ConTraption '94, anyone?
| 
Apr 22 05:35 UTC 1994 |
Anyone going to ConTraption? I've lost my advance mailing and haven't seen
anything on it in this conference. So here's an item just for that. Would
someone please post the details- particularly where it is, how to get there,
and contact numbers. Who's running this one, anyway?

well enough. Didn't get to much programming or enough music, but I saw the
people I wanted to see. For a change, Michael was able to be there with me
the whole weekend. Timothy sure had a good time. Gareth did pretty well too,
considering the number of new places and people. Then there's the problem
of catching up on sleep... Who else was there? What did you like best?

I didn't get to go myself, but I hope to make the next one. I am glad to
hear that you had fun.
Do you know when the next one is?

I think the next local convention is Baccanal in July. It's a relaxacon
with NO programming. Just hand out and see the people you came to see.
I believe MarCon is in Columbus on May 14-16.

It's in Minneapolis in September, which is why I can't go.
Can't even think of beginning to afford it. >8(

pegasus, I work at Meijer. I can't afford $45 *or* hotel,
never mind both. Unless I can get my dad to pay, like he
did for my recent Cedar Point trip. >8)

Pattie, are you getting Forrester's Package, Frank's Package,
or Torgo's Package?

We purchased Forrester's Package, and I'm looking forward to the costume
ball! :)

From "Satellite News" (formerly "The Binding Polymer")
Spring 1994 edition
Forrester's Package: This little beauty includes 2 nights at the Radisson
South, where the ConventioCon takes place; admission to the convention,
including the glittering Costume Ball, admission to the Live show on
Saturday night Sept. 17, a handsome ConventioCommemorative T-shirt and an
extra-special chartered tour of Best Brains Studios! ($45 plus hotel,
which is $79 a night. The hotel's in-house channel will be showing never
before seen footage of MST3K.)
Frank's Package: Your basic convention package, without the hotel room,
T-shirt and tour. Admission to the ConventioCon including the Costume
Ball, and admission to the MST Alive Show on Saturday night. ($45)
Torgo's Package: This modest little ditty is really nothing more than a
ticket to the Live Show on Friday. ($20)
I think Pattie's got the right idea. If you're gonna drive all the way to
Minnesota and you can afford it, Forrester's sounds like the way to go.
