Suspi, I didn't see you.. AT ALL :( If you PM me back and give me your paypal address, I'll send you money to just mail me my badge.  I can't believe I didn't see you. I was in the Artist Alley a LOT.

Aw, I was sad I couldn't make musicfest. I had no idea it was on Sunday. On the little mini program guide, the day and time wasn't listed at all. I looked it over multiple times, maybe I missed it, but I had a few other people check as well and no one could find it. Oh well, maybe next year! I was hoping it was on Saturday though lol.

It's pretty safe to say that the times would be approximate, but going by how it's been in the past years, it sounds pretty close ^^

Unfortunately, me and my girls won't be able to make it as we have a photoshoot at 11am in other costumes.

Have fun everyone! Maybe next year ^^

I have to say that does look pretty deliciously fabulous. Not fattening at all either! YUM!

Thanks for your input! Everyone has their own tastes and personally, I don't care for Perfume at all. I think THEY can't sing.. SO what do you know? lol We all like what we like. I personally think SPEED is fantastic. And yes only 2 of the girls sing, but.. so what? Doesn't make the other 2 girls bad.. If they hated it so much they wouldn't have gotten back together. Koharu from Morning Musume can't sing. Hiroko and Eriko NOT being able to sing? Not true at all. But again we all have our tastes. All we're doing is giving this guy suggestions of groups to listen to. We don't need to get into a debate of WHY we like or dislike them. We'll leave it up to the original poster.

I DO have to agree with your suggestion on Globe. I love Globe.

Other suggestions:

Zone
Day after Tomorrow
B'z

Check out SPEED. They are my favorite group and were HUGE back in the 90s (they were really young) and have just officially got back together in Aug '08. And their new style is awesome!

A 4 girl group, where only 2 girls sing... and the two girls that do sing were bad back then, and are now horrible...

Definitely check them out.

Realistically, I did enjoy a few songs by Speed back in the 90's. Admittedly, I bought the collections albums when they broke up(what in '99?). But man, I listened to them again a few months because my friend told me they got back together. I never realized JUST HOW BAD(I knew they were bad) they really were. Then the friend showed me some of their new stuff... and it had only gotten worse.

Speed's stuff is just generi-hiphop stolen pop. They were some of the first hip-hop inspired pop groups in Japan, since you know, Japan is always about 10 years slower than America...

If you want a more up to date version of Speed go listen to Perfume. It'll sound better too.

Some stuff no listed,

Porno Graffiti
AcidMan
Inoue Joe
Radwimps
Shiina Ringo
Tokyo Jihen
The Brilliant Green
Globe
Akiakane (wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww)

hey,
I am comming to fanime for the 2nd year in a row with a Group called CCClub (Comunity Culture Club)
3 members of the club are going as characters from Pokemon:
Their all human versions though...not furries.
they would love to see your Meganium from Gijinka Pokemon and Plusle from Gijinka Pokemon.
hope to see you there.

Hey thanks! Ours are the human forms as well :) Depending on the when the final time for the Pokemon gathering is, we'll be there on Sunday. Otherwise, I believe my girls will wear them on Friday as well. Come up to us and say hi if you see us :D

I personally think it's a great idea. The "surprise" factor is always fun. Think of it like a hidden camera somewhere and someone comes up to you and says "you just won so and so". Are you surprised?? Heck yeah. Are you skeptical at first "What's the catch??" Of course. And then there won't REALLY be a hidden camera, although that could also be a nifty thing for later years if it turns out to be a big thing. Then it's something that could go on the website :D But once word gets around that this could be a regular thing, people will be all over it. I mean who DOESN'T like getting free stuff? Especially GOOD stuff?

*hopes to get chosen* hahaha :D

lol I see I see, understood :D

My kids' school is open on Friday in the east bay, but I'm letting them miss the day as we're going to Fanime on Thursday.. And anyways, they get good grades, so I'm not worried :D And their Star Testing was this past week, so they are good to go!

lol unusual? All I did was put a side ponytail :D Maybe I should post a pic with my hair down. We'll see!

Check out SPEED. They are my favorite group and were HUGE back in the 90s (they were really young) and have just officially got back together in Aug '08. And their new style is awesome!

It's also really hard to get certain musicians as well. The staff is trying their best and I say having ANY act is worth it. And you never know, you might come out just loving these performers you never heard of before. Give it a chance!

It's no problem really. Just pick a time and stick with it :) Unfortunately not everyone can be there at the same time. It would be great, but it's the reality ^^ Even if I can't be there, I may be able to sneak on by to take pics. Although hmm, *I* may still be in my pokemon costume even though my kids won't be. And they are in the same general area, so who knows, I might be able to make whatever time you make it. Don't fret though! :)

Well we all know I will forever be 25 :D

lol and yeah, I don't even remember those other pics, I think they were old webcam pics or something.. EW.

lol I think that would be cool.

Domyouji from Hana Yori Dango

Wow, it's been awhile since I posted a pic on this board.. soooo why not? Oh how I've grown up *sniff*.. *cough*..

I'm wayyy over being an adult, but I really enjoy Sarah Dessen's young adult books :D

I'm stoked because I finally finished some costumes that I have been working on for years and then put them on the back burner to complete other stuff!

My costumes for Fanime '09:

Shia from Pita Ten (new)
Hina Ichigo from Rozen Maiden (new)
Plusle from Gijinka Pokemon
Abe Natsumi from Salt5

And MAYBE if I'm able to, I'll redo my old Sumomo so it FITS (lol) and finish up Jeanne from Kamikaze Kaitou Jeanne

Now for my daughters, here are their lists!

Keiko:

Sakura from Cardcaptor Sakura (new)
Sailor Saturn from Sailormoon (2nd version)
Meganium from Gijinka Pokemon

Autumn aka Aki:

Chibichibi from Sailormoon ~ School uniform (new)
Sailor Neptune from Sailormoon
Pichu from Gijinka Pokemon

And I'm currently working on Tomoyo's school uniform from CCS so that she can wear it while Keiko is Sakura! But we'll see if I can finish it in time! >.<
