the person next to me was saying!

 

[Darklord Dave]

What event?

 

[Darklord Dave]

What event?


Don't know that there's going to be any place where you get 100 people in a room all talking and it's not noisy.

 

[Azog]

Yes there is, few miles South, in Tiajuana! ROFL!

Friday's schedule is up now! If only I could clone myself a couple of times, it would be the only way I could see every panel I wanted to see. Spike and Mike's sick and twisted film festival got moved to Friday night now...what the hell?

 

[GrueSam]

I was referring to it being next to that extremely loud bar with that music... *meep*

 

[Darklord Dave]

The extremely loud bar won't be a problem this time.

Yet, I still say - "What event?"

B.Y.O.P.


So I've sent out invites to everyone that RSVP'd to me. If you think you RSVPd and didn't hear from me today, please email me. Don't count on me seeing a post on the board about it.

Also I didn't mention in the email, but the time, location, etc. for the party is privileged information. Please don't give it out.

Thanks.
