Local gatherings on DH release eve....
I was wondering if we can find out where are the book release parties are going to be.
If a current member here is going to a local party, maybe we can meet and share views and have fun at the gethering.
I live in Metro Detroit, Michigan. If some one from the area is planning to attend a gathering, and want to go together, it would be thrilling.
Maybe other area members can also post and find out who is going where.
thanks

I also started a poll. Let us see how many people are attending the eve parties.....

Re: Local gatherings on DH release eve....
Well, I voted yes, but that is a little deceiving. I am going to sign up, but not staying for the kiddie activities. When HBP was released I went to the Barnes & Noble release party, and I won some cool things, but I ended up giving them all away to people that I knew and their children. This time I am not going to stress over the crowd, (and all the overly excited children.) I will go at 7:00, (if the line is not too long,) and sign up. You get in line by the color band you get which depends on what time you got in the ****ing line. If the line is too long, I will wait until Saturday morning to get my books.

Re: Local gatherings on DH release eve....
Well i picked the last one because in Australia it goes on sale a 9:01am which is 12:01am in England so because our midnight comes first we have to wait until Englands midnight which i dont mind at all but it means we miss out on any midnight parties  but i am glad that we dont have to wait like the west coast of America, i feel sorry for you guys over there...

Re: Local gatherings on DH release eve....
I'll be at local B&N with DD7 until 9:30-ish, when her daddy will take her home to bed (showing up at 4:00 to get wristband, and coming back around 6:30 for the party). Then, I'll stay and watch the games, etc. Get the book at midnight and go home to read. I'll read until I finish!!!! Yea, me!

Re: Local gatherings on DH release eve....
I'll be sleeping, patiently waiting for Fed-Ex or UPS to roll up Saturday morning and hand me our books. I'd love to join the festivities, but my wife works evenings and we have a 2 year old, so it just ain't gonna happen.

Re: Local gatherings on DH release eve....
I'm going to be attending the midnight party at Chapters. It's not really for the party but just because it's the only place I can get the book at 12am. As soon as I get the book... im going straight home and reading!

Re: Local gatherings on DH release eve....
we get the book at 9am, but a friend and i will be at the book shop by 6am...seeing as how it is the middle of winter here, that will be a pretty good effort.
i have decided against wearing my weird sisters t-shirt, but may throw on my travelling cloak for extra warmth.

Re: Local gatherings on DH release eve....
i will wake quite early (as in australia i can get the book at 9.01am) at 8ish i will walk about ten stores down to the angus and robertson (living in the city is bliss!) and wait for the book, im not really sure if a huge line will be there, i asked and the woman said to expect one but i think more ordered from borders, the second i get the book i will run back to my apartment and read till i finish. i get a sick feeling in my stomach whenever i realise its so close!
