So we have this big ass state, was wondering if we could get a Texas meet up going?
sweetness well put the word out to any other texans on here that yall know and lets see what we can get set up
Didn't someone try and do this last year? Did it ever take? I'd love to meet up but doubt I will unless it's in Houston which I doubt it will be lol
well why cant it be in houston, as of right now we have 3 peeps that are in houston, one in corpus christi, and one in san antonio
I know alot of people there hummm i think this will work i will talk to some people that live there and see what i can do for yall.
I'm in Houston *coughs do it in Houston do it in Houston coughs*
ok so right now the vote is to have it in Houston, now for the folks that live there where should it be held, should we do like a big dinner as that would be the easiest.
Let me know when as I am in Iraq right now, but I am from San Antonio. Iget back in Oct 2009. Thanks
Hell I say we meet up at someones house bring beer and have a bbq lol
sounds good i guess i should get alot of beer LOL
Hey is you live in SA cool i live Seguin LOL its really really small
Git-R-Done..sorry had to do it lol
But yea we need to plan this if we're gonna do it need to a place and a date and all that
alright well we have a member that is in iraq and doesnt get back till OCT ill find out if he has a date but i would love to have him there as i have been wear he is and its hard but always nice if you have something to look forward to when coming home.
also gives us time to plan
I am game and isnt far from Houston..So Houston is cool for me
That's true Iron so let us know if you get in touch with him and what all he says :)
agrees with Marie..Let Us know, I am not that far away from her so
I am from Fort Worth, and I tried when I first got here, too damn many loose ends really. I think it is a great idea, maybe get a timeframe. After Oct. Then maybe around the first of the year, indoor / outdoor. Beer and BBQ? Whatever, I will be there!! Hell I will bring a friend!!
i actually live between houston and beaumont, altho if a smaller place isnt a prob, we can meet here.
i was going to suggest taking over a club...or at least a corner of it. lol
there is a club in houston called numbers. they have a night each month that they call "underworld".
we could always synch up for that, or conversly, just meet there on a friday night and meet upstairs.
there are a few other clubs in the area for those interested.
thoughts?
~Wolf~
I will be there, if anyone here wants to get together and discuss the timeframe, whatever. Message me, stalk, whatever. I am here alot!
mOOn
I like Numbers been there once...let someone know what's going on lol :)
Great, sounds like it is coming together. Great minds in Texas. Hahahaha.
No about where, I will have to take ya'lls word for it. I ahve only been to one place in Houston lately. Twin Peaks.
Let me know
mOOn
ok peeps all great ideas, now we have a guy that army dude up at the top that wants to come and wont be back till the end of oct begeining of Nov, he is going to get me a date so i would (as a vet myself) like to do it after he gets back.
wow...how many vets do we have hear? one of us was asking about my uniform just earlier tonight! LOL
im a vet of the army, and now in guard
~W~
Hi all,
I'm just outside of Houston in Baytown and I know that last year we were trying to get one set up and it all fell apart. I know a few members that are in Houston that I can contact that will probably work with us.
First you have to figure on a place and a date alone with alternates that way you will have people draw to it.
Liz
This all sounds great, but being so far I would like to look at the sites of the meeting. Maybe just let me know of places in Houston we can go. This is part of my beloved threads, so if anyone knows of the places, i would love to see them. Thanks Everybody
mOOn
this might help, but there are also other venues
http://www.numbersnightclub.com/
~W~
Kool, thanks. I ran search too. There are a few good places. Im game.
MooN
yea that is what i am working on right now, no i like the numbers idea but i would like for ever one to get to know a bit better before we hit up a club. some where we can talk and get to know another one. and i will get a date set as soon as the dude in iraq lets me know. since we are not looking till end of OCT or early NOV we have some time
I would probably spend most of the time sauced out of my mind.
I know I would be in and would like to know about Numbers
Cool, I will be there! I am from Fort Worth also! Friends with moon,
ROAD TRIP!!!!!
stalker
awe yeah, I am so there as well.
But about Numbers, I think it's really really small
and is way too packed. I think someone's place
is better an idea... to get acquainted, you know?
Then go to like Numbers, but in packs, you {we}
houstonians know that the parking there sucks.
That sounds like a good idea and parking sucks anywhere you go in Houston lol
sounds good to me and i hate Houston, well especially if i have to drive in it...lmao
so any other recommendations as to where it should be in or surrounding Houston? or does anyone have a place they would like to volunteer for a BBQ?
Houston's too far for me. I'm in East Texas (East Of Dallas) area here.
well we may have a few people coming from the fort worth area maybe a car pool can be set up?
I'm game. Maybe there is a more centralized location. Just really depends on how many and where I guess. We still have time to work out the details. There is quite a group here. So, my thoughts are wait for the dude in Iraq, after he has a set date for coming home, get a listing of all who is planning on coming, and locations, then map it.
~MooN~
central...how bout austin?
does anyone know of any good clubs that would cater to our kind there?
or...is there anyone in a more central locale (college station area also good) that would have that barbeque/party?
someone that can play the music loud and perhaps has some crash space for those of us that enjoy our absynthe?
~W~
Our kind? What people? lol yes most places cater to people lol and no sorry I know nothing about Austin
well here lets get a vote as to where ever one wants it
everyone msg me as to a where you would prefer it and ill tally up the votes and post them here.
after we get a place then ill start looking into where to have it
sound good people?
I'm right on the coast just south of Houston.
We tried a get together not long ago and it fell apart at the last minute, sadly.
I'll add this to my beloved's and see how things progress.
I know nothing of Austin, alil about Dallas, enough to get me to The Church on Sunday Nights..I know more about Houston and it is closer for Me as well
ok so fare we have two plus me for houston, so thats
houston 3
dallas 0
san antoino 0
austion 0
corpus christi 0
I am in Fort Worth, so I vote for the Dallas. Maybe after we can all get locatons, then we can get a map of the locations, and look for something in the middle?
Just a suggestion. I am always up for a road trip anyway. So, wherever I need to go, I am there.
As long as there is a Starbucks on the way, and a bar or Liquor store when I get there!!
I still say Houston..Shouldnt be that far from Dallas on Interstates...Maybe far as i have to go..Dallas is further away from me, no major interstates here for me yet
Well i can go to any of the places but i do know of some good places we can go in SA.
ok so here is how it stands
houston 3
dallas 2
san antoino 1
corpus 0
im easy regarding location, so im going to abstain from voting. dallas does have the church and if you havent been there, you are in for a treat.
the question for me becomes do we want to meet at someones home or at a club?
if its at someones home, it could be in a small town (or even better) out in the country. we could be loud, blast our music, and enjoy our drinks as well as each others company without the presence of outsiders.
just a thought
~W~
I havent went to The Church yet, knows how to get there..But it is closer for me in Houston
It is a goth like club on Sunday Nights..Really name is Lizard Lounge
it is called The Church one night a week for goths, vamps, etc..Geesh read about in database under clubs i think
alright so we have another one for houston
i belive that is 5 houston
2 dallas
0 austin
o corpus
Houston is closest anyways..even they can hit the interstate
are we wedded to going to a club then? has the private home been ruled out?
~W~
That would rule me out then cause I'm not goth and I'm not a ""vampire"" lol
IDK
amd I am just me so it really shouldnt matter how one labels them selves
I’m just north of Dallas but if there is a meet up in Houston then I will be there depending on the date
But as was said it’s a big state who said there cant be more than one meet up
Anybody in the DFW area hit me up and we can try for a DFW meet up on top of the Houston meet up
TLDG, I am with you. I am not goth and I outgrew clubbing a long time ago.
It doesnt matter if you gave up clubbing 40 yrs agao, it isnt like it is a every day thing and who cares rather u goth or not..geesh ppl..isnt that labeling one's self
Winterdarkmoon, I am sorry, but since when was it your responsibility to call out everyone on their reasons for not going?
I do not have to justify why I outgrew clubbing a long time ago or why I label myself as non-goth, but here ya go....
I am a 26 years old married mother of two.
LordWolf, I still like your idea of a Texas BBQ. But I see I am going to be outvoted on that as well.
Hey, I'm a vegetarian but, I like BBQ.
And fyi, I think the club scene kind of
defeats the purpose of even doing a
meet-up... it'll be hard to shyte chat,
you won't know all of whom came
for the "VR members" meet-up, which
mind you... I think it'll be cool to meet
you guys and gals.
And who says it can't be done in the
day light hours? Let's spend the day at
a park or something, hell I dunno, if
we can't find someone who's willing
to offer up their yard. {who knows, it
can be doable and for the travelers
it'll give them a semi decent hour to
drive back home, if need be.
Hey, it's just a though, big field, we can
BBQ, drink... public washroom/bathroom
or whatever you call it. {not the portables}
If any of yall would like to come to my house for a BBQ that would be cool. Just message me and let me know if any of yall want to come.
It isnt and I am too old for clib scene as well but damn to label everything everyone is or does...well.....And a cook out sounds better cause You can talk and visit...Geesh it is still a free country..And the name is Winter
I saw something about Texas, so I had to come over and see the thread. I was born in Dallas. WOOT. So, when the thread was titled,"Calling all Texas", I couldn't resist coming in to comment. My dad is still there, so I still have strong ties to Texas.
Oh, yeah, Go Texas.
I think it would be great if yall come to my house cause yall all live around me. LOL
Sounds good to me and then a club maybe afterwards....lol
As far as I am concerned, it really dont matter where. The idea is really for like minded people to get together and hang out. BBQ is good, whether vegetarian, I make a mean BBQ vegetable medley.
Club is kool too, cuz I am sure we would not be there to actually do the club thing.
But. . .
I would like to suggest a festival type thing. Maybe if any knows a band or two. Tents, bbq pits, all that. Maybe by the lake even?
We are all intellegent people/ vamps /goths / ....
There are endless opportunities, options available. Come on people, lets get it together! We are Texans!! We can do this!
Whose with me!!!???
Where i live we have a river we can tube at and have a big bbq.
I belive the best corse of action is to have a BBQ get together, and we can have alternate things for the veggie heads, and then who ever wants to go the the club after can, we have on person offering her place in san antoino and if we want it in houston we need ideas on were to have it so speak up people
She is in Seguin, wherever the hell that is..But sounds okay to me , even though I would have a nice drive ahead of me..
I think having it at someones house of finding a place like a park is a good idea cause not everyone is into the "club scene" some are to young to go and some just don't like clubs I for one don't really care for clubs cause their loud and you really can't talk without screaming lol and I say have it during the day time in the sun no one here will burst into flames or burn up we'll just sweat our asses off and get a tan lol
Okay... people that are going or might be thinking of going to BBQ please message me i wont bite you okay LOL . I need to know how many people are going and what yall like to eat and all that.
depending the date i will be there and i vote bbq cause i am to young to go to a club i will also let my dad know about this and my aunt if i go my dad will cause he want let me go that far with anyone else but him i live in fort worth but we can make it there or my dad can with out me
i will try to make it there but like my daughter just said in the post above me it depends the date on wether or not she can go if even i can go so message me when you set a date and the place
I live in OKC but I can travel down to DFW area it is only about a 4 or 5 hour ride and I have a very good friend there...'Have bike will travel'...let me know when and where...the BBQ idea sounds like fun...
mattpeters whew...just googled the route and did not realize that you are south of DFW...looks like about just over 7 hours to ya...still it would be an interesting run...so keep me in the loop...
DedLocke....let me know when you are passing through... :D
I will let yall know i am adding things up in my head and when it will go down. :) BUT PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF ANY OF YOU ARE REALLY THINKING ON COMEING.
You know I will VotreLouve...and yes I am serious about making it a nice road trip...
okay yall that is 5 people i have so far.When it will be is in the fall some time.
so kool, maybe all of us from DFW can caravan that way. I am in Fort Worth as well. That could work.
Sounds like somthing is coming together.
Anyone know of a program or website that multiple users can add infor, locations, routs and such?
ok, you can just count me out.
The only far traveling I'm down for, is Italy, Tx.
I have people there that my son and I visit every
Halloween. I can't make two far trips... not too
close in time.
Y'all have fun!
Yes... but will children be attending this as well?
*just wondering*
wouldn't be a bad idea though, for us parents, mine is 12
