Any AZ Firefly Fans out there? Anyone aware of any AZ Shindigs? I live in the "West Valley", in Phoenix, but I'm willing to travel a bit, if hubby's work schedule permits.

I here, smack dab in the middle of downtown Phoenix. Glad to know there's someone out there to rant about the heat with.

My Wife and I are in San Diego (about two hours south of LA) so barring major catastrophe we will be at the whatever premier shindig there is.

We also have quite a few friends in Phoenix and travel there several times a year, so if any shindiging is going on there, please let me know, just in case we can make it.

By the way, anyone planning on going to next month's Comic-Con in San Diego? So far as I have been able to tell there won't be much if any Firefly/Serenity presence, but I have heard that Joss attends fairly regularly.

Anybody wanna try for a shindig at the originaler drafthouses down in Austin? I don't know how much they charge to rent out a theater at the Lakecreek or Village drafthouses but I'm in if we get enough people together.

Seems like a long trip to take and I know none of my friends here will go for it and I wanna be there when they experience firefly for the first time (unless I can finally tie em up and force them to watch the dvds

).

Plus then I'd know some more Austinites. Just moved her in January so I pretty much just know co-workers.

If a Raleigh thing is happening, that'd be great, even tho parking at the Rialto is horrendous. I definitely think I could sacrifice for the occasion and our beloved Firefly.

FROM CHUCKYBONES:
UPDATE *** UPDATE *** UDPATE *** UPDATE
Okay, Browncoats, here's the latest on the Houston Shindig.

We can't really get a theater at the Alamo Drafthouse for eight hours on an afternoon or evening, especially a Friday afternoon or evening. Mornings and early afternoon they're great about, but evenings are their bread-and-butter. BIG bucks.

Plan right now is for us to have the theater from 9 or 10 Friday morning, April 22nd, until 3pm. We'd watch the Serenity pilot, Objects in Space, maybe Ariel, and we'd have a costume contest and possibly an auction. We'd also like to have filking and just some general "hanging out" time.

At 3:00, we'd buy out the theater's tickets and then we'd sit and watch "Serenity" the movie. Currently, this is looking like $15 to $20 per person to attend and enjoy, and the price should include drinks (non-alcoholic). There would be free goodies, and we're hoping to have some other cool stuff.

These plans are subject to change; we're checking on the possibility of a midnight show, either Thursday night or Friday night. The theater is in a shopping mall, so we'll have to see. Also note: we dropped off a copy of the DVD's with the Alamo Drafthouse events coordinator! Ha ha ha! Convert and conquer from within! I'm hoping she passes them on to her boss, he's supposed to like scifi action/adventure stuff. If we hook him, we're SO in.

Anyway, keep checking this thread. As we get more details, we'll post them here. But we're shooting for one big-@$$ shindig, suitable for the premiere of "Serenity." Let us know if you think you can attend.
