The Epic Voyage - myth or reality?

category: general [glöplog]
 
Many things were said about the incredible Epic Voyage. Some people said that we wouldn't survive, others simply shook their heads and laughed a discreet laugh.

Well, now that we made half of it, it's time to analyze some stuff:

- we DID make it, we are here, the Epic Vehicle is still running and anyway the "worse" (Sweden, Finland) is already behind our backs.

- we spent WAY lot more money than we thought we would. That's because these nordic countries are so expensive. But hey, there's still Switzerland ahead...

- we want to go through with it, until the bitter end. But we can't without your help.

The Epic Voyage is, in modern terms, similar to the voyages of the Mayflower, or Neil Armstrong. Back then, they were backed up with government money, and they did reach their destinations because they had the means to do so. But we aren't backed up by any institution.

So, if you meet us at during the remaining demoparties, and if you have some spare bucks, please donate them to us so that we can experience the demoscene like it should be experienced. In exchange, you will have your name in the donours section in the website, special access to fotos and videos and, of course, the good feeling of contributing to the demoscene in a very special way.

Thanks in advance, the Epic Voyage will continue and, hopefully, reach its final destination.

actually someone to split gas with from frankfurt to buenzli and back would be even nicer. since jeenio is going there to practise with the ultrasound bassist and there is only 2 of them to go by car. (im going on the bustrip from koln)

so frankfurt sceners, wanna demoparty with the cowees or what?

Good luck with the epic voyage. I would love to donate, but I am a bit low on money...
I hope you finish the Epic Voyage. Anyway... You're amazing. I'll see you at inercia, I guess...

I will give some help at Buenzli. ;)
YAY!

Another thing... after Evoke I need to get back home by car and, so far, it seems that I will travel alone. So, if you have to go to France, Spain or even Portugal (there's a nice party from 2nd till 4th September, I'm not telling you this time which one it is) please join...

You can always contact me by email

thank you!

I'll be part of the epic voyage (for some time). \o/
Rulez!
and the Portuguese did it again!
The wasn't so epic voyage since Vasco da Gama discover the path to India!
May the force be with you!
Pouëters! Give our heros some more attention!
yeah, specially now that you are also part of it :)

we made it until buenzli! it's just great, meeting all this sceners (so nice) and enjoying ourselves.

make kool swiss demoschock to our brains!

by the way, if anyone attending evoke wants to go to inerciademoparty (don't forget to come) i can give you a ride, and you would pay very little money (just to help me with the gas costs....)

so, now i'm going back to the party. yay!
