guylainem123 Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 everyone! February is fast approaching and we've been thinking that since so many of us will be present for the Montreal gigs, it would be a shame not to take the time to get together. For those who will be present for the shows, please answer the following poll. Let's discuss!!
foalbaby14 Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 What a great idea! I wish I could attend:sad:' Hopefully he will come to the US soon!
mine Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 Great idea!!!! thank you Guy:thumb_yello: I shall be present on the 3 evenings. For me the date has no importance. I shall be present in the MFC meet-up whatever is the chosen date! Do I have to vote nevertheless? Or then we can add an option " interested whatever is is the date "?

mellody Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 Yeah, same here, all 3 would be fine with me. Just wondering, what time are you thinking of for the meetup? Noon or afternoon? Because i think after the shows it would be a bit late...
mellody Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 I decided to vote for tuesday, as i think it'd be nice to get to know all mfcers and then meet them again at the other 2 gigs. - ofc it'd be more important to include as many mfcers as possible, so pls ignore my vote if there are some who can't be there the first day.
crazyaboutmika Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 If you guys could stream the meeting online that would be so sweet I can't wait to see pics of all of you together anyway Have a wonderful time
Littlelady Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 Yes, it would be nice :thumb_yello: We will be there all three evenings as well( Graciosa, her hubby and me)
cathouzouf Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 I voted for tuesday but should be OK any day. As for times, either lunch or after 5:30pm.
guylainem123 Posted November 17, 2014 Author Posted November 17, 2014 I was thinking of Tuesday as well, then I found out some people are travelling Tuesday. That may make it difficult to arrive, settle, get ready & go to the meetup the 1st night. So I'm thinking the 2nd because of that.
guylainem123 Posted November 17, 2014 Author Posted November 17, 2014 Anything preventing from doing both? Nothing prevents us from getting together to eat, but I'm talking about a proper MFC get together, more than just "eat & go to gig" kinda thing
cathouzouf Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 (edited) Nothing prevents us from getting together to eat, but I'm talking about a proper MFC get together, more than just "eat & go to gig" kinda thing Good, then the official get together should be on the wednesday... Can I change my vote? And let me know if you need help organizing anything... Since I'm in the OSM neighborhood Edited November 17, 2014 by cathouzouf
dcdeb Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 (edited) everyone! February is fast approaching and we've been thinking that since so many of us will be present for the Montreal gigs, it would be a shame not to take the time to get together. For those who will be present for the shows, please answer the following poll. Let's discuss!! Thanks for starting the poll, Guy! My thought is that since these shows are just after our January anniversary, we could have one night that's a REAL party, to celebrate not just Montreal but the MFC's *8th birthday*! Seems to me that this will be the biggest gathering of international MFCers since... I don't know, maybe since Sadlers Wells in 2009. There were about 100 MFCers from all over there. I think we're well over 50 coming for these Montreal shows, I'll have to do another count. Great idea!!!! thank you Guy:thumb_yello:I shall be present on the 3 evenings. For me the date has no importance. I shall be present in the MFC meet-up whatever is the chosen date! Do I have to vote nevertheless? Or then we can add an option " interested whatever is is the date "? Even if you're available all 3 nights, it would be great if everyone could state a preference, since we need to pick just one date. If you guys could stream the meeting online that would be so sweet I can't wait to see pics of all of you together anyway Have a wonderful time I'm not sure if we could stream the whole party, but I bet we can at least part of it. I'll add it to my list. I was thinking of Tuesday as well, then I found out some people are travelling Tuesday. That may make it difficult to arrive, settle, get ready & go to the meetup the 1st night. So I'm thinking the 2nd because of that. Yes, that would be my issue. I arrive midday on Tuesday. As long as everything goes smoothly I can make a Tuesday event, no problem, but if there are any flight delays, I might be in trouble. I'm going to vote for Wednesday. Good, then the official get together should be on the wednesday... Can I change my vote? And let me know if you need help organizing anything... Since I'm in the OSM neighborhood Thanks, Cath. I'm sure we'll be recruiting you for info/help! And I think you should be able to change your vote -- can you? Also, please do keep throwing out your ideas on the time (pre-show vs post-show) and what sort of event you'd like to have. If there are enough of us, I suppose we will need to book a private room...

cathouzouf Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 Can't seem to change it, it says you already voted...

YAY an MFC anniversary party is exactly what i was thinking of, like i've seen done previous years this is gonna be epic! And that's my problem with tuesday too. the possible weather in february is scaring me. i chose wednesday, so hopefully those only going to tuesday's gig will still be around & those only going to thursday may be there already. i vote for any time of day except morning i can tell you right now i'll be too tired to party at 10am Edited November 18, 2014 by kreacher
Treasa Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 (edited) Nothing prevents us from getting together to eat, but I'm talking about a proper MFC get together, more than just "eat & go to gig" kinda thing That would be great. A meetup with plenty of time to mingle and chat. And the other evenings we could just loosely plan to meet somewhere close to the venue for a drink before the show. Or maybe the venue has a bar where we could meet. I'll choose Wednesday also. Edited November 17, 2014 by Treasa
mamiam Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 Also available all evenings. Me too ! I'll be in Montreal both the day before, and the day after the gigs. Thanks a million to you all - for all your efforts and planning! I'm sure it will be amazing, a real M&G and birthday party!! I've voted for Wedensday... Love,love me
Salura22 Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 I've voted for the wednesday I should be arriving in montreal tuesday afternoon and leaving thursday evening, my only worry is if I come along with my sister I might not want to leave her alone too much and I don't think she will want to come along for the meet and greet lmaooo. If i travel alone I am MORE than up for a meet and greet any of those days as long as I am there.
Nanou Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 What a great idea!! It would definitely be pretty cool to have a party all together I chose wednesday because it looks easier for everyone to be there but I don't really care as I'll be here and available on any of the 3 day anyway Also, if you need any help to organize things, etc... even though I'm not a "local", I'll be happy to help if I can as I'll be in Montreal during the whole week (And I've already passed my "can you understand our canadian accent?" exam thanks to Guylaine )

Alie Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 I answered wednesday but it's not 100% sure. I'm a local and if I must be at school, I'll maybe just have the time to go to the show. But I would love a MFC party.
BangBangLou Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 I voted for Tuesday as like a "kick-off" party for the gigs....but after reading I agree that Wednesday would probably work better. I've never met up with more than like 10 mfcers at a gig, let alone a proper meetup. So I'd love this. warning: I'm a hugger, I will hug you.
