Now THIS is what I am talking about. Something close to me, where I could just drive down real quick. I will try to get my schedule cleared for this. For anyone curious, my Adegan Relic Lightsaber Build will be there The only one of my lasers I won't be bringing is my ML Argon because I bet there will already be one there and it is big.

I wish I lived closer to some of the groups of people. Sounds like it would be a good time

I was HOOKED big time on both DIY PJs and LEMs instantly- at SELEM Oct 2010- in NOv I held my own LEM and it was a huge success as first time LEMs go- I began to gather psrts to build a 3.5 W RGB full colors PJ .. a woark (still ) in progress- i keep upgrading my parts and have PJs from Laserking to use so-

Like PJs- and our beloved handhelds the LEMs themselves are addicting- and being around just a few like-minded folks is nice BUT when its 100 people talkin' laser- sharing and enjoying them and the shows n music-- has to be seen in person to understand--we watch 12 hours of shows or more each day- two venues in the same complex- Club SELEM for beam Shows and Atmospherics and the big audiitorium for graphics, abstracts and animations etc-
Our non forum guests attend free- all sign the same insurance waiver- no exceptions- its SOP at ALL LEMs afaik--

see the ytube vids- TEXLEM- SELEM - Club Selem- UKLEM- NWLEM CalLEM- world wide- another huge event is the German 'LaserFreaks' meeting-


'Any LEM of two(or moar) members and one (or moar) laser is a good LEM'

Re: TEXAS POP_UP MINI Meet Aug 9th=in DFW area

Well I hate to say it but tonight is not going to end up working out. I was very excited to get to meet some of the people I talk to on the forum all the time but as usual life gets in the way. Suffice it to say there were familial and work related issues. I hope when we have a TEXLEM next I will be able to clear my schedule more completely. Who knows, maybe my super at work will figure out what off means lol.

Re: TEXAS POP_UP MINI Meet Aug 9th=in DFW area

N/P I.T.

Tonite
Gadget I got up with DFW Larry- great convo he is interested in DFWLEM some day-
I sent invites - to most all up that way. BE back 20th round two with as many more=

Checking out a very nice venue (maybe too nice) Sunday-
might be excellent for future LEMs as a many are needed to commit and make one happen w/ enough attending to cover rent +
setting up foe single night seems a waste.

S0me who cant join us Fri-only LEM could come maybe Sat..

Attendee Members invite friends- some become members-more friends etc.
No charge for SELEM-
so 40 attendees could yield many more with their friends- :- ]

The beauty of having one near you is free lodging and little travel.

and be able to invite a lot of family & friends.

For liability reasons LEMs afaik are never 'open to the public'
no tickets to buy=

a mix of awe and sadness is felt when so few are there.....
(cant be in two venues at same time)
that happens when there are two venue both running a lot of full color PJs
keeps you wishing all the forum could be there=
as there is plenty room.


more later
