Joystiq LA reader meetup with Engadget tomorrow night

LA-area readers! We know you've been asking us for years to do a reader meetup in your humble little town of, what, five, maybe ten million? Well, we didn't quite have enough time to put together a full on Engadget event of our own, but our bestest buds at Joystiq are doing a little something and Peter and myself will be on hand to chum it up with LA-area gadget and game geeks. We can't guarantee the usual free booze + tshirts + gadget giveaways, but we can guarantee a good old fashioned geek-out at to Mahalo HQ in Santa Monica. So leave us a comment if you think you'll be able to come on out tomorrow!

When: 6PM-9PM on Friday 13th
Where: Mahalo HQ, 902 Colorado Ave. Santa Monica 90401 (Google Maps link)

And yes, this event is all ages!

So what will be happening at this event?

[Homeboy @ Jul 12th 2007 1:46PM]

iPhone vs N95 flame wars.
360 ring of death talks.
begging Engadget editors for a how-to-make a "free energy" machine.
how Sony fooled us with the computer rendered Kill Zone 2 trailer they release a few years ago.

[August Young @ Jul 12th 2007 1:37PM]

OMG I would love to have gone but I have to take pictures of this event!
Heavens to mergatroid!

[michael @ Jul 12th 2007 1:37PM]

come to Indianapolis!

[Erik @ Jul 12th 2007 1:44PM]

I'm in Arcadia but I don't have a car! DAMN!

[Eric Gillingham @ Jul 12th 2007 3:19PM]

I may or may not be going, and am in Temple City, perhaps I could give you a ride. E-mail Eric DOT J DOT Gillingham AT jpl DOT nasa DOT gov

[Bruce @ Jul 12th 2007 1:46PM]

BOO!!!! Why Cali? DO ONE IN NYC!!! :-D

[michael gross @ Jul 12th 2007 1:50PM]

I mean, yeah, I guess. It's sorta on my way home from work. Why is it at an office, and not at a bar/restaurant-ish thinggy with happy hour offerings?

[Josh @ Jul 12th 2007 1:57PM]

Because it's an all-ages event, as they said.

[TrueDis @ Jul 12th 2007 2:08PM]

I live right around the corner. Perhaps I'll come...

[Phil Pham @ Jul 12th 2007 2:17PM]

Wut Wut.. I'll be there.

[visionep @ Jul 12th 2007 2:43PM]

I knew that some day there would be an advantage to living in LA as opposed to other more well planned, friendlier environments. And finally I've hit pay dirt!

I'll see if I can talk my wife into dropping by and geeking out.

[Glazun @ Jul 12th 2007 2:56PM]

Come to Ireland... we need gadgets.

[Joe @ Jul 12th 2007 3:15PM]

Will there be punch and Pie?

[lakiolen @ Jul 12th 2007 3:19PM]

I'll try to come.

[Brien @ Jul 12th 2007 3:24PM]

OC isn't too far, I'll have to stop by.

[james @ Jul 12th 2007 3:24PM]

I'll be there :)

[Mike @ Jul 12th 2007 3:43PM]

Swingers (the restaurant) is right down the street! We can get drunk Andy Warhol style.

[Jim @ Jul 12th 2007 3:49PM]

Sure I'll be there... if for no reason other than to see the Mahalo workspace :-)

[Homer @ Jul 12th 2007 4:14PM]

When will the next NY meetup happen?

[Ziad @ Jul 12th 2007 4:32PM]

Funny, I live just a couple blocks up.

[Kianoosh @ Jul 12th 2007 4:34PM]

I guess I'll show up, only if you give away stuff. =)

[Warren @ Jul 12th 2007 4:46PM]

Do an event in Phoenix! You can test how long it takes any gadget to melt in the sweltering heat!

[Xolotl @ Jul 12th 2007 5:06PM]

I'll be attending with a couple of friends.

[CAM1982 @ Jul 12th 2007 5:13PM]

I work at the LAX area, I'll be there just let me know where.

[siv_art @ Jul 12th 2007 6:10PM]

Oh, that'd be sweet! Curtiss and Travis from Boy Cow Radio would totally attend, but one of us doesn't get out of work until 6pm, and with ruch hour it'd be 7:30 or 8pm before we even got there! Next time do it in the Valley! Free parking! :-)

[Paul @ Jul 12th 2007 6:41PM]

I might stop by for some free food and drinks.

[CPak @ Jul 12th 2007 7:00PM]

I think I'll drop by.

[shane @ Jul 12th 2007 8:26PM]

I'm there!

[owbert @ Jul 12th 2007 8:38PM]

more of a heads-up next time would be appreciated. i apologize, i am just sore about how i will be out of town tmw.

[scot @ Jul 13th 2007 12:45AM]

sweet -- i live down the block.

[Carlos @ Jul 13th 2007 1:30AM]

Awesome... I literally live 2 minutes from there. I'll be there with 2 or 3 friends.

[Jhonny Macias @ Jul 13th 2007 1:41AM]

I will try to go and be there ontime if I don't get stuck in traffic coming from Pomona,CA.

[P @ Jul 13th 2007 10:37AM]

Sounds geek-good to me.

[Christian Crowe @ Jul 13th 2007 9:25PM]

I might just have to drive up for it. I live on the borders of Los Angeles county and Orange county, but it could be cool.
