Buffy Singalongs. Anybody been?

That's what I get for being in a small city. The crowd wasn't very big or pumped. I hope next time only real Buffy-philes will be there. If there is a next time.

Trivia questions I remember:
What were Mayor Wilkins' last words before the library blew up?
What is Giles' nickname?
Put these people in the order they died: Buffy, Buffy, Joyce, Jenny, Kendra
Put these villians in order: the Master, Glory, Adam, the First
What is Umad?

There were quite a few more, but I'm blanking out right now.
 
I attended a singalong last night and it was a lot of fun. My experience sounds pretty similar to Jone's. The only full episode we watched was OMWF. The pre-show included a MTV news feature on the Buffy Singalongs, the Buffy-oke, a video tribute to Joyce and the trivia.

Some of the trivia questions at our event were:
What was Xander's middle name?
What was Allyson Hannigan's first on screen role?
What was Anthony Stewart Head famous for before Buffy?
How many times was Giles knocked out in the series?

And I forget the rest. There were no prizes but it was a lot of fun. There was a very cute girl dressed up as little red riding hood Buffy which was a nice treat. I thought the shouting at Dawn got a old pretty quickly. Any time she opened her mouth she was greeted with a barrage of shouts from the audience.

Overall it was a really fun night. It was nice to be in the same room with so many people who share the same passion for the series.

sounds like you had an awesome time! i wish one would come to my town soon
Yeah, and on how many times has Giles been knocked out, would the mass blackout in Tabula Rasa count? In fact that's a tough one. Who'd know that off the top of their head? I'd guess 6. What's the answer?

dawn-bashing IS fun, but after a while when people just keep yelling out the same things at her, like 'shut-up dawn!' or 'you suck!'... it does get pretty old. im like, geez, get some new material would ya...

I don't remember the exact answer but I think it was around 13 or 15. They did count the blackout from Tabula Rasa but it didn't seem like a real scientific study of how many times he'd been knocked out by any means.

Yeah I think that was probably my problem with it. It's not that I minded people yelling at Dawn, it was just hearing the same line over and over again wasn't particularly original. It was more obnoxious that anything.
 
I'm going to one in Dallas on September 28th (I believe...) any one else going? I am soooooooooooooooo excited!!! Cannot wait. My sister and I have been practicing the songs whenever we are driving in the car together...we're dorks I know.

i'm a little (alright, alot) jealous i'm not going to the dallas singalong, especially when it's so close to me (im in austin). but my parents are coming this weekend, and i bet they're sold out now anyways. but i'm keeing my eyes open for the next show here in town. it's been a while since they've done one here, so i expect it to be soon... i hope. 🙂

I will have sooo much fun! We are road tripping all the way from OKC (ok it's only 3 hours from Oklahoma city to Dallas I know). My sister and I alternate singing all the different parts. Got our tickets, got directions, all we need now is loads of caffiene (as we both work Saturday AND Sunday) and for it to be tomorrow!!!

So what happened? :) Did you make it?
I cannot wait for the sing a-long in Nashville in November. Tickets have not gone on sale just yet but I am sure they will soon. If you could see me, well I am sitting down so never mind. I was going to lie to you and tell you I was jumping up and down, but I truly am in my mind.
 
I went in august since they have 2 shows a month here (being its there home city here in NYC). planning on going again soon. if only h ad the money id go every month! was a ton of fun and they did a special showing of the wish and dopplegangland afterwards! i didnt get home til 4:30 in the morning but it was worth it!
 
I went to one this past august because it came to Kansas. It was fun but I wish it would come back because I would love to go again I also really would love to see one with the UncoolKids there because I want to see the whole experience.
 
Ok another question. It says it starts at mindnite but what time do people usually start pouring in at? I want to get there for good seats, ya know, not too close not too far etc.
 
WEll i was surprised here, my friend and i showed up at 11 and the line was a quarter of the way down the block. By the time we were being let in, we took up half (maybe more) of a manhattan block. and that is LONG let me tell you.

Yes the Uncoolkids rock, i had some pictures but its on a camera that has been left as my brother's friend's house so, no pics to show you guys right now. 🙁

This month they are having a special halloween one here in NYC and if you come dressed up (i dont know if you have to be a character of if you can be dressed, period) you can go to a pre-party with the uncoolkids and everything (apparently they will even be painting evil insignias on the floor to set the mood lol). i wanna go! I'm gonna see if i can bring another fellow fan friend of mine.
 
Thanks LittleMiss, I wasn't sure what time to head out. Nashville is about an hour away from me and I have pets to consider. My cat can take care of himself but my two dogs...Anya being one of them, I didn't want to leave them for too long. But then again it's at night so they should be fine. They will prob just sleep. I think I will get there around 9ish. Hopefully that's not too late.
 
well i guess they killed my other thread, but they were just stopped by Fox who doesn't want buffy or any of it's other properties shown in theaters. but they are trying to bring it back. they have cancelled and are refunding any upcoming shows.
