Bahamut Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 You know, if this was in May, I would go (St. Louis only a 4 hour drive? Shit that means I must not be as far from there as I thought). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monobrow Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 I've been known to be in KY around that time of year... So if it turns out that I am in the area, then yeah I'd go. But don't count on it, because it would really depend on a shitload of factors. We shall see though. Sounds fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moseph Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 I'm moving to St. Louis sometime this summer, but I'm not sure exactly when. If I get up there before this happens, I'd definitely be interested. What kind of timeframe are you looking at for ticket purchasing?

big giant circles Posted April 11, 2008 Author Share Posted April 11, 2008 I'm moving to St. Louis sometime this summer, but I'm not sure exactly when. If I get up there before this happens, I'd definitely be interested. What kind of timeframe are you looking at for ticket purchasing? good question. i'll probably announce it within the week. i want to see what the initial level of interest among the "locals" is. if very few people respond within the week, then we'll probably purchase very soon. tenatively, though, i'll say that i'd LIKE to purchase the tickets before the end of the month. but we'll see.

EdgeCrusher Posted April 15, 2008 Share Posted April 15, 2008 Id really love to go, but unforunately the day its on is the same time Im madnatory working a shutdown at a plant.

ifirit Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 Hell, YES! Finally, an OCR event that is in the same state! I'm a definite. But, back of the concert hall seating? I'd rather spend the extra 10 bucks to get somewhat decent seats. Still, I'll jump in for group seating regardless of the location, if that's the way people want to go. Let me know when you guys decide on group seating or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sole Signal Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 C'mon, where is everyone? I'm not quite a definite yet but it's looking like it'll work out. Got a buddy too who might be interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ifirit Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 What's this? I'm in the maybe category? No, I'm DEFINITELY going. I just need to know if there will be group seating or not. If there isn't going to be group seating, I'll go ahead and purchase my ticket right now. Still, I'm going to try to see if I can find some people around here who'd also like to attend.

Moseph Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 I'm afraid I'm not gonna be able to make it -- it's looking like I won't be moving to St. Louis until August. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinewav Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 I'm just now seeing this, but I am DEFINITELY interested. I've got some friends who may be interested as well. For now, count me as a "maybe" with a "probably" in parenthesis. I'm going to do everything humanly possible to make it to this. I've been really wanting to check out VGL and attend a meetup, so there's no way I'm missing out on this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bahamut Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 You know, it's turning out that I *could* go if I happen to get a car by then...but highly unlikely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nekofrog Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Okay, here's the deal. Both my GF want to go (we went to the show in Fort Wayne, met all the guys, got her DS signed, chatted with Tom about OCR for a few minutes), but we're a few hours away. We're both willing to make the drive, but have nowhere to stay. Would anyone mind hosting us for a night or two? We'd be gone on sunday at the latest (saturday if you really want us out . We're both of legal drinking age so barhopping is also a possibility should you be up for it. Anyone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinewav Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Well, money and schedule shouldn't be an issue for me, so the only variable left is transportation. Could someone possibly give me a ride from Cincinnati and back? Help with gas money shouldn't be a problem. If no one can, I still haven't exhausted all my options yet. Worst comes to worst, I could always take the bus. bgc, could you define "very very very soon"? I have a know a few people who might be interested (and could possibly give me a ride), but right now isn't a good time to contact them. I'd also like to figure out my transportation issue before I buy tickets, but if you're talking about purchasing them, like, tomorrow or something, go ahead and get mine and I'll figure out the ride later. There's not a popsickle's chance in Hell I'm missing out on this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sole Signal Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 It's looking more and more like I can make it. I'll give my buddy a call about it tomorrow. We may hit up a hotel or something instead of making the early morning 5 hour drive back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big giant circles Posted April 28, 2008 Author Share Posted April 28, 2008 well, if this many people are interested, i'm all for getting a hotel. we can all bunk up and split the costs. went ahead and put you down as a definite, greg. sinewav, very very very soon is more just a general way of me saying "aight people. if nobody else says anything, i'm gonna go ahead and buy 2 tickets and that'll be that." but now it looks like we have some serious interest we're going to do this exactly as we did for DC. i'm going to go ahead and formally set the date to buy tickets on May 19th, which is 2 months before the concert. I'd set it for the 18th, but that's a sunday, and their ticket office might be closed by then. So here in the next couple days, I'm going to post some paypal info, and anyone who is going to go will need to pay me BEFORE I buy the tickets. I realize that this requires trust, possibly in a person you've never met, but we did it for the DC show without problems, and I can assure you all I'm not going to take your money and run. I'm going to update the 1st post tomorrow, so check it periodically for major updates etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nekofrog Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 If we do the hotel thing, you can count my girl and I in. She's totally up for seeing this again. I'll have to snag a couple OCR shirts beforehand though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinewav Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 So are we thinking that we might be hanging around Louisville for the whole weekend? Ticket cost, gas money, and even dinner that evening shouldn't be a problem, but anything more will require a little more planning on my part. I'm totally up for pitching in for a hotel and all that, but if that's the plan, how much money should I put aside for this trip? EDIT: If everyone else wants to, I wouldn't mind purchasing better (or best) seats. I'd rather sit with the group though, if someone can't afford it.

ifirit Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 I'll pitch in for a hotel as well. And a resounding YES on purchasing better tickets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sole Signal Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 If I/we do end up getting a hotel, I could see maybe going out for lunch Saturday, but I'd be heading back after that. EDIT: Also, I can do the $48 tickets, but no $75 Grand Tier boxes for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
