I live in Bellevue (West Nashville), and would also be available on the end (20th or 27th ?) of September. Depending on other, perhaps the 100 Oaks area would be somewhat central to everyone...at least so far.

100 Oaks area sounds just fine to me. That is of course, if everyone else is ok with it.

That's two for 100 Oaks so far... peace

Anyone else interested? Have a different location in mind, if so, please put them on the board.

At some point we should narrow down a time (and the exact place as well once we decide on what area of town), but as a rough draft how about 12 Noon, 2PM, or something else along that line?

I'm cool with that area. 100 Oaks is actually gone now, it will be a wing of Vandys children hospital. There is applebees or rafertys that would probably have some meeting space. Depends on how many we could get together. There is a library on Nolensville that may have a meeting space. I'll check it out and get back.

The 100 Oaks area is still good --so far. Rafferty's, Applebee's, Wendy's is also across the street towards the interstate. There is plenty off Franklin Road as well that isn't too far from the former 100 Oaks mall. Hollywood 27 is there if we decide to see a movie later. Any place we can meet and talk, draft some ideas for the future, and gage interests of those in the group would be great. happy

Hi everyone,

Just curious if anyone noticed the other threads about the meeting this last week? We had planned to meet at the Edmondson Pike Library. Did anyone notice the two new threads?

I used to be so wrapped up in one or two threads, I forgot to check the Nashville section to see other boards. Now, I'm in the habit of checking Nashville for new threads here. On the off chance that some of you never noticed the new threads and didn't realize we had another one...then two...about setting up a meeting, I was looking to see if there is still an interest.

It was suggested that rejection from the other past group(s) may make interested people shy away from new groups. So, is there still any interest in a new group perhaps meeting, starting up new activities, with a clear effort to include anyone???

If so, please post something here.

If possible, please post what type of activities you would like to see the local Star Wars fans do that you would want to participate in. Sure, we may not be able to participate every time, or every event. But what events or activities would you like to see among fellow Star Wars fans.

Is the force with us???

well I randomly checked this board and it looks like some of you are trying to re-organize..good for you. I actually was the last CR, and it is very hard these days to get a fan group going, and I hope you find your way here.
NAD used to be a great, fun place...but things happened and people broke off- it was mainly people taking themselves too seriously, or finding other groups, like the 501st, that they felt more comfortable in.
I am sorry if anyone in the past felt alienated or left out.
A bit of advice- don't force meetings- keep it simple and fun. If only a couple people can show, it's ok! not everyne has to agree all the time. Star Wars does not have to be your only topic- it's ok to post about anything and everything!
I let the ball drop and let the group part out because I felt overwhelmed with trying to organize things, I had a new baby, and just so much going on. I felt like I was holding onto something that was slowly dying anyway. We had a good group, I know fans like you all will be able to organize and bring new life to the area.
FYI, a good meeting place is Boarders downtown, or in Franklin. They have tables, coffee, magazines, books...it makes for a very informal fun place to meet up..
Also it gives a whole range to finding fun SW things to look at while there!
I am in Atlanta now, if anyone wishes to have the old NAD banner packed up and shipped to them, I'll be happy to, it's in my garage somewhere...and I know if Zach pops in now and again, he is a good advisor..check the ATL board, they are very active still, and may be able to give some good advice.
May the Force Be With You .

I do remember seeing may of your posts when I was active a few years ago. Hopefully you enjoy being in Atlanta. I have a few friends in Atlanta. Did you go to Dragon Con this year? I finally got to attend my first convention.

It was pretty fun. I was there on Sunday. Anyone else there on Sunday? Did you dress up? I did not this time. Probably would the next time. I wasn't sure what to expect. Not alot of Star Wars guests on Sunday, mainly Star Trek and others. I was able to talk with a few Babylon 5 actors. I didn't really notice any of the other names.

Jedichick, if you know of anyone still here in Nashville that still wants to meet, please tell them some of us are trying to revive the boards! I'd love to have group meetings here and there. For those of us not into making costumes, the 501st doesn't work. I have yet to receive a username or password from the Rebel Alliance version either...though I don't remember if they have costume requirements or not. However, any 501st or Rebel alliance groups that still like doing plenty of other activities are still welcomed.

Anyone have more ideas, or dates that work better that you still want to meet up???

Hey there,

Any one that is interested in reviving the Nashville meetings/activities, we have a small group attempting to plan another meeting. Of course, the more that want to be involved, the better.

Plans are in discussion here: Meeting space needed

Please feel free to add your thoughts and suggestions for this meeting (perhaps March 7th) or future activities. So anyone interested in being part of the group, stop by the thread and post your thoughts. Long-time FanForce members and newbies welcomed.

Thought I'd stick my head in the door and say "hey." I joined NAD back around January of 02, joined theforce.net/ jedi council forums around 98-99. Haven't been to the site in ages.

I make low budget fan films in the Nashville/Murfreesboro area. (if you can call $600-$800 low budget) We're finishing up the second Stargate film now with a 3rd and 4th ready to begin soon. Anyone interested in being involved on any level, from acting, being an extra, helping out behind the scenes, drop me a line, we're always looking for new talent. If you know anyone who can do CGI, you'll move to the top of my favorite people list. Our lead CG guy had a fire which destroyed his comp a few months ago, and another artist we found had to back out last week due to work conflicts.

There are a few of us still around. We met about three weeks ago. There are probably more around, but they have all been pretty quite lately.

Depending on our schedules, it could be a lot of fun. What kinds of help are you looking for? I am a web developer, but not too sure what CGI needs you'd have. When do you get together?

I would love to be in one as well, as an extra, or a character (Rebel or Imperial, Jedi or Sith) that maybe doesn't make it through the film. skull
