So Console Passion have the arduous job of running the Fighting Zone at the Retro Ball in December. Yay!
As I'm away next month climbing Kilimanjaro (shameless plug in the hope of some sponsorship money!) I have to get most of this planned in the next few weeks.
So off I go thinking about what I should bring, or more accurately what I should leave. And I kind of get stuck because, to be honest, I don't know what will get well received and what won't. If experience has taught me anything (from the last three or four shows) it is something that is impresses me won't necessarily impress others.
And so I throw the ball in to your court. The attendees. What do you want me to bring? What would you like to play against others? What have you never played before. What do you think sucks and if you saw it would (accidentally of course) pour beer over.
This show is for you guys and gals, so let me know what you want. After all - if you don't ask, you don't get.
I have a few ideas so far - feel free to shoot me down in flames - I'm thick skinned and I'd rather berated now than at the show once it's too late...

So off you go...

Oh, and if anyone is in the Blackpool area and has any Limes they can spare in the next hour or so LMK - Tesco Metro has run out and Corona just isn't the same with Lemons (Or Jiff for that matter either).
