...Last year everyone ran off to get bombed, and only CE and I were left drinking coffee. Are there any nondrinkers going :-?
;-) I may attend again, if I can afford the trip.  I need to talk to Mr. Hardware about the manual for the TBC he sold me.  He hasn't been responding to e-mails.

Amiwest is annual event (since 1998) in the capital city of California....Sacramento.


Ahhh.. that's where it is.  I was thinking maybe St Louis, but that must be another show (Ami-midwest?).

Anyway, anyone else from the UK (or even Europe) fancy going?  We can show those sissy Americans how to drink  :-D

Well..what can i tell you guys..im writing this absolutely drunk (not that im an alcoholic, but my sister is going to live to France again in a couple of hours...so ..anything is a good excuse for a good beer!)...but personally..i havent ever been in an Amiga show..
I only had the chance of meeting 3 Amiga users here in my country after a failed "Amiga party"...
So , one of the few things i must do before i pass away..is going to an Amiga show!! damn it!!! Who will be the charity soul who will help me?????All i do is reading and reading..first on mags such as Amiga Format or Amiga Active..now on forums like this...
I WANNA BE IN SOME AMIGA SHOWWWWWW

I may go, depending on the situation at the time.

@takemehomegrandma

That was indeed great the live broadcasting. AmiWest has always great live coverage. I hope it is the same this year. And I sure will stay home to follow it. At least for the non-comers it is a great welcome to have this. :-)

Check it out - I found the ass-end!

Amiga shows are always fun.  I hope to be able to go again this year.  I've only missed one AmiWest since they've started, and I certainly don't want to miss any more!

Regards,
Targhan

st. louis show was called the Gateway Amiga Show, or something like that...not because of Gateway's ownership...but because of the Gateway Arch in St.Louis

I thought about going to that one, because I live relatively close...but a-las...I've never been to single show, other than a 'pc' show.

I did go over to the St. Louis Amiga Gateway Show in 2001!  First show ever for me and enjoyed it!  Not to mention, I did go on a shopping spree by accident.  Hehe!

BTW, that "AmiEast" show someone is referring to...would that be any any chance that AmigaExpo 2002 we had two years ago in Maryland, USA?

Psst....how 'bout a show in Chicago, IL?   :-D

I don't drink.  I was however working into the wee hours during the show, Saturday night at the banquet being the exception.  Lee, Tigger, and my wife were all plastered though so at least someone had fun.

And in another part of the hotel, we had Genesi's Neko and Hyperion's Ben Hermans drinking :-P  I believe Neko has the event immortalized on www.amidrunks.com!

Another revelation: all those Am I [Hot|whatever] Or Not sites are actually about amigans. Ami-hot. Or not.

Yo Smithy,

You don't want this. You don't have a chance. If I start, I won't stop.
Your done. I bet I'm older than you and a wee bit more practice, Bo ha ha ha.
In fun.

Chris
