Re: Moonies Meeting Moonies

Thanks for posting the picture! I had a great time visiting with you! You picked a great place!

I have now started my "meeting Moonies" list

Teermin8r



I hope it can grow!!

Ted

Re: Moonies Meeting Moonies
 

GREAT PIC you two!!


(tee I just realized it's March. Is your seminar thingie still happening?)

Re: Moonies Meeting Moonies
 

Supposedly, but I haven't been told when yet. These seminars last thru April I'm told now. So here's hoping my seminars not in Dallas.

Re: Moonies Meeting Moonies
 

I second that...that's a great picture.

Did you pull on that beard to se if it's real?:dogpile:

Remember, you've met more Moonies than you think...

Re: Moonies Meeting Moonies
 

i'll make it unanimous! that's a really great picture ted, tee8!

Re: Moonies Meeting Moonies
 

Thanks Poda, Mossy, & Rick,

Tee and I had a great time talking for about 3 hours.... It is great getting to know one another better... and to realize that we all are more alike than not!

I hope all you Moonies get a chance to meet and greet whenever the opportunity presents itself.

But always remember to PROG ON!!

Ted

Re: Moonies Meeting Moonies
 

P.S. Yes the beard is real - but spring is coming, and the beard will probably be going... It gets WAY TOO hot in central Texas for a beard - especially one that long!!

Re: Moonies Meeting Moonies
 

I think your camera's color temp and white balance are way off... the beard is white. ;)

Re: Moonies Meeting Moonies
 

Heres my current list of glad to have met moonies:

Keithie W at Chippenham prog fest
Rogor Mortis at Chippenham
teerminator in Vegas
Steady Stan in Vegas
Artemis in Vegas
progdirjim at gig in CA
thor in Vegas

No piccies, just a list.

Re: Moonies Meeting Moonies
 

Not me! :(

Re: Moonies Meeting Moonies
 

I'm waiting for an official declaration of what constitues a Moonie. Seems to me that anyone who has ever posted, chatted, or listened is a Moonie.

So that means you can add at least 100 more vax.....including scores of musicians...and many of us can too.

Hope to meet a lot of the Southern contingent at Progday. There's a lot of us down there.....

I think my Poda pictures are either in a file on the computer or trapped in a camera, that I need to develop the cheap film, but have been waiting on the opportunity to take a picture of the stop sign the cop says I supposedly didn't stop for. (8-D

Re: Moonies Meeting Moonies
 

Well, you can stretch the definition all you want. To me, it is a person drawn to Aural Moon because he/she is looking for great music; then, sticks around and becomes a part of the daily community.

If you want to include the musicians we play here, sit back and be prepared to scroll through a long long long list of names; however, I don't believe they constitute "moonie" in the true spirit of our community.

That's doesn't matter to me; I still haven't met dear Mossy. :(

Re: Moonies Meeting Moonies
 

No, no...agreed there...I mean the musicians who have registered in as listeners. Some of many include Dennis from Iluvatar, Rik and Steve from Little Atlas, etc., and of course John Goodsall, a one-time frequent contributor. Every once in a while they drop by and listen.

Also, there are many who do not contribute daily, or no longer contibute and just listen. J Nighting, Roger (VT), Dinosaur are infrequent yet "charter" Moonies. Stan no longer shouts...Maui Bass Player just re-apperared.

Yorksvc no longer shouts, but he hasn't lost his "Moonie" card yet...

And finally, there are those who have registered and sometimes listen but never shout. Steve Storey, a friend from Progday, is one such person (aka Dangerboy).

Pining for Mossy :)

I guess what I'm saying is that I like the thread (the pic you have of Museman for instance is priceless) but the lists are getting kind of nebulous.

Re: Moonies Meeting Moonies
 

Do we have to define what constitutes a Moonie? I think it's worked so far and we all know what we mean don't we? The purpose of the thread is to make lists and attach piccies to go along with the lists. I can list whoever would like to be listed, no prob at all. :LOL:

Vax, we almost met at the airport that time but that was an ill fated trip on many fronts and nothing went right. Since I never go anywhere these days, I'm hoping there will a gig in Vegas which you absolutely HAVE to go to (because I know you wouldn't set foot otherwise).

I haven't met you either Rick, which we have to fix cuz I 'd like to add you to my list. :D

Re: Moonies Meeting Moonies
 

I'll second that!

IF we were able to swing Baja Prog this year, I was planning on jetting to Las Vagas. More of a drive to Mexicali but I'd getto meet you and see more of the southwest.

FWIW, I was in Las Vagas in '92 (?) for a DECUS convention. I gambled and lost EVERYTHING... all 25¢ in a single slot machine.

Re: Moonies Meeting Moonies
 

Look in the mirror.

Re: Moonies Meeting Moonies
 

Trust me....I'm not. And you're right.....

There's a Star Trek Experience in Las Vegas? That's weird! (8-D

Re: Moonies Meeting Moonies
 

> Roger (VT

I'm here! just haven't met anybody....

Re: Moonies Meeting Moonies
 

Hey Roger, just hop in the car and drive down to ROSfest in Pennsylvania the last weekend in April and you will meet several moonies :D

Re: Moonies Meeting Moonies
 

well, I'll check my calendar!

Starcastle would be great to see, but I'm bummed that Frost* has disbanded and won't be there...

Re: Moonies Meeting Moonies
 

I have met Davin at NEARfest... :) <and yes, I am going again this year!>

Re: Moonies Meeting Moonies
 

Nadina and vax...I'm looking forward. Hope you can make it. :grinz:

Re: Moonies Meeting Moonies
 

I have some nice pics of Davin and Karen there..I'll send them to you sometime.

Hope to see you there...

Re: Moonies Meeting Moonies
 

Great! We've got to meet up! Some of the usual moonies will be there; some of the unusual too! :-o~

Re: Moonies Meeting Moonies
 

I will be there! Got my patron tix for 2nd row this time! :imp:

Re: Moonies Meeting Moonies
 

Well, I never associate with plebeian audience members sitting behind me! :hmph:
I have Front Row Center patron tix this year! :neener: AA14/15/16 IIRC.

Re: Moonies Meeting Moonies
 

Didn't go for those seats this year...lineup not as much to my liking..so I'll be front row of balcony...after this w/e...so wash your hair, I'll be looking at the top of it!

Re: Moonies Meeting Moonies
 

Pah!!!!!!!!

It's going to be TERRIBLE anyway because I won't be there.:rulez:

I know.......that's complete and utter :horsepoop If my doctor had told me the truth about ops I'd actually be there with you all.

Re: Moonies Meeting Moonies
 

OMG! Doctors not telling the truth! Sheesh, what's next? Lawyers not telling the truth?

Re: Moonies Meeting Moonies
 

But HAWKWIND will be there! ])

Plus: Fusion Friday will ROCK majorly!!!!!!!!!!!! :rawk:

Re: Moonies Meeting Moonies
 

:hand:

Re: Moonies Meeting Moonies
 

Tell me about it.

I'm wondering, to this day, that if I hadn't had that fusion, that my doctor said I'd require within six months, if I'd still be on this pain medication (that I'll be on for the rest of my life).

I mean I don't MIND being stoned my entire life, but I'd rather it be by MY choice, thank you very much.

Re: Moonies Meeting Moonies
 

Find yourself a couple of more of those "doctors" and you too could share the limelight with Anna Nicole Smith; albeit, I doubt you could fill out a 38DD as nicely. On second thought, steer clear of the doctors, I'd like to see you hang around here a while longer -- 38DDs or not.

Re: Moonies Meeting Moonies
 

All things considered, I'd rather not, especially considering her current biological state, 38DDs or no.

Besides, I may be able to fill out some 38DDs, given sufficient tissue paper, but I do NOT have the legs for an attack mini. Trust me on this.

Thanks. I'm kinda fond of my ever-so-busted-up meatsack, and I can live without 38DDs, regardless of whether or not they're attached to me.

Steady Stan
 

Spent some quality time with erstwhile and future Moonie Steady Stan and Artemis (Diana) pretty much every waking moment from noonish Thursday to 3PM Friday. As soon as I figure out which cheapo cameras have what pictures, I'll post some of Stan resplendent in his wife-beater (a term he wasn't familiar with) and Diana, who changed from business attire to casual clothes faster than Clark Kent!

Stan gave me a tour of his work

http://www.tervis.com/

then proceeded to show me how far I need to go to become a really decent disc golfer. The man owns hundreds of discs and there is a story on each one! If I wasn't so enamored with the sport myself, I'd wonder if there wasn't something clinically wrong.

Diana is an excellent player too. The three of us played two full rounds and most of a third over two days. Friday was a treat, playing a round in Clearwater in the AM, visiting the best disc golf store on the planet (like there are some in space), having lunch out, and playing a great course in the afternoon. We had to cut that short because I had to beat the traffic out of Tampa, which was unsuccessful (only cost me 30 minutes). A killer course full of water (and alligators I was told), I did run into some good old boys from Maryland only one county over.

The night before we ate at an Oriental place, where we spent most of the meal trying to determine whether to keep my fish on fire, or smell aluminum foil all meal (Diana finally poured water on it...so smart).

They have a really cool house with some interesting backyard design...

Many other fun little stories, but that's plenty for now. The important thing is that I finally got to meet them (we were to meet Mark aka Atomic Rooster too, but he had work projects). I just spent 12 hours yesterday in the car and 4 Friday night, plus driving down last week and visiting both coasts of Florida.

Stan and Diana are two of the nicest people you'll ever meet (Mossy can vouch for that), and it was worth all of the driving. I sure hope to see them again soon.

Now back to the grind...at least until Rosfest.

Hi All!

Anyone in Southern California? Yorba Linda will have it's annual art festival and there will be some good music to be heard as well. For one, the Ron Kobayashi Trio will perform...this band is HOT!

Details here http://www.artsyl.org/

I would love to meet any interested Moonies....

Jim? We talked about you coming North...;)

Re: Moonies Meeting Moonies
 

I had the pleasure of meeting Nadina in Seattle last night. We had a great vegan Chinese dinner & chats.

This was my first AM hook-up, but she was very gentle with me :)
