| Vegas: I'm in!
This will be my first TS show in 2 years. That's a lot of pent-up rocking I've got to get out.
I'm geographically lucky this time, as Vegas is a quick 4-hour drive from where I'm currently sitting (LA). Here's my Saturday:
5:30am: Guzzle coffee.
5:45am: Hit the road! iPod set to "Twisted Mix" in case the coffee doesn't work.
10:00am: Arrive Vegas; beg hotel for early check-in.
10:01am: Nap.
12:30pm: Drive as far from The Strip as possible for lunch.
2:00pm: Ride Sahara's "Speed" roller coaster (short but devastating linear-induction launched coaster).
2:30pm: AVOID ALL GAMBLING (because I'm bad at it).
3:00pm: 2nd Nap (need lots of energy for later).
5:00pm: Get Ready To Rock.
5:30pm: Pre-rocking dinner.
7:30pm: To Hard Rock.
8:00pm: Doors!
9:00pm: *TS*!!!
11:00pm: Crash from pure exhaustion.
...
6:00am: More coffee, drive home before labor day traffic explodes.
Yes, I'm excited. See you all there.

Location: Toronto, Canada | Dave,
So happy to hear that you are finally getting to see TS one more time. I made the same 4 hour drive on Monday from Toronto to Detroit, though I only got see the last 20 min of the show! Wish I was there in Vegas. Have a blast!

| Hi All!
It's T-minus 4 hours 21 minutes until Twisted brings down Vegas. I just had the pleasure of meeting Canadian SMF Cindee (totally randomly in the Hard Rock parking lot). What a nice chick!
I also poked my head into "The Joint," and I can tell you this is an awesome venue.
If all goes as planned, I'll give some kind of quick report before hitting the sack tonight. Tomorrow night at the latest.
Luatikko, Cyndi and Corey - great to hear from you! And Twistedbear, nice to meet you. Thanks all for the well-wishes.
Oh, hey, did you all know you can rent that movie I wrote and directed, DEEPWATER (complete with Dee Snider cameo), in the US now? I should post a full post about that sometime when I've got more time. But anyway, it's on the new release shelves just about everywhere, Blockbuster, Netflix, and most of the smaller places too. Check it out!!!

| They RAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWKKKKED!!!!!!
Too exhausted to write much now. I met even MORE cool folks from the forum here before the show.
All around fantastic night. I'm sure my fellow SMFs will write more about it soon, as I probably will too.

Location: Newcastle UK | Hi Dave,
Fantastic that you got to a TS show after a 2 year wait. Good to see that you enjoyed, but then again how could you not.
Just checked out amazon uk, no sign of Deepwater on DVD there yet. Any idea when it will get a UK release.
All the best Richard UK SMF |
