Hey Shambhala-goers! Some tune-age for the long drive to Salmo next week!  Tripnotic isn't just a kickass DJ but he's also married to a hooper. :)

Tish, you're the bride so as far as I'm concerned you can make the rules.  Nothing's set yet.

However... don't you think you'll be busy enough on Friday and not need more commitments?  We can hoop wherever and whenever all weekend but if we try and get people together for a group event then we have a chance at a good turnout.  If we do it on Saturday instead it'll give us an extra day to spread the word and more people will be around and not stuck waiting at the gate.  Also, Pagoda opens on Friday to a 2 hour session by a flutist, which is not exactly my go-to hooping playlist (it might be for others).

How about this - we get people to show up at 4:30 or 5:00 at Pagoda.  That way you can still see Adam Shaikh plays 3:30-5:00 at the Beach stage.  Dekker opens the Pagoda from 4-5 and then Bassmint from 5-6.  Plus you can use the hoop jam to round up hoopers for subsequent hoop attacks.

This is all kinda dorky I know but it'll be fun.  We can advertise here, on facebook and on the Shamb forums.

Hey Jeff have we picked an official time and day for the massive hoop jam? We could plan a few *hoop attacks* lol where we take over the dance floor at different stages kinda like a Hoop Flash Mob ;) Like have one planned every day!!! I know I'm getting married at shamb on Friday but we could have a hoop flash mob sometime before or after the ceremony and pictures ;) Lets look at the DJ lineup and pick times :D... I know last year the Fractal had a hoop-a-thon during the Funk Jam on Sunday (Rich LOVES hoopers he hoops a bit too) So maybe have a hoop jam Thursday at the Rock Pit, Friday ???, Saturday Hoop Jam at the Beach stage (after Amanda & I's Fractal Hoop Dance workshop from 2-4pm) during Adham Shaihk's set (totally going to go rug ripping on his Indian rug on the dance floor AND he might make another music video so you never know ;), and Sunday Funk Hoop Jam at the Fractal... what if we pack the Pagoda on Friday at the opening? My wedding doesn't start till after 3pm some time when Sobey (the Rights of Passage ceremony coordinator) is done volunteering at the S actuary :)

That plan sounds great Jeff :)

I like the idea of the doing it at Pagoda too, just for space considerations, and Electro funk would be pretty awesome.

I'm sure it'll happen on an ad hoc basis, but I think it'd be fun to get as many hoopers together as possible, and so nobody has to worry about teaching beginners.  Shambs is the biggest hoop convergence I've been to and I for one would like to see what 50 hoopers jammin out looks like. :)  Plus all us hoopers could meet.  We could create a facebook event or hand out little invite cards and/or clear it with the festival organizers. 

How about after Amanda and Letisha's workshop?  4 on Saturday?  If you guys aren't suffering from sun stroke by then :)

Pagoda would be the best, IMO.  Plus the stage will just be starting up so the dance floor will be empty... PLUS! Tony Dekker will be playing Electro Funk, which is Awesome.

Labyrinth would be okay too.  Adam Shaikh will be playing at the beach stage (Living Room) at that time.
