The US scene
« on: August 28, 2003, 11:36:17 PM »
Any US people here active on the scene? I just discovered the homepage of Pilgrimage (http://pilgrimage.scene.org) which states that the party lasted less than 24 hours! Watching some pictures from the event (here...) it seems like few of the visitors brought hardware with them.

Is this common practice on US demo parties or was it just because it was so heavily sponsored (no entrance fee - which is both good and bad IMHO) and the sponsors couldn't stay awake? :-)

@doommaster
Excellent - feel free to give a comparison between the US and European scene, it would be very interesting!

That looked pretty retarded for a "scene" party..


That's why I posted this thread in the first place :-)

one day I hope to make it across for a "real"
scene event...or at least something I think
would be more my taste. Beer instead of bottled
"spritzer" water, hot Scandinavian women/etc


You're welcome. Although you'll have to find the women yourself :-)
