Stupid stuff about music and conventions

[buttonlass]

I am mad. People are pissing me off. Stop implying that our party was an SEMP. Really. That era has past. Most of the people playing at the party weren't around for most of those. Or alternately were shunned when they were happening because others didn't think them good enough or like their music. There are a couple of people still active from that

I had a great time. FWIW.

SEMP

Hi,
I just opened an LJ acct and found this post thru the baggiecon list. I think there are some people still pissed about the SEMP's and the last one was probably a decade ago. We just let it roll off, figuring that since we're from Chgo, we didn't need to be Minnesota nice. Yeah, go to the expense of renting space, providing refreshments, gathering great music and then listen to people bitch. I found your party to be the highlight of Minicon for me. If anyone is uptight about it, let them organize their own get together.

Well hello there! I friended you so you can see the rest of everything. Most of my posts are friends locked, much like many of our acquaintances.

haha. I totally thought this was about the ACS party. I was all, "I missed the drama!" hahahaha.

Oh goodness no. I lock all my posts mostly so this was the last public.

I have the unfortunate habit of attending (and previously running) science fiction conventions. There is very little as uppity as a science fiction fan scorned or even slightly snubbed.:)
