Anime Expo 2009

Well I'm going if I can get the time off and find a ride down there.

most likely I'll be going as well, but maybe only 2 of the 4 days, I am gonna talk to the bosses this week and see what they have to say, hopefully I can get the time off nano desu.

Still waiting on the damn schedule. AX is being pretty slow with it. Just to get a general idea, anyone want to give their thoughts on times and day? I'll put an official poll later, I just want to get an idea.

I get the feeling the last day wouldn't work, and probably the first day, maybe, so that leaves the middle 2 Fri, and Sat, but these are just my thoughts, I wish the schedule was out too, I been bugging a friend of mine you is high up in the AX hierarchy(spends the whole convention locked in a room with other higher ups in front of a computer etc, not even the AX normal staff or security are allowed in that room) and he can't tell me moar then half of what goes on etc.
But, anyways I am thinking one of those two days might be better, I personally have no plans, none of the events(guests/concerts etc) have me intrigued enough nano desu

Some of the schedule is up. As you can see, on day 2 and 3, there's some events going on. I was thinking anytime between said events, or soon after. Or, if no one is going to them, we can plan it during one of them. Suggestions anyone?

Nights 1-3 are fine, as long as you guys don't mind being in LA late at night.

Also, SPJA is always slow with news. It shouldnt surprise you.

Whichever seems fine I guess. This is my first time going so I don't know much about what's going on. I'm going for all days.

I'm guessing on either day 2 or 3 than, between the time of 3 and 7PM, or after 9:30PM. Also, we can have it early, and make a group breakfast thing outta it. Say.... 9AMish to whenever. Or do two different meets at different times.

Also, I want to start making a list of who's going to the meet, and who isn't. If you're going or not, please say so. I WILL adjust it as anyone needs once the official schedule/poll is out.

The group breakfast thing sounds good, also how bout some sort of dinner maybe? And the director for Gundam 00 is going to be there! Sweet!

There's a denny's close by, along with subway and such. I think a McDonald's too. Whichever people may want. I'm going to let people talk it out and such, especially after the schedule is out. A bit before AX, I will give the official day(s), time(s), and meeting place(s).

The schedule is finally out. GET!

Let me know the idea on what time you all want.

Finally the schedule is out.... well if in fact I get all 4 days off (i doubtit), these are the only things I must go to
Thur(Day 1) 10:00pm JAST USA PC Industry Panel
Fri(Day 2) 9:00pm AMVs
Sat(Day 3) 8:00pm Masquerade
All the other times I just go from Panel to Panel or look around at the vendors and take pictures of cosplay, the above are just things I must do nano desu

As soon as I get some further input, I'll start planning from there. Give it a week or so.

Unfortunately, thats not the FULL schedule. We probably wont get until at least next week.

We can try to plan something then.

Actually, the schedule IS out. Some things are TBA, but mostly videos.

Scratch that, then...

Lemme get a look-see at this.

<Edit>

AX Idol finals are on Day 3?

...AW THAT'S BULLSHIT! Power Rangers panel at the same time!!! DX

For group gathering, I'd prefer Dennys but I guess it depends what the majority wants. So what else do you need to know before you come up with the final schedule?

I'm down for day 2

I also think that a group dinner would be better than a breakfast. That way more people will be able attend, namely people like me who can't get up in the morning.

If you do decide on a Fakku breakfast, I would advice against holding it on Day 1 since a lot of people will be getting situated into their hotels or getting badges and the like.

well m down for all 2-4 days and the bfast and dinner thing. if u live in or near the long beach or south gate area let me know i can give a ride my car, it is a 2 seater ...so yeah but count me in.. its been a while since ive been to AX how much is entrance?
Is there going to be any mods from FAKKU there?

None that I know of so far.
