SoCal Dopefest?
Anybody want to organize one? It's been forever. I'm not even mildly volunteering, but I'd spread the word.

I'm game to attend. Not yet in a mental state to organize. But I'm happy to volunteer Silver Tyger Girl because I'm a giver that way.

What, exactly, is involved in organizing? Not that I'm volunteering, mind you.

Generally speaking, you need to be the one who starts putting forth suggestions (in terms of date and location), keeping track of what other people suggest, making a determination about when to cut off new ideas and how to make a final decision. And once date and time have been set, you need to track how many folks are coming in the event that reservations need to be made, and make yourself available by cell for those that need help with directions or other miscellany. Also, you need to be able to handle the awesomeness that is Silenus' Attire.

Sounds complicated, but I can tell you I've been at least partially responsible for organizing a couple of 'fests, and all of the LA-area folks are very cooperative and helpful, and these things have a way of working themselves out.

I mean, not that you're volunteering...

I promised Asimovian that I would do my best to make it to this next one so...I will try my best to make it if someone else volunteers to organize it.

If people can hold on to their hats for a couple of weeks until I get settled in my new place, I can take it on. But I certainly don't mind if someone else wants to make it go.

I would prefer if we all wait until after Memorial Day at least, since I am booked fairly solid until then.

Mid- to late-June i could do, but i'm going to be away from late May until June 15, then from June 28 until about July 12. Anytime after July 12 would be fine.

Don't have one while i'm away! I missed the last one, and i want to meet all the SoCal Dopers. <insert pouting smiley here>

There is a Vegas DopeFest set for July 11-12. Comic-Con is July 24-26. Other than those dates we're free.

Mid to late June is also do-able.

Any of the first three; Pasadena's a bit out of the way for me.

I'm not especially fussy. If it's a restaurant, some vegetarian options on the menu would be nice.

Of course, you know what my suggestion is going to be!


Costa Mesa (Yardhouse), either day, June 20, 21, 27 or 28. I have more door prizes!

I would prefer the 27 or 28 to 20 or 21 because I will be out of town the weekend of the 21/22 and would once again miss the fest.

Of course, if none of you want me there...

I'll vote for Saturday.

That Costa Mesa Yardhouse looks pretty good. Decent selection of food for us vegetarian types, and it's also (relatively) close to San Diego.

As i said, any day of the 20/21 or 27/28 is fine with me. The latter weekend might be a little bit better, because i'm planning to drive to San Francisco around then anyway, and could stay overnight in LA with a friend before heading up to the Bay Area the next day.

I going to be in San Diego for business the week of June 15, but I thought about flying out that Saturday (13th) to play tourist. I would love to meet some SoCal Dopers, so I vote for June 14th.

While not great, 6/14 in Costa Mesa would be fine. I can be a designated driver from the near-Glendale-L.A. area or from San Diego (not sure which one I'll be in at the time).

Can't organize, but will probably attend. Any weekend in June after the 6th is fine with me, unless it's Father's Day. I can't attend 4th of July weekend because I'm already going to Anime Expo that weekend. Yard House in Costa Mesa would be fine, if I could carpool with somebody. Long Beach would be cool too, if it's near the Blue Line station. Of course, all of this hinges on whether I can arrange child care for the Princess.

So far, the top contenders are:

Orange County (e.g. Costa Mesa)

Sunday 14 June 2009
Saturday 27 June 2009
Sunday 28 June 2009

Restaurant (Yardhouse)

Some things to consider:

Sunday 21 June 2009 is Father's Day in the USA

If we go to the Yardhouse ( http://www.yardhouse.com - warning: homepage plays music) there are other locations in Orange County.

Yardhouse Brea Brea Downtown
160 South Brea Blvd., Brea, CA 92821 Phone: (714) 529-9273

Yardhouse Costa Mesa Triangle Square
1875 Newport Boulevard. , Costa Mesa, CA 92627 Phone: (949) 642-0090

Yardhouse Newport Beach Fashion Island
849 Newport Center Drive, Newport Beach, CA 92660 Phone: (949) 640-9273

Yardhouse Irvine Irvine Spectrum
71 Fortune Dr., Irvine, CA 92618 Phone: (949) 753-9373

Yardhouse Long Beach Shoreline Village
401 Shoreline Village Dr., Long Beach, CA 90802 Phone: (562) 628-0455

Also there are Yardhouse Restaurants in Los Angeles and Pasadena

The one in Costa Mesa is fine, but if people want to walk around the restaurant before or after the Dopefest, it is the location with the least amount of attractions surrounding it. For example, the ones in Irvine or Newport Beach are in shopping centers with many more things to see.

Put me down for the 14th and Long Beach also. The Long Beach Yardhouse is quite nice and is in the revitalized downtown area of Long Beach.

If we do the Yard house it has to be Costa Mesa with a field trip to the liquor store.
I'm open pretty much any time.

Ooh I'd like to come! The OC is a bit far for me but I'll probably make the drive anyway. Put me down for whatever you guys decide. Hopefully it's not as far as the OC though

If it's on the 26th, I'll be (hopefully) out of town. Just depends on if my boss finally decides on if I can have the time off or not. I asked for it over a month ago...

The Yardhouse in Newport Beach is not that far from the one in Costa Mesa. Just saying.

Well if it makes it less close, my preference is now the 14th over the 27th by a good bit, so take my vote off the 27th (28th too).

My vote, late at this point, would be Pasadena on the 27th. But odds are that I'll attend whenever and wherever.

Good Lord. I've been known to kill a thread or two in my day, but a Dopefest thread? I apparently don't know my own strength.

Bump, in case you're all still recovering from Memorial Day hangovers.
