Plus several

operated devices were also in attendance. If you attended and your name is not on the list above,
email
me! (By the way, this is IndyJones1023!)
What is on the DVD?
This isn't all about me. I have tried to include all of the other
attendees in order for as many as possible to enjoy it. So, it's not just
hours of mindless "vacation footage" you're used to from Uncle Owen and
Aunt Beru. Music! Pictures! Video! It's all here! Including:
-
Mav's Fear of Flying (footage shot
on the plane ride to Vegas)
-
TC-Con at ESPN Zone (the actual con
itself)
-
The Star Trek Experience
-
"Song for TC" music video from
Mavenelle (not the tiny web version!)
-
Little Black Dresses (they were
sure lookin' hot!)
-
A Con Montage (a Contage, if
you will)
-
Plus bonus Hotlanta pictures
All of this is easily accessed thru
DVD menus with a TiVo theme. Also included are all the pictures used in
the DVD on a DVD-ROM portion of the disc, plus the "TiVo Con Vegas" song
and outtakes.
When did this take place?
June 8, 2004 was the day of the official convention at the ESPN Zone. But
several attendees showed up early and stayed late for many of the
unofficial activities, which included gambling, a visit to
the Olympic Gardens strip club, Drink Link, Hoover Dam and Grand Canyon
tours, and a trip to a galaxy far, far away. Oops, I mean, a trip to the
Star Trek Experience.
Where did the debauchery
take place?
Where else? Vegas, baby! That's right, Sin City itself was host to our
transgressions. Because what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas, right? The
NYNY Hotel and Casino was our destination and did a nice job of hosting
our gathering with their fine facilities, including the ESPN Zone where
the actual "convention" took place.
Why did you do it?
Good question. Little meets seemed to be popping up more and more on the
board. Then it was someone's great idea (email
me if it was you for proper credit!) to organize an official
nation-wide meet. A dream was given form (too B5-ey for ya?) and soon
Kevin (unixadm) started nailing down the details. Many threads were
started! So many in fact that this event had it's own section for a while.
How much for my own copy?
Well, herein lies a conundrum wrapped in a mystery which ate an enigma. Or
something like that. As I stated above, this is my vacation. As I do with
all my family footage, I have used some copywritten material to make it
more fun for my personal enjoyment. Mostly in the form of a few tracks of music. So, I
can't sell you a copy. However, I have incurred costs in producing these
discs. Also, I spent dozens of hours (maybe even over a hundred) in making
this. Usually it's just a hobby, but for this I really tried to make it as
professional as possible.
Considering all the above, I hope you
can "donate" some money to help me recover my costs. I actually hate doing
this, as I didn't go to the con as a form of income. I went to meet you
all and have fun. But being the video guy I am, I made this disc. I hope
you enjoy it as much as I do. It really makes me want to go back again!
