USA's First Idol Convention in 2014
This was announced on facebook late last night, so consider this still in the embryo stages.
<a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/5982463 ... /">Offical facebook Page</a>
Copy Pasta for the few of you on here that don't have facebook, but might be interested. I'll happily update this as the year goes on.
<blockquote class="ipsBlockquote">
When: June 20-21, 2014 (Note: next year, not next week ;))
Where: Kitsap Conference Center at Bremerton Harborside, Bremerton WA
The event is still in its early planning stages, but you guys, this is really happening!
This year is basically a "pilot" con. If this year is successful, it's very possible that we can have a big guest next year, and even bigger guests in the years to come. Imagine, a convention where the very idols we love are welcome and their presence is adored by ALL guests!
What to look forward to at this con:
- Guests
- Cosplay contest
- Karaoke
- Artist alley
- Vendors
- Video rooms
- Panels
- OPV Contest
- Dance
- Workshops
- FUN!
</blockquote>
<div> </div>
Seriously considering going if enough BBS members go. I'd love to have a big BBS meet up and have us all sitting in the corner being all emo and TMIng all over the place.
Considering this is next year, there's plenty of time to stash away some cash.
Someone could go and do a panel about blog!project + projecthello and get some great exposure for the site.

Why do I have to live in and unexciting place where events never happen?
And why do they always have to be so far away?

No I live in mid-west America...where we grow corn, wheat, and beans. No convention would ever dare come near here.

Re: USA's First Idol Convention in 2014
Part of me wants to support it so they can eventually get a major idol I care about, but most of me is so not OK with planes that I don't want to go to Washington unless they get a major idol I care about...

That would be really cool!! It's nice that it's on the weekend. I would totally fly out if people from the BBS would be there and we could hang out. I think a lot of you are on the East coast or midwest though, right?

Re: USA's First Idol Convention in 2014
I would go too! Hell, I'll start a fund now just in case.
BUT no Momoiro Clover, C-ute, JuicyJ, Scandal, MM, or any other smaller idol group I enjoy, no sale! I ain't flying for those akihabara girls!

Re: USA's First Idol Convention in 2014
I would fly for the Akihabara girls but flying directly to Japan is way quicker and cheaper for me. :P
If I don't get to the US by the end of the year, then this is totally going to be my goal. I've wanted to go to America for ages and it's during my University holidays so it'd be perfect.

Re: USA's First Idol Convention in 2014
Considering this is a start up con I doubt they would get anyone we knew at all. But just thinking about meeting other idol lovers and maybe people from the bbs makes up for that.

Re: USA's First Idol Convention in 2014
That's true. I would love to meet the fellow BaBeS! <3 And I've always wanted to go to Seattle, so it's a win-win!

Re: USA's First Idol Convention in 2014
Why are all things Japanese worth going to on the west coast
Re: USA's First Idol Convention in 2014
Because West coast is closer to Asia than the east coast.

Re: USA's First Idol Convention in 2014
I figured as much.
Re: USA's First Idol Convention in 2014
I was drunk when she posted about this on FB and I volunteered to be an MC. Uh...

Re: USA's First Idol Convention in 2014
yuzu, I will attend on the caveat that you MC, and you MC while drunk
HOLD UP! I'M A GEEK THE BIG PARADOX!
Re: USA's First Idol Convention in 2014
This sounds like a plan. Everyone, speak to the organizers!

Re: USA's First Idol Convention in 2014
I want the BBS to have it's own panel at this con. I think it would be such an epic fail of win.

Re: USA's First Idol Convention in 2014
I would go. I'll wait for the thread about it next year.
Re: USA's First Idol Convention in 2014
This is awesome. I actually could go to this event if I wanted too! I live close enough! For once the west coast actually has something good happening!

Re: USA's First Idol Convention in 2014
For once? West coast has more going on for it then the east coast. It was a miracle we got Berryz Koubou over here. Though honestly, I thought they would have gone to Otakon first. ;x

Re: USA's First Idol Convention in 2014
Yeah. Berryz did go to Seattle but i didnt know about them then :( I meant it more as west coast gets something for once. And it's not California or France. Which seem to be the most common destinations outside of Asia.
And keep the few of us not able to have Facebook posted
