A group to explore the setting up of a meet and greet between fans in the United States this Spring. Lexx Vegas has been mentioned on other groups, so that is where we are shooting for this year. It was suggested Lexx UsCon could become a movable Lexx Vacation, visit a new place and see your freinds at the same time. [img]images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img] Next year?? Who know, Lexx Orleans?? Albuquerque New Lexxico, or maybe the Lexxordia Keys.

A lot of interest was expressed, so I would like to nail down a date fairly soon. With airfares so cheap, now would be a great time to get tickets. Some of the feeback I got from previous emails was that feb/march might be too early for some, and that Lexx Vegas gets too cold at night then. So I checked the weather, guess what, they are right!!! Alot of the main attractions in Lexx Vegas are water related and occur at night, so perhaps the first weeks of May might be better. It’s warm but not beastly, and will still give those who wished to do UnCon a chance to do both if they so desired.
Lexx Vegas is know for being reasonably priced (more or less) and they are starting to run a lot of specials right now, so if we don’t take too long over deciding a date, we might get some good rates.
Hope to see ya at UsCon

Albuquerque, New Lexxico; lol. Not that I’m really arguing with Albuquerque, hell it would be very cheap for me, and I could provide rooms a few others for free as well, but there isn’t a whole lot to do down here in the middle of the desert. But now that I think about there is enought that could be done for tourists over a weekend.
The funny thing about USCon and New Mexico is that the average american thinks that its not even a state and that a passport is required to get in. (True) The Lexxorida Keys sounds good though. [img]images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]12th November 2001 at 5:35 pm #61184theFreyParticipantquote:

[b]Actually, I would think that the Albuquerque, New Lexxico Balloon Festival would be a perfect future get together for the fans of S3. :-)[/b]

Oh yeah, how could I have forgotten about that, smacks head. If you want need any information about the Ballon Fiesta 2002 let me know. Keep in mind that the last one took place a few short weeks ago. So the next one will be about the same time.

Well no I imagine not, since apparently UnCons can only take place in Halifax. That is why we are trying to drum up interest in an UsCon (Takes place in the United States) so I suppose you will have to start an EnCon! 🙂 But then, I think you already have a few other Lexx Cons going in your part of the World. 🙂

Well I’m not sure what that con was called FX, I am just going off the discussions on the UnCon board when it was originally suggested that the UnCon move to Vegas. It was quite plainly stated by the powers that be, that that would be [b]SomeOtherCon[/b] else, since UnCons could only take place in Hali. [img]images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

It may have been, but no this was long before UnCon last year. It was just peeps tossing out ideas for the 2001 UnCon that did not involve halifax. Which is how the whole thread came about I think.
