all sounds interesting... everything subject to work commitments..

booked my tickets.. and hotel.. all set to go and enjoy!!!

I'll be there!

excellent... I'm hoping to get some interviews with the acts once they are announced... it sounds like it's going to be a great one this year

It is a great convention. It has a lot more...personal feel to Blackpool, or so I am told by several Magicians.

any recommended hotels for this? (I'm thinkin cheap given I know how much sooms usually cost when I get down there for work)

Or one of the London lot fancy putting me up

www.magicconventionguide.com and use the laterooms or hotel.com search for hotels in the area...

the novotel is a bit pricey.. I normally stay in the Premier Inn over the road..

will have a link to that on on the site in a bit...

Luckily I live relatively close, anyone in the same sort of age group is more than welcome, got a wholeeee damn house free for that weekend!

just updated to start listing near-by hotels

http://www.magicconventionguide.com/gui ... on-hotels/

The guide has two links to hotels.com showing a map of hotels in the area of the shaw theatre.. and also to laterooms.com around the postcode for the shaw theatre.

If anyone has any reviews or recommendations for international weekend.. let me know via email and I'll add it to the list and links..

apologies if this has been covered elsewhere, but is there a 'line up' for the weekend up anywhere??

Its not been announced yet who is on the line up.. Except the info listed on the site thats it at the moment...

Noel said he'd let me know once its announced...

I had a nice chat with Martin in International Magic the other day (and a nice cup of tea). He told me that the line-up for IMC 2008 will be published soon, but one of the lecturer will not be announced on beforehand at all. Just as he enters the stage. Obviously somebody mega-famous!

This is the same thing they did when Derren Brown held a lecture a few years back and they did it to avoid having a lot of members of the public coming and asking for photos and autographs before and after the lecture.

I got the feeling that it would be a situation where, if you will take the chance and come there, you will be happy you did, but if you didn't, you would say afterwards: Gee, I wish I would have gone to IMC 2008.

I wonder who it will be...

I really wouldn't mind attending this convention, but I'm afraid I have university commitments.

The line up is looking good...

all the information is being put up here: http://www.magicconventionguide.com/tag ... tion-2008/ as I get it from them...

Sadowitz won't be happy Kaufman is going to be there!

Richard Turner on the other hand, his card work is unmatchable.
