I'm coming and I'll be bearing poi and sticks and firetwirley goodness for all! Woohoo. I can't wait. The tix are $95 if you get them before Jan 12 and $115 after. How good is that?! that includes 3 days of camping and workshops during the fest. Yay! Oh, I got really cheap flights with Virgin ($55 each way) from Melb to Launceston so that's prolly cheaper than driving, innit? biggrin
I'm a bit sad about missing Beastie Boys and Timo Maas at Good Vibrations but... Circus! 3 days of! Oh the fun...

Hmm.. anyone like to guess when the tickets are likely to get sold out? I'd like to go but until I get some money I don't think I can afford it..


How're other people getting there? I heard something about a bus, but do any lovely people have any car space..? smile
I'm lurking in Launceston at the moment so I'd hopefully still be around..

If that's okay with you?

well tickets to the training sold out ages ago, but i'm fairly sure tickets to the public exhibitions will be sold on the gate like last time unless theres a huge rush (which i doubt)

the bus is for people going to the training( which i'm going to) but i'm not sure what they're doing for the public. ever tried hitchhiking? shrug

I bought my training tickets last year hahaha...... Ah the funs of having money at hand, now it appears to be completley void, but it works when it's there.

Either way, I will most deffinately be there so Blueberry, i would absolutely love to have a HoP meet up. I see your from Canberra, when are you getting down to Launceston?

The other thing I have to ask is that I will be arriving at Launceston airport on the 1st and the campsite doesn't take people untill the 2nd. Is there anyone here that could offer a bed for the night? I will thank you imensly and buy you a flower if anyone can.

Many Smiles,
David

sorry mate, i dont think there are any HoPpers that live in Luannie, but i might be wrong!


i decree that all HoPpers should take a plain black t-shirt they're willing to have gaffatape stuck on with their screennames tongue

Have a wonderful time. Sydney Juggling Convention was great, and there were a few people talking about heading on down to Tassie.

It was a day for screaming at inanimate objects.

What this calls for is a special mix of psychology and extreme violence...

biggrin Yep, that was indeed me!!! And I would have won it too, if they hadn't have made me swap for the two diablos (one I could have managed wink ).



And you? I must admit, I probably met you but I haven't made the HoP connection. How would I recognise you?



Edit: Were you our yoyo representative? Or am I mistaken?
