Not sure where 2005 came from. I attended the Indie Gathering in 2000 and every year since. I screened Horrors of War there in 2006 and the Indie Gathering had been around for over 10 years at that point.

Here's the Link Tree to all our socials and the new site (still having a terrible time getting the .com to forward correctly)

All I know is we sponsored the "inaugural" one in 2005 and the Wayback Machine shows that as the first one. It used to reside on the .com, all of a sudden it's on the .net with no history page. New owners?

Interesting! It was sold as the 28th Indie Gathering so it might be they had more than one a year, so it might be 30th Gathering, not 30th year!

I know I was there way before 2005 though because that summer I made Horrors of War and played there the following year. Not sure if it went by another name prior to that.
