Title: Dance Dance Kumoricon - Saturday, July 18th
Post by: Jamiche on June 02, 2009, 08:16:34 pm
(Thanks to Black~Rose for naming the event :))

Our next mini-event for 2009 will be video game music inspired dance Saturday, July 18th at the Norse Hall in Portland.  The info page and link to the online registration will be posted by this weekend (or as soon as I can kick him into getting it ready ;D).  Like the last one, there is not a strict dress code, and cosplay is encouraged, as always.

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.  Due to issues at the last dance, we will be very firm on this.  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.

We hope to see you there :)

The only way I'll probably go is if Charles prods me enough to come :P

hm. I have a question concerning ID. I have a school ID from last year, and it's marked last year clearly, stating I was 13 in 2008. Can I bring this or should I just go get a Washington state ID?

Lotsa drama last time but I'm always up for going again 8D
I'll have to find one of my sexy video game characters to go as XD

Is there a dress code for this? I haven't seen any information >_>
Title: Re: Dance Dance Kumoricon - Saturday, July 18th
Post by: Deviant Spider on June 07, 2009, 12:20:34 pm
Regarding the School ID from last year: Let me talk to Jaki. Im sure it will be fine as it was last year but ill check to be sure

Regarding Dress Code: Same thing as the last dance. Cosplay prefered or casual dress. No ripped up jeans and tanktops etc. Just wear something fun and nice.
Title: Re: Dance Dance Kumoricon - Saturday, July 18th
Post by: nikkiolie on June 07, 2009, 03:31:00 pm
What about a costume like Kuja? That is a quite exposed costume but it is a video game character. Kuja is the third person in my signature.

Title: Re: Dance Dance Kumoricon - Saturday, July 18th
Post by: nikkiolie on June 12, 2009, 02:23:17 pm
I would go for Aeris....it would bee cooler, but Demyx would be cool too...I just imagine you would be very hot >_>
Title: Re: Dance Dance Kumoricon - Saturday, July 18th
Post by: AriaxKitsune on June 12, 2009, 07:03:07 pm
Good point on the Demyx...Maybe if I get the wig I can do a more casual Demyx.  I figure that Aeris will be my fall back...as usual lol.

I don't know if I want to wear Kuja to this or save it for the con. I may end up saving it.

So, I am pretty sure I will be attending this as Victreebel. And if I can't get it done in time I may just fix up my Bridget costume and wear it instead. Either way, I'm going to be going and I hope to find people to chillax with there.

Unfortunately, I don't think it's feasible for me to build a Robo 2000 costume in time for this. :[

So I'll probably just wear my suit. :P

Hm. I'm not sure I want to cosplay to this. Most of my wigs aren't all that comfortable, so maybe I'll just go as me for once. XD More comfortable that way.
Title: Re: Dance Dance Kumoricon - Saturday, July 18th
Post by: nikkiolie on July 01, 2009, 03:38:37 pm
I don't know what I am going to wear to this either. I believe I have already asked for this day off.....but I can't be too sure.

It's coming up though 17 days away :3

I still haven't decided if I want to go as Kuja or as Larxene....maybe Cloud. All of them are from a video game :P
Title: Re: Dance Dance Kumoricon - Saturday, July 18th
Post by: Syd-chan on July 01, 2009, 04:55:21 pm
Larxene would be pretty recognizable, plus you pull off her hair amazingly.

I am interested to see Kuja though...did you finish the wig yet?

The dance is a little more than a week away, but there is still time to pre-register (you have until July 14th).  Just a reminder, everyone who pre-registers will be entered in a drawing for door prizes.

For those who haven't seen the announcement on the website, the dance will feature tracks from the Slants upcoming album Slants! Slants! Revolution.

Hope to see you there :)

Where are you looking at? It looks like the address is correct on the calendar (http://www.kumoricon.org/?page_id=26&kcmonth=7&kcyear=2009&kcday=18) and on the main event page (http://www.kumoricon.org/?page_id=230). In the Google Maps link, you can even go to street view and see the "Norse Hall" sign above the building doors.

Yeah i know but the place that the swing dance was held at in Milwaulkie was called Norse hall as well.
I looked at it and was confused cause I did go on google maps and looked at the street view.

The one in Milwaukie is called Milwaukie Community Club (or Milwaukie Community Club Center, or Milwaukie Community Center):

Winter Ball main page (http://www.kumoricon.org/?page_id=186)

Winter Ball calendar entry (http://www.kumoricon.org/?page_id=26&kcmonth=2&kcyear=2009&kcday=7) (with Google Maps link)

http://www.milwaukiecommunityclub.org/

Go to the street view, and although the sign is blurred in street view, you can see it matches the legible sign in the photo on the official site. :)

If we cosplay, do we still have to wear "casual dress," even if our costume contains otherwise? My cosplay has a striped t-shirt, and a collared outer-shirt.

Also, could someone explain the term "casual dress" to me? English phrases tend to escape my vocabulary. I've asked people, but they just said, "casual, but nice."
Title: Re: Dance Dance Kumoricon - Saturday, July 18th
Post by: Jamiche on July 15, 2009, 07:20:03 pm
Casual dress means you don't have to wear fancy or formal, just nice, normal clothes.  We aer just asking for people to dress a little nicer than ripped jeans and flip flops.  Your T-shirt will be fine, as it is part of your cosplay. :)
Title: Re: Dance Dance Kumoricon - Saturday, July 18th

Words cannot express how excited I am for this. 83 Got my Shadow boots all fixed up and ready to go!

I have a friend who's going that doesn't have a costume. Would it be better for her to wear just a black shirt and pants, or a red dress? I saw quite a few people in formal attire at the winter ball, but am unsure what to tell her.
Title: Re: Dance Dance Kumoricon - Saturday, July 18th
Post by: Jamiche on July 16, 2009, 09:18:39 pm
There is usually a range in what people wear.. some will be more casual, while some go more formal.  It's best to wear what is the most comfortable :)

Heya all,

We are all heading out to the site to get things set up.  So, if anyone has any last minute questions please send them to the ddk email address on the information page.  Those emails will go to my phone and I will be checking at least every hour.  But, from here on out, none of us organizers will be on the forums.  

I hope to see you all there!  I am so excited for this :)

(Also, Norse Hall has AC and my place doesn't ... I am going to be getting myself over there ASAP.)

Been back for a bit, rather exhausted now, but it was soo worth it in the end. <3 I had a great time seeing a bunch of old friends and all(and thanks Roy, for willing to dance with me until my friend dragged me off to go home X3). Can't wait for some other fun event or Kumori itself~ If only there were more dances, though. Only two a year is kinda sad. Doesn't feel like enough but so much at the same time.
Anywho~! Can't wait to see people again really soon! Later~! ^^

I actually brought a CD that had anime/game music perfect for the dance, but I couldn't ask the DJ over the loudness of the music and didn't know if I could come up on stage. Either way there were some good tunes thrown down, like the random Imperial March! Next time this theme happens I'm bringing a retro console and a TV.

My nobody has nothing compared to me! Though, I do feel really bad. But I had TONS of fun. Really, I do hope to see some of you guys back at the con!

I missed Zoot Suit Riot myself.  I could have sworn I brought it to the dance but I grabbed big bad voodoo daddies rather than the cherry poppin' daddies.  Too many Swing Daddies in my collection.  Next time gadget, next time...

Thanks for everyone who came out to the dance.  I had a great time spinning music.

I had fun!! 83 I loved the Macarena and the YMCA. That was epic. I had so much fun seeing everyone again! I'm so glad I got to talk with you Nikki! Your Kuja wig owns hardcore. And it's always fun hanging with you Arumi. X3

However I think the dance would have been more successful had it not been themed. I feel like the music was lacking compared to the first dance because video game music being incorporated. Which isn't exactly ideal to dance to.

I had a great time at the dance, don't get me wrong, but it just wasn't as good as the first one IMO.
Title: Re: Dance Dance Kumoricon - Saturday, July 18th
Post by: nikkiolie on July 22, 2009, 02:17:03 pm
I actually didn't hear hardly any video game music, I would say roughly a fourth of it was actually video game music, I was quite disappointed in that, but I do agree the music for the last dance was much better.
Title: Re: Dance Dance Kumoricon - Saturday, July 18th
Post by: DancingTofu on July 22, 2009, 09:36:49 pm
The theme did kind of fall flat, unfortunately.  Lack of Cave Story aside, the props got me HYPED, and the music didn't hold up to that expectation.  Dances really shouldn't try to have arbitrary themes when those themes are not the primary passions of those running them and attending them.  A gaming themed dance at a Gaming con?  Yes.  Anime themed dance at an Anime con?  Yes.  TBH, just a straight-forward techno/disco dance party would have been a lot smoother, simply because there wouldn't have been the struggle to make things match the theme.

Not POSITIVE as I don't fully know the character, but I believe that the Axel you are speaking of is Yatta Cloud (a.k.a Zach Marsh) of the Anime Hunters. I was surprised when I saw him there, I said that to him early on in the dance "It's only a 3 hour drive." Sweet. I drove 1 1/2 hours, but damn. Comitted. Nice. ANYWAY.

*grins wide* Ask, and you shall receive.   Well, eventually.
I was the Kenshin at the dance, wasn't on the floor constantly, but pretty hard to miss me.

I had my video camera recording just about constantly so from the time that I arrived (about 7:30~8:00PM..I forget) my camera was recording most everything. ^_^ I did several very fun things with the various songs which I hope to soon get onto YouTube (finally getting SOMETHING on there. ^^; *ahem*. Anyway, for the YMCA it didn't take long until most everyone was in a big circle dancing. Grinning, I took my chance and got my camera which was on it's tripod and went right in the middle of everybody and carefully started turning the camera......        Yeah. Some of my best work...though when you work with such great material, it's not hard. ~_^

You probably met my friend then, she was in a vampire knight cosplay too. :D
Her name was Savanah and she was one of the girls who won best pair that night, she was the one that claimed both of them because the other girl had already left.

We were there as a small group
