Escapism Melbourne 2010, details!

[ottenni]

For those of you who are cool enough to be attending Escapism Melbourne 2010 i have good news, its all planned.

When i hear you say, why on the 12th of June. My calendar tells me that this is a long weekend so you should have no excuses.

Where i bet you are wondering. Outside of EB games at 11am sharp would be the place to be. If you don't know where that is, google it hippie! Or ill meet you elsewhere, that works too.

What, are we going to do? I hear you wonder. What cant we do, we can go bowling, laser tag, imax and even the ART GALLERY. Get some culture into you damn kids.

So be there, or be square. And by square i mean boring.

Oh and ill have a backpack with a Chewbacca lego toy attached to the front so you can recognize me. If you want to know what i look like, check out the Accent thread mark 2.

EDIT: Oh and, group!

For those too lazy to check up.

Anyway, good luck Australians! The Irish Escapism seems to have fallen through a bit, again, but it's nice to see this is still going.

AHHHHHH ITS ME!

Ahem. Thank you Furburt. And good luck with your escapismisms.

There are 2 EB's in Melbourne Central?

Well the one near donut king. And the time is 11am. So no early morning for me to catch the train. Hooray!

June 12th, eh?

Better start walking...It's quite a trek from America, I hear.

Well you hadn't mentioned Central so how was I to know, and I'll probably be there a tad early that day as I have a 2 hour trip so might as well make the most of the day and go visit a few of the stores as well

Yeah i have a 2 hour trip as well, hence why its at 11. Saves me getting up early.

Ehh, I'm in Adelaide. Boooo.

Hope you guys have a blast. Take pictures!

I'm interested. But at the same time, new people and social activities with new people are quite scary. I think I'm going to have to think about this one...

 

[BlueberryFalacy]

There's an EB at Melbourne Central?!
I'll have to look at the store map or something...

Anyway, I should be able to make it. Work experience could possibly get in the way, but I think that might be later.

Oh yeah, & it feels damn fine being able to get there in half an hour, I can tell you.

Melbourne
Shop 062, Melbourne Central Shpng Cntr, La Trobe St (cnr Swanston St)

that should help, I only asked as Melbourne has 3 EB's apparently (one in centeral at the corner of swanston, one further down swanston and one on elizabeth)

 

[BlueberryFalacy]

Don't worry, I know it's in Melbourne Central & where Melbourne Central is, just where in Melbourne Central it is.
I'll probably rock down there today, see if I can find it.

it's on the ground floor and looks to be at the north end of little lonsdale (if you are going to check can you verify this for me?

There will be donuts.

Are you enticed yet?

Ok. Yeah. Right here. I'll stomp on down. Make sure someone has a camera. Or a video. Or is a really fast painter. Or is a cowboy. Riding a dinosaur.

Camera, yes. I'm working on that. I may have to beg or steal though. So if it has blood on it don't ask.

 

[Styphax]

Maybe 2011, then I'll be down there (Though still about 15 hours drive away) But hell, I've driven to Chicago from Richmond, so maybe Brisbane to Melbourne won't be too terrible.

Unfortunately I'm at the Gold Coast, so I won't be able to attend, but please post plenty of info about how it goes
