So go! It's not really THAT hard to get tickets to. Make up a business name, create some buisiness cards in photoshop. Make a fake W2/Paycheck Stub and fax er' in!

I pondered doing that, then figured it really wasn't worth the effort ...

The 2 years I have been 98' and 99' I had soooo much fun. The Expo itself is OK, the booth-babes are AWESOME eye candy, but the after parties are where it's at!
If you can get into Sony/NOA/MS Party - you will have a blast! (I have tickets for Sega, Sony, and Nintendo parties this year ^_^

I want to go. I work in the middle of down town, so that's not a problem. I just need somebody who can hook me up with a ticket. 
I'm going to the Final Fantasy Concert (sold out), though! It's on May 10. Two tickets in the orchestra section, center seats :O

Til, nice. Walt Disney Hall is a great concert venue and you should enjoy it. I may have to buy some scalpers for that one. =p
Ug, The Holiday Inn on highland blows but you can take the Metro to Staples in lieu of taking a cab and least you're close to the Hollywood/Highland/Kodak Theatre complex . The shabu shabu restaurant there is a winner and Vert( Wolfgang Pucks) is pretty good. Ask me if you want any bar/club advice since there are many good once accessible by cab or some by even walking....Yes, it is possible to survive without a car in parts of LA.
For all the e3 peeps, Pls 2 b convincing Nobu to have a party at one of his places. And maybe I'll see you at e3 if I can get a ticket myself. =p
=p

Just exactly how ghetto is the Holiday Inn Hollywood?
Being that I am not going down to work @ E3 I can't stay at the MS hotel - but the E3 Reservation center stated that there are E3 Busses that are picking up people at this Holiday Inn so...
Yea, I BETTER get to see both Nobu and Banz while I'm down there!

I'm going because my brother is going to be demonstrating at the Lucas Arts booth for SWG. I am not sure where we are staying, but I am guessing the Hilton or Sheraton.

The Holiday Inn is actually pretty decent and cheap but it's ghetto compared to the lavish hotels in the area. It's actually close to some decent watering holes/clubs in addition to the Metro.
Nobu says, Korean BBQ for fatty!

they have been going hard core on security the past 2 years.. before you could just have someones badge and they would let you in now they actually check badge to ID and if you register with a mispelled name they wont let you in. The americas army demonstration last year was kick ass I hope they do it again.... I am also looking forward to making fun of the half life 2 guys for delaying their game again.
