[suburbanxcore 880]

Already in the works...

August 5, 6, 7 at Crowne Plaza Hotel Reading

Sick poster by Chris Conn up.

Tim Lehi, Valerie Vargas, Stewart Robson, Dan Smith, Shaun Topper, Greg Whitehead, Teide, Andreas Coenen and more. Wild ass already.

Just booked my room for the weekend. I didn't get an apt with Valerie (you lucky dog) but working on getting Hendrick's confirmed. I'll be starting on a collaborative piece with Grez/Rubendall/Henning that weekend!

Is Henning going to be there? Or just starting the Grez and Rube parts at Pagoda and Henning will jump in later?

[Gingerninja 2,115]

Henning will not be at Pagoda...I have an apt with him in October when he's stateside. I'm stoked!!!

[suburbanxcore 880]

Wow. That collab sounds wild. I'm so curious. I'll probably try to book with Scott again. It's so hard for me to have him on the east coast and not try to get in.

[Gingerninja 2,115]

Agreed! They are working up a piece that will fill all the space on my back down to my butt with botanicals representing the four seasons.

Just realized I'm very likely going on vacation the next week, so I don't think I'm getting tattooed if I want to go swimming and hit the beach. If I don't leave early for my trip I'm still going to go up for one day, though.

[Gingerninja 2,115]

Oh, snap. You're right...if you want to have fun at the beach, the timing isn't right. I just passed on the Lost Highway Festival since I can't afford to do both the festival and Pagoda. Damn it! The lineup at Lost Highway is killing me. I really wanted to go but you know it's s function of time and $$!

[Patrick Bateman 306]

I'm thinking about hitting this up, depending on my cash flow for the next few months.

It would be my first time going to Pagoda.  Hoping that some would take a walk-up but not holding my breath as I'm pretty sure everyone is probably booked.

Hope to meet some of you. 

[Gingerninja 2,115]

I saw very few walkups but you never know. I was on a wait list and it worked out for me last year! @Patrick Bateman I feel like this year it's bigger although that ballroom isn't that large. I bet it will be packed with folks this year.

Dan Smith cancelled going to Pagoda. Crapity, crap, crap, crap. Now, I'm at the utter mercy of someone cancelling on another awesome artist for a Sunday appointment.

That is disappointing. I hope something good comes your way.

Ooooh, that sucks big time. I hope you find a good slot with another artist!!

[Gingerninja 2,115]

Thanks @Mark Bee and @Devious6!  I have emails out to a few folks. I doubt I'll get in with someone that I want but it never hurts to ask, right? I'm there for the entire duration since I'm in Philly the week before and have to be in Virginia the following Monday. Light a candle for me.

[suburbanxcore 880]

@Gingerninja that stinks about Dan Smith. At least you've got some other awesome stuff goin down. Let me know if you'd be up for a meet up while you're in philly!

[Gingerninja 2,115]

Hey there. I'd totally be up for a meet up! I'm traveling for work next week to your city starting on Wednesday. Let's figure something out. @suburbanxcore

[polliwog 866]

@Gingerninja Virginia Elwood just posted something about having a couple spots open up due to cancellations on her Instagram account.

[Gingerninja 2,115]

I saw her post and I grabbed it! Thanks for thinking of me!!! @polliwog 

[polliwog 866]

Excellent!! And jealous!

[Gingerninja 2,115]

Stewart just had a cancellation!!

[Patrick Bateman 306]

@suburbanxcore

@Gingerninja

did you guys get anything?  Post em.

 

Anyone else anything this past weekend???

[Gingerninja 2,115]

@Patrick Bateman Check out the lowdown thread for photos. It was an *awesome* weekend!

[marley mission 2,030]

the lineup looked amazing - it really did - i almost ended up seeing todd noble there but i really couldnt do it as we are vacationing this week and will be swimming and such - just couldnt heal right under the conditions - anyway - it looked like it was probably a blast

[suburbanxcore 880]

@Patrick Bateman This was the first year I didn't go. I was away that weekend, unfortunately.
