Is this not Digg-spam? :D

Okay, Dugg.

I'm tempted to go up just to take the train right back down. But how would I get the best possible seats that way?!

Okay, off to go dig out my DiggNation cropped halter.

[lugarza]

I'm just moving to SF this Sunday, never been there before. Can you take the train back to SF? Sorry, I'm a complete idiot I know...

[alfredr1]

Will they be alcohol available there?

according to: http://www.caltrain.com/timetable.html#weekday-northbound

train 193 will leave san jose at 8:30, and you can get off at milbrae at 9:33 for bart access, otherwise check out the rest of the stops...

only problem is, does DASH run late night? or is it too long a walk from the center for performing arts to the caltrain station?

[zippy]

Can't wait! :)

[nycowboy]

will this be streamed on the web?

[ariastar]

Come see? I'm already there. Nothing's happening yet!!

[peppersghost]

If I had friends that liked Diggnation I would totally go.

[nextgenxbox]

So who went? Did the 4000 seats get filled??

[rowlodge]

so was it streamed or will this be on friday?

[storybox]

The 4,000 seats weren't filled but there were lots of big Diggnation fans there, it was really cool. I just made a new blog post about the live show actually, you can check it out here: http://jamieryan.wordpress.com/
There's some pictures and videos on there too. :)

You were right behind me almost!

In your blog you said it was a little less than half full. The didn't even open the upper-level seating. So the lowest level was a little under half full.

I'm totally guessing here, but do you have orange hair?? I thought I saw someone with an iPhone (although there were lots of people with iPhones...) who was right in the row in front of me on the Revison3 site.

And yeah, I'll go change that. Thanks.

[dragonbladev]

less than half full? are u kidding me, i was sitting dead center next to the camera guys and every seat in front of me was filled and half the seats behind me were filled, more like 3/4 full if u ask me.

anyway, the show was awesome, i recorded the first 5 min of them coming on stage and setting up for the show and then my cameras card got full.

i also competed in some tournaments and lost, but at the end of the lan i won a gigabit geforce 9600 gt 512mb. kinda made the trip that much cooler:cool:

ps. prager died his hair.

I thought it was Glenn that dyed his hair. I saw the pics.

[pika]

The show was awesome!!! Totally worth the long ass trip... It really sucked going straight from Ft Lauderdale airport to work after spending the whole night on a plane. Met a ton of cool ppl, only got the twitter/fb from a few... Who of u went to the show and remember me and Jamie?

Only I wore a different jacket to it, Cody's Digg hoodie. Same top though. A triangle of fabric held on with a couple ribbons. If that's who was in front of you, that was me.

And I was iPhoning it. :D

Sorry, yes I meant red hair. :P
Yep, I believe it was you! You weren't directly in front of me, but one seat to the left.

Well, since red is so uncommon and I didn't see any other, that would have been me. :)

So what'd you think of the show?

[monkeyhead007gunslin]

Alex albrecht, mr "bohemian grove", i.e. episode 105, is selling out everyone who likes him. How dare you alex, you uninformed wannabe neocon. Did any of the illumined cornhole you at the grove? Did you enjoy the cremation of care? I enjoyed your ignorant bliss until you ruined diggnation and totally rad by announcing your alliance with satan. i absolutely expect your ambivalence to this message. you and your dad will be held responsible for your collective treason. Does your girlfriend know how you are sending americans to concentration camps by your support of the esoteric agenda? Your ignorance is your loss. Sad man, really pathetic.

[pika]

Did you fly out here just to go to the show?

Ya, me and the wify did... Totally worth it tho...

[ariastar]

So what'd you think of the show?

Fun times. :)
