Time to Start Planning The CGE2K12 DP After-Party

[ianoid]

I would strongly encourage bringing Rock Band. It's an awesome party game. Either the two musics clash a little bit, it's not like we have some sick giant sound system coming aside from the seasoned mix, or we turn down one to play the other. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE bring Rock Band (3?). Hopefully you'd have Drums, 2 guitars and 3 mics. I can bring my USB stick with a ton of DLC if it would help. And I can bring Lips mics if we need to. If anyone has Mic stands, that is always an awesome addition.

You'll be surprised how you can get away with playing multiple musics in a space.

Is anyone focusing on other multiplayer games, like Chu Chu Rocket (and SF Rush 2049 for DC!), Warlords/Medieval Madness, Super Bomberman (TG vs SNES?) or whatever is 4 player?

My other comment is, don't be classic obsessed with the game titles. We all play them. It's a great opportunity for people to see any type of multiplayer, whether it's the latest NBA Jam on 360, or Video Olympics. Let's interact!

The big thing with me not wanting to bring it is pure laziness. If I can get one or 2 of you to help me grab all that shit during the auction so that I can avoid multiple trips (and also when the party is wrapping up), then I can bring it. I have rock band 3 (no keytar because I am lazy and never bought 1), but i have drums (with the cymbals for pro mode), 2 guitars (one wired, one wireless), 1 mic and a mic stand. Yeah, that is why I was thinking of not bringing it since that it alot of shit to lug around and if there is a dj, there is a chance that you will be competing for volume, which is never fun. I mean, I don't give a shit really. If you guys really want me to bring it, I can, but I am not going to make a really big effort with it or anything.

I can be as much help as an intoxicated person can be (not super drunk, but haven't been to Vegas in about 10 years). I would be willing to pitch in some cash for some good booze/beer. I'm sure there's a costco, trader joes and/or bevmo near. Ha!
Maybe someone who likes some of the stuff I do can split something with me.
Johnnie Walker Black (or above is what I usually drink)
Good scotch, definitely no Glenfiddich Bleh!
Maker's or other good straight bourbon
Jagermeister! is always good

Beer wise, My favorite is probably New Belgium Trippel.
but good micro brew lager is nice when its summer/hot.

I will be in town sometime friday if there is anyone who wants to meet up/gamble/drink etc. Once we get there, I'll have a drink in hand at all times, except for maybe while playing some games.
I think I have some cups/straws I can donate.
If anyone wants, can PM me for my info.

[digitpress Jim]

That would be epic! The more people we have Saturday night willing to pitch in for food and booze the better and much appreciated. As previously mentioned on here, let's really focus with going with the flow at this point and let the After Party be what it will be. That being said, Sega Ages you better bring your Rock Band set up We are all chanting your name.

Key focus, beer and food on time Thanks everyone, see ya in Vegas!

Okay I'll commit to pitching in for some Jaggermiester and Monsters for some mixed drink action. $20 okay?

Oh, was wondering, if the off chance that somebody gets completely wasted, would it be possible for someone to crash on the couch or something. I personally am not planning on it, but I was wondering what the stance was on this.

[skaar]

In Vegas the tradition is to pass out in hotel hallways, sir.

Is there "on time" in Vegas? Drunk time I know very well. Approx what time is this supposed to go down? Hopefully its close to my room!

I can pick up a bottle of Jager at Costco on my way as long as I know someone is willing to throw down. Send me your info.

Kinda glad I don't remember much of that, but I know it happend!

Well, I'd be up for it. Who else would be?

[MeTmKnice]

I would be willing to help bring up to the suite, most likely. But too intoxicated to bring it down late that night.

[Sothy]

I'll bring the crystal meth and a copy of checkered flag for jaguar.

Even though I'm bringing an iPod playlist to bump some after-party tunes, I agree that Rock Band is much better for this sort of party than whatever is going to be pumping out of a meager sound system.

So seriously, don't worry about "the DJ." Quite frankly, your DJ is also a singer in a band and would rather belt out some tunes on Rock Band. BRING IT! :-)

If you don't play something off of Pretty Eight Machine by Inverse Phase the party will be a lose...

A couple tracks are already in the playlist, in-between the Best of Bootie sections! http://bootiemashup.com/bestof for the curious

[SegaAges]

Well cool breeze. I am sure there will be somebody there that will let me drop that stuff off in the suite before the auction since the auction is always an awesome time.

I will probably be rocking a really bright colored shirt (probably my Jet Set Radio shirt which is really bright yellow with massive red Japanese text on the front).

I am not exactly hard to miss. Just say something to me if you see me and we can run out to my car and grab the stuff during the show and drop it all off in the suite.

I forgot who said they had more mics, but it is a good call to bring those with you since I only have 1.

I figured, if it is cool with the people who got the suite, that since it is an after party and it could last all night, that I would just leave my shit in there until Sunday and pick it all up then (unless you need the suite cleared out by a certain time).

EDIT: I booked myself a room (that way if I end up getting a little fucked up during the day or after party, I do not have to drive all the way down to my place), so I am just going to put my stuff there and worry about grabbing it whenever

[ianoid]

Of course you will.


And in the spirit of DP name tags, are name tags being made for the show as has been done in the past? Kind of late, I know, but would be cool to have those for the party.

[digitpress Jim]

SegaAges,

Totally man! Just hit me up at the show, I'll have the room key to the suite so I can let people up in advance to drop things off. Like you, I wont be hard to miss, just look for the guy in a white suite I'm also managing the Museum so pop in their as well if you can't find me elsewhere. We have the suite for a whole night, I believe the check out is Sunday by noon so please have whatever you need picked up before then and you are golden!

Also, the after party will officially start a half hour after the auction ends at 10:00pm. So it is crucial we have booze before 10:30pm. At or before 10:30pm we have to put the order in for Pizza. Also, sign up sheet and entry fee/donations will be collected at the Digital Press booth. Thanks everyone. We are going to get so wasted!

[Frankie_Says_Relax]

Last weekend I discovered the taste sensation that is cookie-dough flavored vodka.

I hope that the local liquor stores have some, because that's the only thing I hope to be drinking at the after party.

[Lady Jaye]

Please please please make sure to NOT have that horrible vodka drink that was served at the 2005 CGE afterparty, that red and blue crap that tasted like cough syrup! :P

I know nothing of this red and blue beverage but if I can get my hands on the Cookie Vodka, I will share with all who wish to imbibe.

Slightly off-topic. But I will be donating some note pads/pens from my work. Can meet up with you friday sometime? Can use them at the booth/after-party, whatever.

[Sothy]

Stu was possibly gonna have some name tags made but not 100% sure.

[yummysmokedham]

More than happy to kick in some extra money for some booze. I am playing in a informal RBI Baseball tournament right after the auction but I doubt with my skills I will make it very long . Can I just drop some extra money off at the DP table Saturday?

I picked up a handle of Jager, and if you are in to that kind of think you can kick some money my way. Cash preferred, but i do take CC @ 5% extra. (=
Should have something else as well.

[yummysmokedham]

Should have something else as well.

hmmm interesting

[SegaAges]

Jim, getting it by noon on sunday should be no problem. i just figured that if the party is still rocking and i want to venture off and do something else, that for the night, i do not have to worry about taking all of that back to my hotel room if I decide to leave before it ends.

Heh, I don't drink and I think I actually want to taste this... I might get a bottle just for that purpose (knowing the rest won't just go to waste... )
