KumoriCat Ball - Saturday, April 24th in Portland
« on: March 19, 2010, 06:08:14 pm »
(Thanks to superjaz for naming the event  :))

Our first mini-event for 2010 will be an anime music inspired dance Saturday, 24th from 6pm to 10pm at:

Multnomah Art Center
(see link for directions)
7688 Southwest Capitol Highway
Portland, OR 97219-2489

There is not a strict dress code (no ripped jeans, flip-flops or t-shirts), and cosplay is encouraged as always (don't forget the cat ears!).

Minimum age to attend the dance is 14 years old.  14 to 17 year-olds attending the dance need to bring a parental permission form, and all attendees are required to show ID.  If you do not have some form of ID (state issued, school ID, etc), you will not be admitted to the dance.

Tickets will be $10 if you pre-reg, $15 at the door.  For those that pre-reg, you will be entered in drawing for a door prize, and you won't have to wait in line to get into the dance.  Pre-reg is available here, and is open until Weds, April 21st.

As Dawn said, we will be awarding prizes for best use of theme, so have fun with the cat ears.

We hope to see you there :)

In that case I'm hi-jacking this thread for music requests.  What should we play?  Links to artists and or albums welcome.  I'm personally craving "Would you like to date my avatar?" and Vinyl Shakerz "One night in Bangkok"

You can't forget David Bowie.

I mean, it would be BAMF with Gaga, Ke$Sha, AND David Bowie.

If there's a lack of David Bowie, I have three of his soundtracks on my PSP that I can easily put on someones computer.

Fear not for I own both the platinum collection (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Platinum-Collection-David-Bowie/dp/B000AMUU94) and the Labyrinth soundtrack.  Bowie will be represented.

3oh!3 and GaGa are a must, kesha, not so much, imo. But it will happen and there are people who dislike all 3....
Looking forward to attending this dance in some fashion (working or just regular attendance)

From what I understand it's you be fourteen or older to play but you'll need a parental permission slip filled out and some form of id and for those 18+ just need id.  I think were shooting for 6pm start time because buses stop running at 10pm which gives us 4 hours to get a groove on.  I think general con rules apply to the dress code.

Jackie correct me if I'm wrong...

I have a question about the dress code. I have this shirt that I got and it would be great for a rave/dance like this and I am wondering if I can wear it but it does fall under the t-shirt category.



I would like to wear it :) But I understand if you don't want me to.

Looks like the majority of TD Bro Chad is going to be going to this :3 I'm a little excited.

Music Recommendations~ I'm ust going to list a bunch of stuff I think would be awesomely cool.

If at all possible it would be cool to play some Lonely Island music for laughs. (It's pretty heavy on the cursing, but I bet there are some edited versions out there) I'm on a Boat and Jizz in my Pants are popular.

For some regular dance music Ratatat pleeeeeaaaaaase.
-Seventeen Years
-Wild Cat
-Lex
Pretty my anything of theirs is amazing. I especially like their Hip Hop remixes but those may again be on the the cursing side a bit.

Seconding, thirding, whatevering Lady Gaga music.

If possible, songs by The Adventures of Duane and Brand0. They do nerdcore raps to oldschool video games.

GIRLS GENERATION! Korean Pop Band that is pretty popular right now. Gee is one of their most popular singles. There's also Oh!, Run Devil Run, and other things I can't think of right now.

Daft Punk is a must. Something other then Harder, better, faster, stronger though. (One more time, Around the world, Digital Love)

Cha Cha Slide.

Anamanaguchi. "Plays loud, fast music with a hacked NES", ummm for songs, Helix Nebula, Power Supply, Sting Operation.

And anything else I could suggest is probably not appropriate/isn't good to dance to/and isn't stuff the most people would know or like.

I'll probably be going with TD Bro Chad, and I want to suggest AURAL VAMPIRE. They're a Japanese band with awesome gothic-rave-like music. My favorite songs are Vampire Ecstasy and Hot Blood Workout.
Their mp3s are a little bit hard to get a hold of, but I have most of their songs on my computer, so let me know if you need any of them.

If you can burn them to disc I'll play them.  My CD players will work with MP3s as long as there not buried under a lot of directories.  Although I like using regular CD files better for quality.
