Initial P (Disko Warp/Anime Love Hardcore, PDX/SEA)

DJ Hojo (JKPOP!, SEA)
Allen’s foray into J-pop/K-pop DJing was inevitable. As a child he spent many a summer in Taiwan, watching Chinese-dubbed broadcast anime and singing along with the infectious opening and ending songs. Allen also moonlights as a writer for SSGMusic, as well as a karaoke DJ at Bush Garden, one of the most storied and revered places for karaoke in all of Seattle. His love for everything Yasutaka Nakata’s done, and pop culture in general, is well documented. He’s pleased as punch that the worlds of mainstream music and Asian pop are colliding, and wishes to only further the cause and foster an environment where people can continue to fall in love with Asian pop music.

20 minutes...? Well, I suppose... depending on your walking speed. I can usually do it in 10, but maybe it's because I've walked around downtown Vancouver so many times... or I'm just fast... Oh, plus people tend to walk slower while in groups, too.
Also, as a possible option is to take a bus. There's quite a few that would work well, but I'd recommend one of these: 4 Fourth Plain, 37 Highway 99, or 32 Evergreen/Andresen. The bus stop is about 3 or 4 blocks from the hotel. Whichever one you take, get off at Boradway & 19th, then walk a block West and turn North. (This will be the last day that a bus ride will be $1.60; starting on that Saturday, it will go up to $1.65).

Great! This is my third time hosting a pre-party, we've had a blast at the previous two, I expect this to be just as fun. Nice way to get everyone together in one spot and meet up with friends before the craziness of the con, and shake it to some good music
