Color me stupid, but what does NEO mean? My brain isn't working yet today. And when is the VA show?

Thanks for the info. I hadn't heard any of that. It sucks, of course, that I paid up to renew and get a code--and got a Horizon code--and couldn't use it because all of the shows are so far from me. I mean, NO shows in OH, Penn, KY, IN, MI, etc.? That's a huge section of the country out of...

Haven't been on in a while and am wondering if there's any news--even rumors!--of 2010 show dates yet. I didn't use my pre-sale code for any of the 2009 shows (none were even close to where I live), so I'm wondering if 2010 will go on sale before my code expires. Ah, well.

I can't agree enough with upthread posters about being nice to those in line around you. I actually baked cookies and shared with our line mates (I also had a bunch of extra ONE wristbands and shared them around), and it came in handy when it was time to go check into our hotel and drop off our...

My sister and I were on the rail for a show right in front of Larry and Bono during LAPOE. Bono bent over, a stick in each hand, right toward us. But, being height challenged, we were screwed. A person on each side of us had a longer reach and snatched those puppies right out of his hands. So if...

I don't know about camping, but as far as bathroom breaks the best thing is to BE NICE to the people around you. Make friends so that they'll keep your spot, and do the same for them in return.

OK, I'll bite :) My sister and I did GA in '05 in Cleveland... in December. It was COLD! We were #130 and #131; Miroslava, IIRC, was "in charge" of the sign-in list. We brought chairs and sleeping bags to keep warm, and we were outside from 9 a.m.-ish until around 3 or so, when it was time to...

You know what, I didn't explain myself well and you're right--I sound like an ass. And for that I apologize. I was talking about the "universal" me, not about you specifically. My point is that people are so caught up in what they're doing and what they want that their actions cross the line...

I remember you! I haven't thought much about the Cgicago show. I'm waiting to see if any OH shows will be announced for 2010 first. I've got a presale code, so I'll be using that when the right show is announced. If you decide for Chicago--good luck!

How nice for you. Those of us who have been bothered by someone yakking away will try to ignore it, then. I just used it as an example of ways that people are less than courteous when in crowds. Forgive me for breaking the rules of conversation. Oh for fuck's sake. I give up. I was throwing...

From the email we got, you can use the code for the upcoming presales for Europe OR US dates for 2009. From what Sicy found out upthread, there's a chance that we won't be able to use our current code for 2010 shows AND we might not get a new code for 2010. But who knows.

I get ya. But the fact is that while the idea of "live and let live" is nice, when person 1's actions infringe upon person 2's viewing or listening of an event, person 1 has crossed the line. It's hard to enjoy the show, no matter how much you try to pay attention to it, when someone is yelling...

Hi Seth in Dayton! :wave: Who else here is waiting for 2010 show announcements?

No way, dude. Too easy for the teacher to see. Tether ball courts!

Yeah, and then all you do is SCREAM into the phone and annoy everyone around you!
