Hi all. I think that the maid cafe should actually be in a more enclosed area, such as a panel room. The reason for this is so that the environment can be better controlled. You could put stuff up on the walls, set up special lighting, and create a more exclusive environment. That's what the maid cafe needs most. Having the maid cafe (as in the last two years) in an open area just does not help create the right environment. No maid cafes in Japan are out in the open.

What about returning Music Fest to the Hilton Ballroom, as it was in 2006? The San Jose Civic Auditorium sounded like a huge gymnasium (which is what it is). FanimeCon only filled maybe half of the auditorium and forced convention goers to stand in line for tickets AND entry. When the Music Fest was in the Hilton ballroom, there were no lines, there were in-and-outs allowed, and no heavy handed security. Renting out the SJ Civic Auditorium has got to be a complete waste of money. Along with that, the Civic just sounds like CRAP!
