I spent about 3 hours in the party area, which is about 2:30 more than I'd spent at one time at Glowfest. Somehow, with '80's music inside Flynn's, and techno out front, I felt more comfortable grooving on the cute boys.

Flynn's is a very cool re-creation of the set from the original movie, complete with 25 cent Flynn's Arcade branded tokens. The best, cheapest souvenir I've ever gotten from Disney. The "spoiler reel," boy, do you have a gift for expectation reduction, is about a 10 minute presentation which uses the lighting and fan effects from the Muppet Theatre. EVERY TRAILER IN EVERY THEATRE SHOULD BE DONE THIS WAY. I loved it. The audience loved it. I loved the audience, and they loved me. I'd like to think. Hot, hot, Tron boy dancers, Laserman, a far-superior-to-Glowfest light show, 6 year-olds and booze, and horribly confused families trying to get to and from Monster's Inc. because they were booted out of DL for the Halloween party. What's not to love? I know you know how I felt about Glowfest, so I assume you'll dismiss what I have to say about elecTRONica, but give it a shot. Remember that a lot of the Glowfest body count was due to the fact that it was summer break, and try to hit elecTRONica on a non-school night. If nothing else, the geekboy attendance level is much higher for this one. FLYNN LIVES!

I wish I knew you guys all more. I ran into someone who dances with LindyHop. We played a game of air hockey. He kicked my butt. But it was fun.

I only hope it isn't as crowded all of the time. I am considering going back this Friday as my sons AP expires the 24th {only good the Fridays}. Not sure, though. He does have school......

I do not even know how much money we spent on tokens. My son can last a long time on the games he is good at but the rest were all games we are used to NOT having to spend tokens on. :0)
