Thanks, Leah. It seems like Spotlight is one that everybody knows of,
but it seems nobody (other than Tina) has been there. :)

Hmmmm ... I'm trying to think back and I don't remember the bar area
being that large, but I've only been there once and I didn't really
inspect the bar area.
Interesting trivia, a cow-orker was telling me that the Hamburger Marys
chain started in Hawaii. I didn't know that.

Sounds like we have two (possibly 3) good options for the Welcome
Celebration. Obvious advantage to HM's is that a move would not be
required and a segue from dinner to Welcome Celebration could be
almost seamless.
Spotlight would expose us to a new venue, giving us more exposure
to more places, more variety for our people, etc.

The way things are looking, it appears that both shops are interested

Hmmmm ... This is news to me. There's been no mention that I know of on
the Yahoo CGT group, even though I've been in and out of town and not as
current with it as I usually am, and lately there has been a lot of
non-CGT stuff there which I've skimmed and skipped.
Looking at the Yahoo group now, there is a note (not very conspicuous)
that CGT will be meeting at Hamburger Mary's this last week. Also a note
that it will resume at Flex after the one week hiatus.
There are some polls there, which nights are good and which nights are
bad, so it looks like they are again reconsidering dates and/or venue.
Hopefully Michelle will give us an update on the CGT situation.

I've talked to a few people who were signed up for the GB seminar thing
and their reasons for not showing were more or less the same, out late
Friday got up late, just wanted to take it easy, etc. Unfortunately this
did not go over well for GB, and because of this they probably will not
be doing anything similar without $$$ up front.
This is why I think HW might be a bit more receptive toward such a thing
for is at DLV 2003.

Sasha's is indeed a very nice place. I have a feeling that one is going
to be around for a while.
If I may digress, I just got a note that Rudy De La Mor will be appearing
at Sasha's shortly. If anybody's in the area, it's well worth it to see
his show. It's hilariously funny and very entertaining. Hint: Do NOT
read a newspaper while sitting in his audience. :)

Ok, consider the thread started. :)
The obvious thing, that I think of anyway, assuming the shakeout ends in
a good result, would be RHPS. However (comma) this is so iffy right now
that I don't want to even mark it on the slate with a big question mark.
However, listening to the feedback and comments from the past 2 years,
I think the crowd would go for something where they could socialize.
Feedback both in 2001 and 2002 noted a lack of "quality social time"
on Saturday.
We do have the happy hour (which 1/2 of our people will skip or be late
for either because they are getting ready or because time just got away
from them) and the dinner (which a good percentage will skip too) and
then the show.
In 2001 and 2002 the crowd scattered to the winds when the show du jour
ended. We did have a reasonably good showing for RHPS in 2001, but there
were many who ended their DLV day at the end of the show. In 2002 we had
planned to meet at Sasha's, but parking was so difficult that most never
made it and Sasha's was so zooey that most of those who did ended up
leaving.
With SOM starting at 10:30, that means it will let out around midnight.
The time and the discontinuity will indeed result in some fallout, with
those simply calling it a night, but I'm sure others will want to get
together.
It would be nice if we could keep the group together as much as
possible. This will also be the last evening for a number of our
people, those who will be leaving Sunday.
I think it would be ideal if we could find:
. One thing of general interest, as opposed to multiple things of
special interest. (Guess that leaves RHPS out, huh?)
. Something social in nature, or at least one where conversation is
possible.
. Something where transportation and/or parking is not a major issue.
. Something exciting enough for the party animals, but laid back enough
for those who want to relax.
Maybe a lounge with light entertainment would work. Comments?

A later note indicates that this is a "go" at HW. See correspondence
below.
Update on update: Looks like GB may also be interesting in hosting
something like this as well. Film at 11.
As for scheduling, yes, earlier in the week would allow those who attend
to practice what they learned for the rest of the period, but a later
weekday would get a better turnout and allow more to take advantage of
it.
I would suggest either Wednesday or Thursday, as I think Tuesday would
get you a suboptimal turnout.
If this is going to be held in conjunction with the open house, as was
the hairstyling thing last year, Tuesday would definitely not be good.

I think just a wee bit of coordination, finding out when the show gets
out, arranging for the limos to be there shortly after, would work fine.
This is far more critical at the show pick-up area than at the second
(bar) pick-up area if that is to happen.

It does appear that a "Vegas" type show is what the people want. I've
seen Splash, Jubilee, and Folies, but I would not mind seeing any of
them again. Showgirls might seem a bit too much like LaFemme, which our
people did not seem to like that much, although I think it will be less
artsy-fartsy than LaFemme. I do think that any of Splash/Jubilee/Folies
would work well. IIRC, all of them are similar in price, and all use
the same reserved seating system.

No, I think you're being realistic and thinking in real-world terms.
The combination of alcohol and horny het males on the make can be
unstable under the best of circumstaces. Add to this such factors as
some of them thinking one of our people is an available GG, some of them
thinking of our people as competition for available GG's, etc.
The singles clubs that have been talked about are places where those
said horny males go in search of het females to wake up with the next
morning. With rare exception they do not want t* people on their turf.
I think I've said enough on this topic ... :)

Well, uh, sounds great but ... I *was* supposed to be in Las Vegas in
December, but business plans changed and if this happens it will not be
until after the first of the year. :( Otherwise I would most defintely
be in on it. :(
I would suggest something maybe in January, but the schedule for me on
this is so event-driven that it's hard to make any firm plans. :( :(

Sorry if this response is long, but ... Some of this I've thought of
before and shared with some people, and some of this will be hasty
thoughts on the keyboard.
Looking into the crystal ball, it looks like there is a strong
possibility that within the next few years there will be an annual t*
convention in Las Vegas, which did indeed begin with what we now call
Diva Las Vegas, the vacation.
However, I don't see any reason for DLV, the vacation, to go away.
>That's one of the reasons that I try
>to suggest activities that a group of friends, and not necessarily a
>group of T's, could enjoy. 'twas that way in the beginning, and the
>fact that most of our activites involved recreational drinking, puking
>and lidocaine cream didn't bother me a bit. :)
That is what makes DLV unique and special, and also what many of the
others are beginning to appreciate.
When what would become DLV was first conceived (you remember, you
were on line when this was going on), it was never thought of as an
"opportunity to dress" or even a t* community event, it was a
get-together to enjoy Las Vegas and each other's company.
Back in the middle years of DLV (1999-2001), yes, I did sense a desire
by some to mold DLV into what people were used to ... the cookie-cutter
t* convention. Yes, I (and thankfully others) resisted that push and
eschewed such things as meeting rooms and paid registration. I think a
lot of that was due to the fact that the Fanfair clone was what people
were used to, comfortable with, and what they expected at a t*
gathering.
However, in 2002 I sensed a swinging of the pendulum in the opposite
direction, that people were more in tune with the vacation mold, and
enjoyed the difference between DLV and SCC/FF/FH/TT/etc.
I was expecting more of a push toward the convention, and I was
prepared to make a proposal to this effect to those who wanted to
see a convention happen:
If there are people who want to see a convention happen, then let it be
so. Let those who want to plan a convention spin off from this group and
do just that, plan a convention, with the blessing of all.
Those of us who choose not to spin off can then continue to hold the
annual vacation-not-a-convention that we know and love, again with the
blessing of all. There's enough intertia to keep the vacation going even
if we should lose more than half of the organizers and participants to a
convention.
I don't know if this will occur in the next couple years, or if it will
at all, but if there is the desire for more of a convention thing, it
can and will happen, and we don't have to give up DLV the vacation for
it to happen.
And for the record, I (annie) have zero interest in being part of the
planning and organizing of such a convention. Running a convention is
not what I wanna do on my vacation. Been there, done that, burned out
to the max.
I want to continue to focus my effort on planning something that I and
others can continue to enjoy, namely Diva Las Vegas, the vacation.

Yes, it is more customary and practical to serve Rubber Chicken to a
large crowd, ... but who wants to be customary and practical! :)
In all seriousness, yes, there will be a point at which our current
model will break. We may very well have some hard decisions to make in
the next few years. If I had things my way, I would most likely opt for
setting some limits on the number of people we register instead of
installing a new model.
I don't know if and when this will occur. Our numbers could grow without
apparent bound over the next 2-3 years, or we might see some significant
compression as we approach some yet undefinable saturation point.
We could come up with some creative solutions on how to deal with a
larger crowd, I'm sure, but there is a point where the demand for DLV
will exceed what our current model can supply.
With our vacation model, growth is not our primary goal. Yes, more
people means more can enjoy it, but the vacation model works just as
well (some would say more so) with a large handful as it does with a
small mob.
I have a feeling that if a convention is to spin off of DLV within the
next few years, quite a few, but certainly not all, will be drawn to
the convention as opposed to the vacation.

Our efforts have indeed accomplished something. We've planned a vacation
that we will remember for a lifetime. With the increased numbers each
year and the overwhelmlingly positive feedback, it's obvious that we're
doing something right.
In a way, it would be nice to be recognized for doing this, as I believe
DLV has been a valuable asset to the t* community, but I don't want to
see publicity distract from what we are doing, that being planning and
enjoying a vacation.
. . . . .
It's not my intention to start a thread here, but if anybody has any
comments or wants to add anything to this topic, please feel free to
do so.
One request I will make, and that if there is any serious interest
toward spinning off a convention-planning group from this group here,
that it not distract from the planning of DLV 2003, and that we complete
the cycle of DLV 2003 as our priority.

+This is Aiko, one of the DLV girls. Our "vacation,

+22, 2003. I've been in communication with Annie,

+art of walking, sitting, and standing with more
+grace and femininity. Another subject could be
+"dressing down for the occassion". The time would

+an hour or so. Also, would you be willing to do

+sure we will be patronizing your store, and this

+I thank you for your consideration in this venue,

+She would just like us to mention it as a 'extra' to her Open House so
+it looks like she is offerring something special. She is also open to
+whatever we would like to do so if you have any ideas and decide to go
+with HW she is happy to hear them.
