Or just hang by the fire.

Don, I replied to your PM, but I don't know if you got it, so I'll reaffirm, here, my enthusiasm for your trip idea!

Anyone else thinking about it? Mick? ROC? Rik? Dready? Steve? Cracker? Flicker? Brianluce? Kholi? Buehler......Buehler?

 

[Zensteve]

If I'm not working, I'll come on up for sure.

 

[Scoopicman]

Frack me, that would be great, Steve!

 

[Flicker Pictures]

I had a fantastic time at IndieMeet 2010! The Conways roll out the carpet and cook up a storm.

I'll certainly think about it, Mike!

 

[Scoopicman]

We would love to see you again, Jeff!

 

[Dreadylocks]

I wish I could. One of these years... I haven't been on vacation in more than 6 years

But I am planning a trip to Vegas later (August) for the huge Star Trek convention! Woohoo! Nerd out!

Maybe I'll see you there?

 

[Scoopicman]

Very cool, Dready. I'm an original series fan. Maybe, we can meet at some point.

 

[2001 Productions]

Definitely gonna try to make it this year, Mike! It'll depend on the employment situation...

 

[LasVegasIRA]

I'll be there! Although, I don't know if I'm going to be up for a 2am clsoing time...

 

[Cracker Funk]

One of these years, I swear I shall make the trip! Alas, the planets are not aligning this year. I've just entered money-saving mode for the next production. Hopefully I can make it next year!

Hey, whatever we can do to help. In other words, you can just stay at the house, etc. Save your money!

I'll be there! Although, I don't know if I'm going to be up for a 2am clsoing time...

It's a slumber party (for several). Some people turn in early and actually get some sleep.

One of these years, I swear I shall make the trip! Alas, the planets are not aligning this year. I've just entered money-saving mode for the next production. Hopefully I can make it next year!

I was so stoked to be the first to screen ANTI-HERO, last year. So, we will patiently await for whatever is good for you, your funkness.

 

[wheatgrinder]

[JoshL]

Eventually I will make it out your way. Sounds like a blast!

No sir, it is I who bow before you!

It would be fun to make IndieMeet 2013 the premiere of my next feature, as well. And perhaps this time the filmmaker can attend.

Let's do it! My schedule is on THIS Thread.

Cool!

That would be grand!

You son of a.....

You do this over Memorial Day weekend and I can't go. So THIS year
you set it up deliberately on the weekend of the HUGE press event
for the opening of the new "Cars Land" at Disneyland. An even I have
already committed to and am getting paid really well for.

You just don't want me there, do you?

 

[2001 Productions]

Cars Land is opening??? Time to go back! Wife will be excited (and we haven't even seen Cars)!

IndieMeet is great. Not only do you get to meet other filmmakers, watch movies, and presentations. But, you also get to see what you might look like in 10 years or so.
