Twin Peaks In the parking lot of the Westin.

You may want to avoid all the hot topic (new game announcements), and bring your pitchfork seminars.
Booth babes, and white-Russians at 11 pm is a good time to woo future customers.
I vote for Friday at noon. By Saturday night people are already bailing, Saturday at 1 is right between Spooky and Multimorphic talks. Don't conflict with presentations from members of the community. Mike only shows up here to push tshirt contests or Expo, doing something during his talk on Friday doesn't conflict with Pinside stuff.
I have voted for noon lunch Friday
link to seminar schedule http://www.pinballexpo.net/seminar.pdf
Times I will be busy:
Thursday 4:00 p.m. Dutch Pinball Update
Thursday 8:00 p.m. Jersey Jack, Pat Lawlor
Friday 9:00 a.m. American Pinball, Magic Girl
Friday 4:00 pm. Heighway Pinball, Alien Pinball launch
Friday 7:00 - Stern's 30th year Anniversary Party
Saturday 12:00 noon, "Spookey Pinball,
Saturday 2:00 signing session
I would say Thursday following JJP talk.
Meet at the seminar room at 9:30.
Seminar Schedule still shows 9:30 as empty at the conference room and good idea to do the meet and great where everybody will likely already be, plus on the real kickoff night.
Quoted from Gexchange:The reason I avoided Thursday is I'm sure there will be people who will not have made it out yet. Will do Twin Peaks again, it seams to work well and its very close.. Unless someone else knows of a better place
FYI Thursday night at Twin Peaks is the Alien reveal party. Be plenty of Pinsiders there I'm sure, if last year's Full Throttle party is any indication.
Quoted from Aurich:FYI Thursday night at Twin Peaks is the Alien reveal party.
is it invite only? if so, how do I get a call?
I have no details or I'd share them, but no, not invite only, everyone is welcome. I think the JJP talk that night is at 8 right? So maybe 9? Last year we kept it going a couple hours I think, so even if there's a conflict with a talk you should still be able to make it.

Thank you, JJ for the get together!
Quoted from RickAHG:Thank you, JJ for the get together!
Ditto....great to put a few more names to faces....THANK YOU!!!....mark
Thanks for the drink, JJ. Although we've talked on the phone before, it was good to finally meet you.
Quoted from joelreeves:I met Labnip and Gary Stern scarfed half my nachos! "Epic" time. Thanks JJ!
i wanted to eat the other half
Really enjoyed the meetup. Met so many different people and overall my first trip to Expo was a great one with just the right mix of fun, drama, and some general weirdness.
Oh, and whiskey. Lots of whiskey.
Thanks JJ! Meeting some of the pinsiders (fellow pin geeks) was pretty cool. I don't get to talk to people in-person with this common interest too often and this was a great format for it. Thanks for the drink too! I was impressed that Stern even made a special appearance.
Thanks for the get together and the glass of bourbon. It was nice to meet you and the old man. Cheers, JJ!
Quoted from krivoap:I had to head to the airport for my niece's wedding.
Interesting. Not many brides have their wedding ceremonies performed at an airport.
Quoted from Gexchange:Thanks to all who came out! its was a great time. Was nice to see Gary stop by too! See you all next year
JJ
Agreed!!!...late to post, JJ , but thank you for your hospitality....Twin Peaks, Buffalo Trace, were highlights of the weekend!!!...it was fun to hear Gary's debate - Vodka vs. Bourbon....good times for my first show!!!....mark
