Updates on pre-cruise shinanigans

[kungfugimp.livejournal.com]

Just wanted to update on what's going on w/ the precruise dinner and scthuff:

The pirate bar - is holding their monthly dress up night on Saturday Sept 26th. This would mean that for Sunday, you're not going to get the biggest visual dress up bang for the buck. Just want to throw this out there for folks so they're aware.

Friday, Sept, 25th, there is a $10 wine tasting at one of my fav places, Cellars:

I've saved points of interest on this map for people to peruse. Cellars is a great wine shop that us local yocals often frequent and I highly recommend.

In going over some details with the pirate bar, there's no easy way to set up transportation (without it coming out of my pocket initially). Where as the Mai Kai has a company they work with. In the case of the pirate bar, I can set a time for dinner (like 7pm) and folks can arrange to meet at said place. I figure on putting out the what's going on where w/ these locations so folks will get an idea of what to expect.

From a head count, it looks like we have about 20 people total interested in the pre-cruise dinner. If folks are staying close to the port, I would imagine it should be easy to either a) arrange with the hotel for transport for dinner (or whereabouts) or b) cab it.

So...Wanna Know Who's Spinning?

Ladies and Gentlemen, I am pleased to announce your DJs for GothCruise 6!

Tuesday, September 29 - Spotlight Lounge:

3:00 p.m. - 4:00 p.m.
DJ NICOCHAN
Hailing from steamy South Florida, also known as the land of apathy, Nicochan obtained her nickname while living in Japan while on one of her many travels. A lover of crafting, sculpting small objects, construction of various modes of dress, along with a keen interest in things macabre and tropical, Nicochan hopes to bring a sense of light and dark to the night's festivities.

This will be her 5th cruise and second time at giving cruisers a chance to jump and jive.

4:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m.
WINTERSMOURN
When not engaging in aural hijinks Wintersmourn ventures out in the big blue room, and with the daystar bright and heavy in the sky, he plies his trade in the film biz of the Ft. Lauderdale-Miami area. As a Tiki/Retro devotee he is enamored with mixology, wood carving, exotica and swanky lounge fun. But for those dark times, there grows a longing to gather with others whose hearts are heavy and whose nocturnal wardrobe is fabulousness incarnate. This is Wintermourn's fifth cruise and the second time he's been allowed the honor of providing your nice boots a groove to move to.

5:00 p.m. - 6:00 p.m.
THEONEBOB
True Fact: TheOneBob is actually Bob's AOL screen name from 1994. Bob started DJing on his long-running FM radio show, "The Shape of Things to Come" from 1985 though 2006 (that's 20 years) in the New York City area on 89.1 WFDU. His club credentials extend back to the best goth club ever, the Pipeline in Newark, NJ where he dragged 500 lbs of vinyl in every week, he also DJ'd at Limelight, Alchemy, Albion/Batcave, various GothCruises and was a regular at Contempt in NYC. He gave up club DJing when he moved to Florida, where they had no use for him.

DIGITAL ENIGMA
Digital Enigma is brought from the pixelated world of Second Life into the real world! Having gotten vampires in Transylavnia to dance to Echo Image's remake of the Never Ending Story theme and mainstream spa goes at Phoenix Spa to sing along to Voltaire, she's getting all gussied up to play your requests and maybe introduce you to some new music(or old music, we run the gambit in this vast expanse we call brain). Just keep her away from the booze folks, or the jpop will creep in.
