So aside from Me, AnotherFireflyFan and Soul of Serenity, who are the DelMarVa + Washington and Southern PA brown coats? Is there any interest in a local shindig, and who's planning to got to what con's when and which movies in what theatres.

I am master of the convoluted sentence.

There's a Baltimore, DC and NOVA Firefly group on meetup.com that all meet regularly. And yes, there are some plans for a shindig in the works.

One Baltimorean Browncoat, check.

Hmm, crab feast shindig? Would be most appropriate!

I think I will add cursing and the hurling about of things to my repertoire.

I see you already got me on the list. ;)

Yeah a shindig sometime would be great. I occasionally go to the No Va meetups (they're usually in or near DC)

The crabfeast is a must. Unless the chesapeake blues go extinct this year.

Beautiful crab, the chesapeake blue, excellent flavor!

Anyway... crab feast shindig is a must. Any input on the where's and when's? Patapsco River Valley State Park is lovely this time of year (most of it anyway) and there are a million places to get some steamed crabs. They even have pavillions to let out. Hmmm.

Oh. AlienZooKeeper is local as well...and radegund, they sat a panel with us...

Patapsco's the one on the Baltimore/Howard county line? That would be shiny

And I have a good crab place about 200 feet from my house.

So that means the big, bad, awful question - when? Scheduling things is a pain for me, I'm already solid for April and very little May left.

Oh, and I bought my ticket for WW Philly!

Another Baltimorean Browncoat here.

While I'm on, I'd love for all Browncoats in the area to come see me as Benedick in Much Ado About Nothing at UMBC.

You can find details on it at www.umbc.edu/theatre/muchado

We're running for another two weekends and it's a great show, which I have the lead role in. Please come and support me if you can!

So, Rob. 'yoU Made a Bad Choice' too?

Break a leg. Paige and I will try and come out for this. It's one of my favorites, and lord knows it'll be beautiful if it's done at UMBC. The theatre department always creates wonderful sets and costumes (sometimes trending towards the bizarre, don't know if you were around for Agamemnon) and the actors are all very strong. It's really saying something about you to have a lead in that very competitive program.

Late May at the Pavillion in Orange Grove/Avalon by the swinging bridge? I could contact the park about the Pavillion if I had a head count? Who's game? This would be near UMBC, right off of 195 and RT 1.

Or any other suggestions?

The place is fine, but the timing...assuming we're talking a weekend, all I have open is May 21. I'll be at Balticon for Memorial Day Weekend.

I'll also be at balticon... I like the 21st as a date. Can anyone else make that? Should we push it into summer?

I think the 21st is Preakness.

YAY!! That would be great if you could make it. Hang around after the show and say hi. We usually make it out to meet and greet friends and family about 10-15 mins after the show ends!

It is indeed Preakness Day. So who has the portable TV?

Actually, as long as there's a TV or radio around, it still works for me, but there may be others who are going.

The only other dates I have in May are the 7th & 8th, but the 8th is Mother's Day.

We may also have to look into some sort of meet-up at Balticon. I'll be in the art show...all weekend. Barely left it last year.

June should be fine, as long as it isn't the 4th or the 11th. But I think we'll all be occupied on the 4th

I must admit to ignorance regarding Balticon's room party policy and such forth. Basically, as long as it doesn't coincide with the art auction, just tell me where & when to show up

I'll have to look into it, but I think the policy is, if it's not an open party it doesn't have to be on the party floor and if it isn't on the party floor don't wake the neighbors. I'll check with Renfield.

Balticon usually has an artists' reception Friday night, and the auction/tear-down/sales frenzy is Sunday afternoon. Other than that, I'm free

Now, besides Balticon and a crab shindig, we ought to see who's going to Philly and what we can arrange by way of carpooling, etc. I'm going up for the Saturday only. Anyone else?
