COF Metro DC Area Get Together?

"I am contemplating a gathering for local COF peeps here in the metropolitan Washington DC area. Since DC was the first date of last Summer's 4Tour, the wonderful "COF get-together" momentum had not yet begun. I would love to meet other peeps nearby.
But before I go through all of the trouble planning something, I want to see if there is any interest. The gathering would most likely be during a weekend day. It would be located in the Northern Virginia area, just outside the DC beltway (2 walking miles from Metrorail). Interested folks should e-mail me no later than Friday, August 21." (Thanks Kate)

  2. I'd love to go, as long as it's on a weekend we don't have my girlfriend's son. I'm about 1 hour away. Maybe we should do one in Baltimore too! Hell, COF get togethers EVERYWHERE!

  8. How about we do both? Baltimore and NOVA? Where in Baltimore? Ottobar? I have a lot of other connections in Fells too.

  9. We can just turn them into COF Curedrinks?

  10. Ottobar sounds good. Pretty laid back. So when is all this?

  11. Ahhh, just in theory right now. Let's see what Kate comes up with. I don't think Baltimore would happen for at least 6 months. I want a live cure tribute band. I'd like to see it at Ram's Head Live, as long as there is enough interest. I've got a few musicians on board already for a live act. But the band would need rehearsal time before the night. I'm still up for Kate's NOVA night too! Any excuse to drink with our Cure friends is a good one!

  14. I'd be so interested in what plans you make. Myself and a couple of other DM fans are contemplating having a DM get together in Vancouver as there was no show here and some didn't make it down to Seattle ...I may email you to see how your plan goes...

  16. Hello, all!

    Just a brief update: I am very excited by everyone's enthusiasm.

    I have replied to everyone's e-mails, so far. If you are interested in a DC/northern Virginia event, keep the e-mails coming! :)

    If someone wants to organize something for Baltimore, that would be fun, too.

    I will wait a few more days for people to have a chance to write in, and then we can take it from there.

    Thanks, again!

  18. Ryan, I don't live there, but I was just in that area last month, so, if you and other fans in the area wouldn't mind meeting in a halfway point such as Hamilton, or perhaps Toronto, I'd definitely be up for that.

    By the way, to those of you who know me, it's Shawn. Blogger hasn't let me post using my LJ account for over two months!
