Re: The proposed Convention
Well since my post regarding the proposed Shout Convention/gathering, I am
disappointed to say that the response to this has been pathetic!!
We had 30 definite certs for the event prior to posting here and AMW and O&S,
and it now stands at a pitiful 34! This event is being organised for you,
Who fans, a chance for fans to get together and have a great time, sure
plans are in there infancy but until we get an idea of how many would be
interested in attending, progress cant be made. I cant believe that amongst
what are meant to be the hard core of fans on these NGs that only 4 are
interested in such an event. This event needs the support and encouragment
of fellow fans for anything to be accomplished.
The only details so far that I can tell you is that it will probably be held
in Spring, definitely in the UK but not London, but it is a place close to
London and Brighton. Again to reiterate this gathering will not be a second
Bottom Line of 95, but a convention in more of the usual style, fans getting
together, watching some tributes, video presentations, quizes, stalls,
beer and a laugh, accomodation will be on the site also, so there will be
no need to travel anywhere apart from the hall to your beds close-by.
Please show some support for this, and then maybe things might come
together, dont let apathy rule.
cheers
