February 19: Dracula’s Ball in Philadelphia.


http://www.draculasball.com/

Isn't that kinda far?
I miss Patrick and Draculas Ball

actually i think there was a pirate raid late last year that went to phili - so some of our hardcores may make that journey, yeah its a long drive, but what the hell - sounds like fun

Road trip to my hometown? I'll hook you up with cheesesteaks, soft pretzels and the like.....

*disclaimer* Dracula's Ball is only for the super uber goth.

as much as i would love the cheesecake, this clashes with temple and not being uber goth i would most likely get turned away at the door

Me, KarlaBoo and Arkady went last May when Arkady was invited to DJ...it was pretty fun, though I really want to go again simply to go to the Mutter Museum which we didn't get to see on our weekend up there.

"One Saturday we took a walk to Zipperhead" and that was I think the highlight. Digital Ferret was pretty cool, too, and Patrick was very friendly and accomodating even though he had so much to do.

I had a good time, but it made me feel much better about our scene, people in a big city are just as likely to be poseurs and wankers as are people around here...I was expecting to meet, like, pretentious uber goths, but I think we were cooler than most of the people there and thank goodness, we're not yankees

I spent most of my evening in the band/dj lounge area with The Empire Hideous and Seraphim Shock because my shoes were killing me.. I guess I could get some of those pics up finally.

I have always been proud to be a Yankee, until now. We aren't all pretentious I swear.

OH, and I'm gonna have to disagree on it being for the "super uber goth,' there were plenty of goobs just like ours there . I think Mr. Froustmourne is gonna have to go to the BatCave to find more of "the true goth style" of which none of us can compare...*giggle*

Oh I know, actually I think I like all the yankees I've met on here, except "Laura From NY" and I think it was everyone's opinion that she could just go the hell back...lol

I am sure we are both sharing the caustic wit and knowing that when I said super uber goth I was being sarcastic.

Not to mention the only True Goth's are the Visigoths.....and they sure ain't showing up to Temple or Sanctus.

I am gonna start putting up the pics from Philly in case it may motivate some people to go up there....I cannot, me and Thrall are going to VEGAS!!

I forgive you Buttercup.

Um, I was at the BatCave last month...

There were SO many goobs there.

One huge gentleman (huge as in pro-wrestler huge) was sporting combat boots, black fishnets, vinyl man-thong panties, and black lipstick. That's it.

It was the yuckiest thing I have ever seen.

oh my god... i wish i could go.
and those pictures look really good nice job!

I all most got to go last year. I had the money, but BJ (my ex girlfriend) change her mind about going.

Oh, I've never been there but its good to know that. I am not intimidated with anyone else's scene or city...I was being sarcastic and referring to other posts about NY's supposed superiority.

I've noticed I'm hella cool whereva I go .


And yes, wrestlers in vinyl or fishnet is a disgusting sight that should be outlawed. Nobody wants to see that...

Digital Ferret was pretty cool, too

i crashed at that kids house the last time i was in philadelphia
he booked the show the show for us there

not the owner
but the only other kid that works there
and i forgot his name
and i feel like a dick

but phili is awesome

the relapse store is in that same area as digital ferret
it rocks too

I know... I was just reiterating your sarcasm... Goobs are everywhere...

One of my hopes had been to make it to one of the Dracula's Balls this year; however, it won't be this one, since I already have a week vacation planned the week before.
