I know: I’m late. It’s like this….

First, there’s this historically standing rule that, if you’re at the show, you’re probably on the website. Then there’s an additional, subsequent allowance that, if you’re at the show and shouldn’t be, I can avoid uploading shots of you to the site, so long as I hear about it in advance, because, historically, I was the only one getting shots of anything. Then that’s convoluted by everyone on the planet, currently, having at least a phonecam and an account at facebook.com, rendering everything kinda meaningless.

Still, if someone’s not supposed to leave a trail of evidence of having been at the show, I can make an effort personally to limit at least the shots I’d got of him.

So let’s add a complication. My computer puked hard recently. Hard enough in fact that talking to it, reasoning with it, threatening it, and using words like apple at it made no difference; what made a slight difference, if not immediately, was giving up and replacing it. Which gives me a neat new computer running 64Bit Windoze7 on a quadcore somethingorother but, for the immediate future, no access to terabytes of drives and their contents; in a real way, I’m currently limited to whatever percentage of eighty gigs isn’t already lost to the operating system; that doesn’t leave massive oodles of room for Photoshop and LightWave and everything else I expect to use every five minutes for various things.

So now I’ve got a bunch of images from July, some including people who shouldn’t be included, and no good way to spend whatever amount of time editing each image to exclude people who should be excluded.

Somewhere in there, I’ve been slammed with unrelated stuff for the last few days. And there’s kinda no end in sight for all that. So, for the moment at least, I’ve just gone through the images I’d got on Friday, held back the ones containing things you’re not allowed to see, and uploaded the rest. Maybe that’s good enough. If not, I can look into doing things correctly once I’ve got time and space and Photoshop and so on.

Meanwhile, here’s what survived: http://www.denverrockyhorror.com/main/2010/08/03/images20100730.

Of course, that’s just my stuff [some of it kinda sucks, since I was making a realtime effort to exclude people InCam]; somewhere out there, there are other images from other DigiCams which I haven’t seen yet, probably including shots of people we’re not supposed to be including; whenever I see those, if I don’t have to remove people, if I’ve got Photoshop up and running at the time…at some point, those’ll probably be here too. One way or another.

On the bright side, staggering things like this kinda gives the site more of a reason to exist apart from the end of every month; otherwise, while we could have midmonth posts counting down to the next show, that’s about all they’d be as of now. I’ve actually been thinking a bit about expanding the site’s purpose and having more updates than the twelve per year you can currently expect; so far, that’s purely about thinking, so there’s not much more to say about it yet.

Still: stick around. Or at the least hook up with us through facebook.com and twitter.com to hear about updates as they happen.

Finally, though the shows are only occurring monthly at the moment, CEI got round to doing a themenight. And the obvious was everyone’s favourite. So that went reasonably well.

Discovering last month that my new phone, cool though it is, kinda sucks at getting video, I went back to the Mino. That also kinda sucks in minimal lighting, but the quality’s a bit better. Also, I killed my computer and kicked up to 64bit Windoze7 a couple days ago; I’m reinstalling stuff, but I haven’t got the videocompression software into the system yet. So I’m cheating and just throwing this up to YouTube.com. Presuming I’m not violating their rules. Either way, if you’re looking at this on an iPhone, you may need to report yourself to Steve Jobs; no porn allowed, whatever that might constitute.

Started off out front. Since they hate it when we park the car inside:

I got started a little too early with filming. More people showed up later. And we’re back inside, judging the freaks in a costume contest:

I still say we shoulda been able to vote for Sheridan. Damned soviet judges….

I dragged Hunter along [she's the one in the first video, telling me to get my own coffee; also, she's fired] to get a few shots with my DigiCam. Not that she stopped at a few. So those should be here on the site soonish; first, I have to finish uploading this stuff to YouTube.com since, of all the USB ports I coulda used, I jammed the Mino into the one next to the MemoryStick reader, preventing me from using both at the same time. It’ll all get done eventually.

But, enough about that; how you doin’….

Yeah; whatever; don’t care. Call to Action Time.

So, if you look out the right side of the website, you may catch a glimpse of a couple widgets down there. Strangely enough, there are way more people connected to us through facebook.com than through twitter.com. Partly because facebook.com’s more popular [than any other site in the history of ever]; partly because…who knows. So. While you’re here and thinking about it, hit twitter.com/DenverRHPS and start following us for occasional updates. Having done that, mention us on FollowFriday, or in fact any other day of the week. Spread also the word about facebook.com/DenverRockyHorror far and wide; let’s see how many people we can pick up from Indonesia next month.

Seriously. Because how cool would it be to get a measurable number of fans and followers for this thing. Maybe we can get Utah to declare a civil war against us. Like, more officially.

Right. So. You go do that; I’ll finish uploading everything; see you next month, on the thirtieth….
