Thrill The World October 2010

[Angela_MJJ]

Hi everyone,
In a few months it will be thrill time again and for the first time I'm trying to organize a Thrill The World event on my own (well with an own team). Last year I danced at someone elses event but he can't organize it this year.

I thought it would be nice to meet other event managers here so we can help each other out with questions and stuff.

So if you are gonna host an event come in here and let's talk about it

 

[Angela_MJJ]

Not one person?

 

[jackie11]

Where would it be??

xx

 

[Angela_MJJ]

Well wherever you want it to be. Thrill The World is about volunteers around the world that make it possible for others to dance. You can check the website (when the new website is online) if there is a place near you that hosts a TTW. I organize it in my own city with some friends

I was just looking for people who are going to dance or even better people who host their own event.

Edit: As an eventmanager I am able to see which places will be dancing
In the UK it will be Kilmarnock, London and Southport but these are just pre registrations so could be at more places. Because I know for a fact that in another town there will be dancing too in The Netherlands but only my event is in this chart...

I was in the audience at TTW Helsinki last night. The zombie-dancers were absolutely great! :clapping:
The only disturbance was a drunk guy who in the middle of the dance joined the dancing group, pulled down his pants and started exposing his stuff…:bugeyed

I'm glad to say that TTW Tampere, Finland was very succesful! There were 72 dancers, and lots of audience. I haven't had the time to sort out my photos, but this is me:

My god, that dude... What an idiot. :no: But Helsinki did a good job, I loved their costumes!

 

[Angela_MJJ]

Thanks Laura. We had a few make up artist students from a beautyschool that was really amazing.

Your group looks wonderful too

Me too but last year the response wasn't very high either.
We need to promote it It's such a great event!!

 

[Reeta]

I participated the dance in Helsinki, Finland and here comes a few photos from our Thrill Day

First a small group of us went to do a very successfull promo dance to the local mall.

Yup, that's me

Preparing ourselves for the actual TTW event later that night.

Rehearsing.

I will post some more photos later, because I know there's been taken a better quality photos. I'm hoping to get them soon.

By the way, did anyone in the world listened to the Thrill The World radio station on 23rd? Our voice message from Helsinki zombies was played there several times!

 

[Laura.L.]

@Sharlene: LOL, nevermind, it's ok!

@Carine: Have you got any photos? Would like to see them!

@ Laura did you have to ask for permission or anything to dance outside?

 

[Laura.L.]

Oh bugger, I can't watch your video, Angela, because it's blocked in my country due to copyright issues. :/

Yeah, we got permission for the dance from the police, environmental services and property services. (I hope those are the correct english terms, lol)
