Board Meetup
 
Well let's see who's up for the idea. We'd have to consider a place (show) to organize it at, probably trying to aim it at one of the SY tour dates this summer. Another thing is the US/England thing. We could probably have both. We can pick a SY show date somewhere near central US somewhere.
I'll update this thread once we decide on more details

schizophrenicroom 02.22.2007 09:42 PM

i'm up, definetly.

and while i'd love to meet a bunch of the uk/european folks on here, us/everywhere else is just better.

if anyone's in the san jose, california during the summer.. then that's even more awesome.

Inhuman 02.22.2007 10:37 PM

If I get a good 4 days off work, then I can go, but I'm working a summer Government job, so it may be difficult. We'll have to plan things out right. I'd only need 2 days if it's planned in North East US, but then it would make it harder for people from the West to come

k-krack 02.22.2007 10:40 PM

I'd be down so hard if I had money and a way of getting to the states... but alas, I do not...:(

If I get my friend to drive me, I can probably convince him to stop off at toronto on the way down. As long as you chip in on gas!

Even getting to toronto, convincing my parents to let me, could take some work.
We'll see, though!

CHOUT 02.23.2007 03:58 AM

I wanna meet Porkmarras.

_slavo_ 02.23.2007 04:12 AM

If it was in England, I'd come.

If it was in USA, I would not.

shentov 02.23.2007 04:16 AM

slavo let's make Eastern European/Balkan meeting:)

sonicl 02.23.2007 04:17 AM

Shentov! Every time I see that you've posted it makes me smile.

You and Slavo should come over to the UK for the DDN shows. You can do a road trip!

shentov 02.23.2007 04:18 AM

glad to know someone thinks of me:)

_slavo_ 02.23.2007 04:25 AM

shentov 02.23.2007 04:41 AM

_slavo_ 02.23.2007 04:48 AM

shentov 02.23.2007 04:50 AM

screamingskull 02.23.2007 07:23 AM

screamingskull 02.23.2007 07:37 AM

oh, mmmmm, well they will probably play spain won't they?, that have in the past haven't they?

compulsive diarrhea, jico 02.23.2007 07:44 AM

there are more sy fans in the country i live than in spain.

i really, really, really, really, really, really, really, hope to see sy playing here this year.

screamingskull 02.23.2007 07:45 AM

how long since you saw them last?

compulsive diarrhea, jico 02.23.2007 07:46 AM

mmm, quite a while then, i saw them last in 2004. Well if its any consolation its probably going to cost me £300+ for all this, gig tickets and hotel and train, and thats not factoring in food. soooooooooooo

compulsive diarrhea, jico 02.23.2007 08:03 AM

i've just checked and it was in 2003.
--/--
i have no idea how much is that in euros, but since it has 3 numbers i presume that its a load of money. that's my problem - i dont have money.

anyway, enjoy your shows!

thats a good way to do it!, im staying at the holiday Inn in camden (unless anyone can suggest a hotel closer?)
Its about £120 a night there in august!, but i have until then to save for it.

_slavo_ 02.23.2007 08:31 AM

wait, the DDN gigs are directly in London or somewhere outside the city???

This will influence my decision if to come or not to a large extent.

Iain 02.23.2007 08:40 AM

Ugh, fuck Holiday Inn! Stay in a hostel or something..as racehorse said it'll probably cost you about £10-£15 a night or something.

Georgekrz 02.23.2007 09:28 AM

screamingskull- ok im gonna give away my secret super-cheap hotel option in London- arosfa hotel, a single room i think was around 45 gbp last year, its right next to British Museum, the location is killer, and the hotel itself is pretty nice for what you pay. google it for website.

Inhuman 02.23.2007 09:42 AM

If anyone needs a hotel for the US meetup, I can hook you up with one since all my step-siblings are General Managers of hotels and have TONNES of contacts

Trasher02 02.23.2007 10:03 AM

If there was a meet-up in england I could basically attend though the chances are quite low.
US is out of the question.

king_buzzo 02.23.2007 10:09 AM

yeah lets all meet up at ATP 2007

_slavo_ 02.23.2007 10:24 AM

No, let's meet at DDN gig in September/August. ;-)

The Lung 02.23.2007 10:57 AM

You should all meet up at crypto's palace, he could pay for eveyones plane tickets and the booze/drugs.
