Editing C15 omaha bid (section)

==The People==
Here's some information about your prospective C15 organizers: 

===Party Secretary [[Axel]]===
Is originally from Germany. He helped organize the first [[C8 | Francophone Convergence]], where he learned all about what NOT to do!  He promises to apply this experience (plus all he's learned from hosting pig
roasts, [[Captain Matt's Armada Featuring Axel (where Trevor Writes All The Songs and does all the work) |CMAfA]] gigs<ref>Mainly, don't let Captain Matt near a microphone.</ref>, poetry readings, etc.) to making C15 in Omaha an unforgettable extravaganza.

===Corn Commodore [[Peter H. Coffin]]=== 
has migrated from Boston.  He runs the Hades Data Services, so you can be assured that at least one of his websites will carry an Omahan Convergence website. Also, he has promised to offer both soundbites from C15 bands and online sale of C15 tickets on the alt.gothic website, should we win your votes.  He has the saintly patience, iron will, and lack of sanity required to pull off getting Goths to a Corn Festival, attend club events, and a giant net.goth gathering.

===Team Captain [[Eilis]]===
[[Eilis]] is a teachergoth, figure skater, likes mojitos, coordinates Goths on Ice. She chaired the [[C9]] committee and is on the [[C15]] [http://www.altgothic.com/c15longbeach Long Beach] bid committee. She will be organizing the sports related activities in the bid.

=== Cow Tipping Chief [[Ian]] ===
Ian will be organizing a Gothic Cow Tipping extravaganza. Details to follow. As cow tipping is a sport, [[Ian]] will be under [[Eilis]]

===[[naeelah]]===
Coordinator of the Gothic Tractor Pull (providing an ideal runway for the fashion show) and overseeing crop circle formation. 
Another sport, [[naeelah]] will also be working closely with [[Eilis]]

===Lord High Executioner [[User:Siobhan|Siobhan]]===
[[User:Siobhan|Siobhan]] will be killing [[User:Axel|Axel]] if this bid wins.
We plan to make this the highlight of the Sunday night festivities.

===Dr. [[Moonglow Minnow]]===
[[Moonglow Minnow | Maeve]] will be running Cheesecake Lab. She requires many subjects to test her experiments<ref>Cheesecake, naturally. Likely featuring chocolate, coffee &amp; other deliciousness.</ref> on.

===[[Dreaded Dragon]] Marissa===
[[Marissa]] has been vending at [[Convergence]] for several years. She will be coordinating the vendors aspect of the bid.

===[[Jola]]===
[[Jola]] will be coordinating the fashion show component.

===[[Fross]]===
DJ coordinator and after party organizer.

===[[Wookie]]===
Taking care of all your rum related needs.

===[[TenshiKurai9]]===

===[[alt.gothic]]===
The alt.gothic usenet group is home to net celebrities like [[Erithromycin | erith]] (Erith Romycin) and [[Dag]] (Dag).  Our many-talented list members have responded to the nomination of Omaha with great enthusiasm, and will be a dedicated, efficient team for C15. 

===Bands===
Local<ref>Local to ''somewhere'' at least</ref> bands you may expect to see during Omaha's Convergence would include Captain Matt's Armada, featuring Axel (where Trevor Writes All The Songs and does all the work), The Gaunts, and The V-Twins.  Our scene is growing in leaps and bounds, and these three bands have contributed greatly to that growth. 

===Name Dropping===
Name dropping for your vote! - some people who very well may be involved should Convergence come to this beloved city are usenet celebs [[Sexbat]] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Truscott Tom Truscott]<ref>. If I'm going to name drop, I might as well do it properly.</ref>.  Of course, if you're in their town, you can also just catch them walking down the street on their way home from the liquor store... :}
