A couple of weeks ago, I read on this site that there was going to be a real shindig at the Atlanta DragonCon this year for all browncoat wannabes. Can't find the link now. It said that a party was scheduled for 11:30 in the International Ballroom South. Any word on the latest developments? I'm headin' up there Thursday night to check in. Give me some good news!!

I'm looking at the schedule now. Looks like it's listed as "It's a Shindig" in the International Ballroom North (Hyatt Hotel). Thanks a lot. I'll definately be there!!

My question exactly ;) I plan on being there at about 4pm and that's going to be quite a long night if there's nothing to do!! Can't wait for the Shindig, though, see you all there!!!

add me to the early arrivals of browncoats.
my flight from raleigh and hotel business and such ought to be freeing me up by 4pm or so on thursday.

I had no plans but i did see they have some early concert at the hotels that night and barring anything else was gonna MARTA over to the con hotels and try and find browncoats, eat, hang or maybe try and find a movie if all else fails.

But, if a gaggle of early browncoats wanted to convene at say, the marriot lobby around sixish for joint food acquisition and pre-con minglery, that would be great too.

Its reallt TOO DAMN BAD that the screening of serenity was on the 31st and not the 1st.

grrr...

May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.


The wife & I will be there Thursday as well.

We will be getting together w/ the other Richmond area Browncoats to hang out, eat, drink & be merry.

What we all need is a rallying point & a time so those that are interested can get together & hook up to go do something.

Any suggestions?

Since I have to work Thursday, I won't be able to get up to Atlanta until around 8:30 or so that evening. By the time I get checked in and get my DragonCon pass over at the Hilton, most of you browncoats will be several beers deep into your third six-pack. I guess I'll wait until Friday night to meet everyone. Friday's gonna be a BD day and Friday night looks like it's gonna be an even Bigger Damn night. Remember, FIREFLY airs every Friday evening at 7:00 here in GA. If you do arrange a get-together, remember to leave word at the DragonCon info desk. That way, all of us latecomers have a point of contact for the latest word. See ya there!

Hey all,
I'm departing Charlotte around noon, given a possible stop for gas (*shudder*) and food, I expect to check in at Westin around 4:30 and check in for early registration of the Con around 5:00. Fan Table setup would be taking place around that time (Maybe???) so I'll check that area and around the escalators as mentioned above.
Perhaps a Marillion T-shirt will make me recognizable. See you all soon.

Hey Jadehand, will be good to see you again! But the fan table won't be up till Friday! I think the folks were talking about meeting in the Hilton. I'll be a little later myself, so I will try to scope everyone out. Everyone has some sort of Firefly shirt to wear right? Or a shiny Browncoat pin or lanyard to show your a Browncoat? Yes, I will have them with me, too.

I aim to misbehave!

I'm getting in Thursday afternoon around 3, staying at the Westin. So, should we look for other Browncoats in the Hilton lobby at 5:30? We need to establish a definite place and time.

I'll be in a Blue sun t-shirt.

My plane gets in from Dallas (the connection place between L.A. and Atlanta) at 8:15ish-PM.I'm MARTA-ing to the hotel, so I think I'll be arriving at the Hilton (where I'm staying) around 9ish. If I find fellow Browncoats, shiny, if not, the next day will be fine. I'll be wearing a t-shirt with Kaylee's umbrella in front and "Ever Sail in a Firefly?", and the Firefly in silhouette and the word "Wanna?" in the back. And my Serenity button, of course.

=D

I couldn't believe how many Browncoats showed up for the Shindig, but it was a good time.

So many Browncoats I didn't even stick around. They should have KNOWN we would show up in massive numbers. Hope all that WERE able to attend had a wonderful time :)

Thanks so much for posting those already!

Yes, I should be napping. Or working - or something. Two hours sleep and a hangover. But it was SUCH a funy party and thank you to all our shiny Browncoats that came out and made it so great.

And to my volunteers - I will post later in various boards - but for now with my sleep deprived brain I will just post here and say...

YOU GUYS ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love,
Cary

Jewel and Adam showed up at the Shindig! Adam didn't show up until the very end but it was still great. Jadehand ended up hanging out with him. He even has the pictures to prove it!

I wished I could have seen Adam at the Shindig, but my back was killing me, and it was time to be in my bunk, so I bolted after 90 minutes or so. It was a blast!
