The San Diego Plan Nine Deprecation [Jul. 2nd, 2008|02:05 pm]

[mood | excited]

Just booked my flight so I'm VERRA excited now!

For my fellow Comic-Con attendies interested in seeing Rifftrx live, here is teh info:



If you want to go on your own, feel free to get yer own tickets at either time.

BUT - if you wanna go in a group (even a tiny one), let's figure out who all's going by Monday (unless we're afraid that's too late, in which case - tomorrow nightish?). Once we have that settled, we can all paypal me (or anyone really, I don't care) and I or the designated buyer will buy all the tickets at once so they seats are together!

Tickets are from ticket master so they are $25 PLUS a $6.25 convenience charge PLUS a $2.50 Building Facility charge (whatever that is) which equals $33.75 (Anyone know if there's tax? Also, I may check that phone number in the info to see if they're any cheaper.)

I personaly prefer the 9:30 time because A.) I already know a few people hitting that one and B.) It'll allow us time to milk every last second of the Exhibitor's hall and Panels.

Anyway - I already got a few responses from those interested in my last entry, but feel free to speak up again or for the first time!

WELCOME! YAY!

Sadly I dont' think your doppelganger is coming - I may spend the night with him in LA on Wed and Sun, but he's probably not coming down to SD :(

California does have a sales tax - the base is 7.5%, and then each county is slightly different, and that may be calculated into the totals.

Where is Joel?... 8-(

ah, thanks - also, joel's here: http://cinematictitanic.com/wpmu/index.php

they do the more typical MST movies (As Rifftrax does a lot of modern movies NORMALLY), but the riffs aren't as funny IMHO - I still really like them, I just laugh more consistently specifically when Mike, Kevin, and Bill are together (When it's just two out of the three, it's about the same hit rate as CT for me - i guess those three are just a winning combo for me :D)

Nah, I can't go. Kids first week back at school and it's ususally hectic, just trying to get them used to the schedule again.
But yay Joel!! Yay Tom Servo!! Yay Crow T. Robot!
I'm very jealous! 8-)

I thought I heard they were going to do the 'Once More with Feeling' singalong too. I is sad....I had tickets to that last year and then they canceled it.
Anyway....
I hope you all have an awwwesome time!!
One of these days I'm gonna go.

Hey thanks! :)

Looks like I'll be hitting the 9:30pm show with a friend. Are you still planning to get tickets all together or should I go ahead and order some myself?

Do whichever's more convenient for you, but yes - I am still going to try to get all the tickets together. Probably this afternoon after one more post. :)

Sweet, will do.

I'm surprised I haven't seen you mention this yet too... Or maybe I'm blind and I missed your total geekout over it...

Oh, I plan to - I just found out about it yesterday and held my tongue cuz I'm going by myself and my wife's been an MST3k fan longer than I have and I felt REALLY guilty. :)

She's aware now, though, so expect that to come :D

Hey - next friday will you be unbroke enough to go? because two things - we can maybe put off getting group tickets for a bit OR worst comes to worst, get them next friday and you sit a bit apart from the group - i already know a few people with tickets so they won't be with the group either, but same general area probably.
