I booked my flight and room today fro Seattle Jam. Anyone looking for a place to crash give me a PM. The room has two beds, Juan and Brett have already confirmed they are staying with me, but I reckon we have plenty of floor space left over.

BTW, the break dancing workshop sounds wicked! How about a beatbox one Alex? :)

Is anyone driving to Seattle? It seems most are flying. For the people who are driving, is anyone driving through eastern washington? I live in Spokane, WA, which is probably 15 min away from the Idaho border inside washington. I have never been to anything like this before, and I don't have my license or even a car :twisted:

Can anyone help me out, and hook me up with a ride if they are driving through town? I would be forever thankful if anyone can help me out. :wink:

Don't Dary/Sunny, and Jim Penske live in Idaho...? You should call them up, as I don't think any of them frequently post here - I know Jim doesn't at all.

Yes I must second the understated statement that this event is going to be phat! Let everyone know about it in your area. Go to the local juggling club and make sure they all know about it. Give a ride to your juggler friend out but make sure you get your ass here and don't end up missing the fest.

DON'T MISS THIS EVENT!!

Without a doubt, SJFF has become the biggest bestest mostest North American Footbag Event. You don't want to miss this after the fall of Western Regionals, World's moving overseas, and who knows what will happen with CSS now that so many shredders have moved out of Colorado.

SEATTLE JUGGLING AND FOOTBAG FESTIVAL is *your* Worlds if you can't make it to Helsinki this summer.

See you there -- the shred is on.

Why do people keep ripping into CSS and Colorado scene?!
Here's the difference between the shred population from CSS5 to now: Daryl and Sunny moved to Idaho and Brad Kaplan moved in. One person! It's not "so many people". Sunny and D will be here for CSS6. Selling our scene and upcoming event short isn't going to help yours.
We've got plenty of young talent trying hard to improve and keep our scene going strong. That is not a very encouraging. Come on, Jane. :(

Sorry Chris...just pumping up our event.

Yeah, the Colorado scene has seen many shredders come and go over the years, but losing Jane Jones was the unkindest cut. Me, I just wanted to go somewhere where I could drive around in my car and not have to yield to all those bicycle riders. I think Eli just hated living in those mountains. Who needs 'em...

Return of the Disco Ninja!!

Post by Zerbalicious »

Well I guess there's no return because Tuan's never been to Seattle. But I just received word that Tuan Vu will be attending this year's Fest!
I'm psyched!!!

But I'm bummed that Juan isn't coming WTF???
I thought you were going to make it. I hope your plans change and you can find a cheap flight or a ride or something. Please let me know if there's anything that I can do to make it possible for you to come.

See everyone in a week!!!!!

I actually just took the time to read every post on this fest and am now like 100 times more stoked. This is going to be mad crazy and although, due to work I will be missing a lot, if not most of this years fest, I will be there every other second I have.

Its getting close, are you going to be at one of the years biggest shred parties?
Its all or nothing
