At first I reluctantly set one up back in late March upon another anon's suggestion since I created an extensive list of places to meet up and things to do. I closed up due to 3 reasons:

1. I explicitly told people to give me their itinerary NO LATER than the end of April/beginning of May - I only got 2 people joining, one of which is Derp Commander.

2. Reason #2 is Derp Commander himself. He ANNOYED the ever-loving piss outta me. He wanted to play backseat driver and bitched and moaned that he wasn't going to any after parties cause of his situation, looked like he wanted to shape the who meet up around him. Honestly at that point if I had met him in public I would be tempted to drown him in a Penn Station toilet after knocking him around. Honestly does this guy knows what's coming out of his mouth or is he that aspie that he doesn't?! So then when I resigned he then not ask or said please but just told me to hand over the email account I made so he can take over. I didn't reply and held onto the account outta spite.

3. Change of plans. Since I only had two people and one of which being the charming DC I decided to cancel out when they announced the pre party in Brooklyn with Hachiouji P. I said fuck it, closed up shop and rented a hostel for 2 nights.

So that's about it, I HAD set one up but due to the reasons I mentioned I cancelled it. Now I gotta get my ass to work.

Kinda going through some personal shit right now but fuck it, booked me a room at a hostel 4 blocks away from the Hammerstein Ballroom for Friday til Sunday for $151 so I can party the night away at the pre-show party with Hachiouji P and got my VIP ticket ready for the night show. Don't need to drag my butt back to NJ and I can party stupid with other Anons if something comes up. One more month...

Hey >>14930096 here. I'm doing the night show so I can only help guide people doing the same shows because the afternoon show goers will have time to do things after the show while the night people pretty much can hang in one of two neighboring diners afterwards. That's why I'm planning to guide people on the Friday before (planning to take that day off) the concert so people can actually enjoy being in the city without feeling rushed.

Here is my email if anyone is interested in joining up: NYC.MikuExpo2016Guide@gmail.com

AGAIN this is not written in stone, if enough people want to join then I'll most likely go through with it.

Places to eat:

I’ve chose Japanese places since I’m sure it’s something some of you guys don’t really get a chance to eat, well the authentic stuff anyway. NYC is home to a lot of sushi/ramen places as well as izakayas if you are of legal age however they can be rather pricey and too many to list so again I listed places closest to the Hammerstein Ballroom. The two diners I listed at the end are ideal for the people to chill out after the night concert.
