Personal Thank You

Hi everyone

I just wanted to say to the bottom of my heart a huge thank you to everyone who came down to Neko Nation.

My motivation to create this event was basically having seen similar events around the world and thinking to myself for years, when is somebody else going to put an event on like this?  Having been involved with event promoting in the past, running my own business and having got the funds to put an event like this on, I said that if nobody else was going to do it then I would.

I was hoping there would be other like minded people and in the end there were on the night, what seriously made my night wasn't the number of people there or how much money we made, it was literally going around seeing the smiles on people's faces and all the fun you were having.  I do mean this because I could have easily made lots of money with some boring RnB event instead but I have no motivation to do so.  However, enough money was made so we can put on another event.

There are so many amazing highlights for me but things such as seeing everyone Caramelldansen or the Still Alive sing along at the end made me very emotional and it's moments like this that I will personally hold onto for the rest of my life.

It wasn't all my show, a lot of people were involved and were a massive help, Cassius, Matthew and Giddy with their DJing, Wednesday and Madman or the camera and video camera respectively, Milleh and Ryan on the door plus our wonderful catgirls Kae and Saccharine.

There is a huge special thanks to Saccharine, for giving me lots of advice to get this event going and this event would have never started if it wasn't for her.  She personally chose to flew all the way from Adelaide from her own personal expenses just to help out and visit this event and she has lots of amazing memories from everyone she met on the night.  She is now my new business partner and is putting on Neko Nation in Adelaide and she's really, really pretty to look at.  XD

It's thanks to people like you events like this can exist, there's a lot of love, time and effort that goes into putting on an event like this and we are so glad there are other like minded people who are willing to support this sort of thing as we truly enjoy putting on these events.  Your support keeps us going and motivated to put more events on and make them bigger and better, there's a fair few things we're working on in terms of improving next time for our Perth show and if you're in Adelaide it's going to be hell of a show, hell it's worth flying over for!

I say all this looking back on all the photos and videos of the event, revisiting all the memories, it was something special which I hope you all enjoyed and I seriously can not wait to do this again (and again and again)!
