we need a midwest (chicago,minneapolis,detroit) circuit, to make it financially viable to bring people all the way from london to the west coast. the midwest is key because it's a quick hop from the east coast and sharing airfares won't be too deep. intineraries likethis would be easy, once we have the midwest......london>new york>baltimore>toronto>ottawa>chicago>detroit>vancouver>san fran>los angeles >london.

another thing to consider is that traditionally airfares from/to london and inside america are highest during the summer due to school/university holidays and the better weather. fall and winter, excluding xmas/newyears time...is really cheap all over the uk and us. my ticket to dmz last month was $210 return from ny>london. the same ticket in june/july/august is like $550

Texas is a good stop between the coasts as well. :D
It may not be as quick or as close of a stop as Chicago, but it could work.

We need it. It involves a lot of people doing the right things, though. For my part, I plan on stepping things up on the westside asap (i.e. once I get this wedding paid for, grrrr). I got plans...

I am getting married on Halloween so finances tied up at the moment.
We will get something sorted soon.

We had a great turnout last night at Plush for the first all dubstep night I've had. Normally I'll play dubstep at my DnB weekly but last night, people showed up knowing it was solely dubstep.

Slowly but surely heads are catching the virus.
