Nekofrog Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 So here's the deal, you guys seem in favor of bbq and not so much walking around. FYI the generic aimlessly-tour-SF thing wasn't part of the plan anyway, that was another option that got veto'd in favor of going on Friday and getting to see ILM / etc.- The "walking tour" of the Presidio area really was my way of dressing up the fact that we'd have to do quite a bit of walking anyway to go from one bus to the other - We don't have to do lunch at lucasfilm if you wanna just start the bbq early - We don't have to do the Marina District at all - We can even skip the Lucasarts bit altogether if the consensus is that you just wanna chill at the beach grilling the whole time. My apt is very close by (much closer than you're probably imagining). - "Bleeding" into Saturday is totally fine too, and in fact I have a very large living room and a sofa. No carpeting and only two extra blankets (one's a sleeping bag), but, just throwing it out there. - PLEASE reply to this post suggesting exactly what you want / need me to get for a BBQ, I really wanna make sure you guys are happy with whatever so feel free to suggest anything - especially if you have dietary restrictions, etc. Looks like Arek and I are in. Food is whatev, burgers and hotschlongs, chips whatev. I hope you're not planning on paying for it all by yourself, I'm going to chip in.

Darklink42 Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 I'm also in, but I'm not going to be able to stay for the whole thing. I'm coming down with a small group of my friends, and we'll be down for lucasarts/lunch, but probably wander off to do our own thing afterwards. Kind of the price of transportation if you will. Anyways, can't wait to actually get down there, I'm looking forward to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capa Langley Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 The more the merrier. Just remember to give the info of those people to Will so he can pre-register them for the tour. FOOD! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashamee Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 Wish I was going, but I won't be in Cali yet. We'll have to do this some other time. That aside, I hope everyone has fun and takes lots of pictures and stuff so I can see just how cool it all was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bustatunez Posted April 2, 2009 Author Share Posted April 2, 2009 Remember tonight's the cutoff for getting me your real names so I can register you tomorrow. Please send me your cell #s too, again you can find mine at my website. Thanks - looking forward to seeing y'all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bustatunez Posted April 2, 2009 Author Share Posted April 2, 2009 Here's info on parking btw: http://www.embarcaderocenter.com/ec/about/directions.html#parking It's pricey at first but capped at $32 for the whole day, which is likely what it'd end up being for most.

It's just the way things worked out. I figured on maybe just stopping by to say hey. I'm still working out the exact details, but the gist is that we won't be group-crashing the meetup proper. Next time it'll just be me and there won't be all these weird issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capa Langley Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 ew 32$? I vote we just drive after the tour at least. There should be parking at the beach... (not sure about apartment parking rules). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you actually ever tell busta that personally? I hope you didn't just assume that he would be okay with it. Also, you have my name and number so I am good to go. 32 bucks though? Dude...thats hefty. Any alternatives? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arek the Absolute Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Park elsewhere and carpool to reduce how many people pay that cost? I was thinking about parking at a bart station and taking the bart there. also what are you doing you are east coast get outta here you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darklink42 Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Did you actually ever tell busta that personally?I hope you didn't just assume that he would be okay with it. No, I just decided to bring a gang of people on a whim so we can terrorize the meetup with no prior warning just to personally bother you. /sarcasm Seriously, it's not that big a deal and he already said as much. I let him know that I didn't have plans to stick around all day anyways. My plans changed and I've had to adjust them accordingly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bustatunez Posted April 2, 2009 Author Share Posted April 2, 2009 No worries about Darklink Arek, we'll figure something out. At the moment I'll only include his name on the list, his friends can still come to the non-private areas of the Lucas campus. I have contact info from the following: Arek & Nekofrog Yosho & Upthorn Globaltrance Battousai Darklink42 Slygen Starla & Justin [not attending tour] Revelation Orange [not attending tour] This is a heavy list already (as far as Lucas tour goes), I'm gonna see if I can start registering names right now just in case I need to pull extra strings/favors tomorrow. PARKING SOLUTION Yes, $32/day is ridiculous. Two possibilities: 1) We meet up at Embarcadero, park briefly and otherwise check in with me, and then caravan it to the Lucas campus. I can get you free parking nearby. 2) OR, since we now have a solid list, we can entertain the idea of meeting right at that aforementioned parking lot and bypass Embarcadero altogether. That would actually be much more convenient for me, esp. now that there's not much point in Embarcadero besides public transit convenience. So far Arek, Yosho, Upthorn, and Neko have confirmed this is fine for them - GlobalTrance, Darklink42, Slygen and Battousai can you please confirm this in a PM or a reply ASAP? There will be no lunch @ Lucas b/c the size is so much bigger than I'd anticipated. But there are shops nearby if you wanna grab something quick, and plus we'll have to go there anyway to get BBQ supplies after the tour. For those of you joining us at the beach, we should be over there by 2pm. You can park near my apartment at Lincoln & Stillwell. Arek and Nekofrog have explained to me that they'll need to stay overnight at my place, please tell me right away if anyone else absolutely needs to as well.

Arek the Absolute Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 I just wanted to make sure everything was okay. I don't want to inconvenience busta in any way since he is doing a kick ass lucas tour is all Sall good bros Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Global-Trance Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 I am down for any and all of this and I can meet anywhere. It's just that if we don't meet at the Embarcadero Station then I will need to know how to get where I need to be FROM the Embarcadero Station. I'm coming in on BART.

bustatunez Posted April 2, 2009 Author Share Posted April 2, 2009 Cool! So far: Arek is giving a ride to Nekofrog, then picking up Battousai and Globaltrance along the way Upthorn is taking Yosho Darklink42 needs to tell me if meeting at the Presidio location is possible Slygen needs to tell me if meeting at the Presidio location is possible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLyGeN Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 I would much prefer to meet at that location, and have you cut us a deal on parking. I'll PM you my yes answer as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bustatunez Posted April 2, 2009 Author Share Posted April 2, 2009 Jawsome! I heard back from both Darklink and Slygen, and we will now be meeting at the Presidio. I just entered you all into visitor registration, so barring some unforeseen incident you're all in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mustin Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Hope to see some of you that are sticking around (or just around anyway) on Saturday! Too bad I won't be around for the Friday part - I'll be flying all day! Have fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
