about tcc welcome!! in this chapther i will give a little report about the computer crossroad'93 (tcc)... well, i always hate the first page of all chapthers. because i dont know what to fill it with and then if i fill i it will always be with some shitty text that no one will understand... let's start i got on the train i leksand at 8.00 on saturday the 29th. i was not alone as i had my friend NOY with me.he's on amiga. nothing special happend on the train untill the second time we changed train. there we had to wait in an hour. there we saw some dudes that were carring on some amiga's.. and noy asked them if they are going to tcc. they were.. the next 3 hours training didn't take much time as we talked alot... by the way these 3 dudes was friends to HEAT/noice. when we came to the railwaystation in gothenburg at 14.45. i and noy got of the train.. it took a little bit longer time for our friends to get of as they had alot of package. on the station i saw the famous swedish singer lisa nilsson.. the amiga dudes took a taxi and we took the tram.. it took us 40min. to come to the hall. we checked in and eneterd the hall.. gosh!! what a big hall and so many computers.. (as you know the first impression of a thing is always that it's big. then i will be smaller.) i looked for the others in jam but first i found the amiga group tbl. they are from malung so i know them and among them cool mc was sitting. so he showed me where we where sitting.. the jam members that where present were mac(now tabasco),tchad,tjost,zatt,cmc, merlin and me. also black s. where sitting at our place. because he was in jam at that time.. merlin is not a real jam member but he will join soon.. 7 dudes but only 1 computer.. the reason for that was that no one wanted to bring his comy with so tchad and tjost putted toghter the worst computers they had and took them with.. when i arrived the others should go out and draw some graf- fity.. but as i just have arrived i wanted to be familar with the hall.. the first scene dude i meet was hype/lqd i followed him to his computer. there he gave me a lession how a real c128d shall look like and if you have seen his comy the you must admit that it was cool nothing special happend until 23.00 when i meet bizarre. i have searched for him because i knew that he maybe should show up. but no one know if he where there. i and tchad where walking around.. and then we saw a c64 we went in and asked who the man infront of the telly where. and then we saw bizarre... the first thing i said to him was something like hello, i must get my camera!! if you swap with bizarre then you know that he never send out photo's so i didn't want to miss the change of photo him.. at 24.00 the video show with kyd/balle was and i think that the first video was the best the rest was just shit.. in the invitation they had written that the sleeping hall not was on a cold-floor. but it was. i went to sleep at 2.00 on sunday morning. and sleep to 5.00 then i went up and flumade runt... on sunday i just made some interviews and watched the gfx, music(if you can watch music) and at last the demo compo... the results in the compos can you read about in a special chapther... i went home on monday morning at 9.10 and i was very sleepy... some things to reminder about the party. did you see COOL MC?? if you saw meet him then you can be lucky as he was just outside and boozed. what did you like the toilets? no papper and the mirrors where drawed with graf- fity like the walls... how angry PRI where when they didn't play whole his tune??. the GP members that had stolen some flags from the swedish newspaper göte- borgs posten. on the little flag it just where gp. all amiga members with big loudspeakers and cd's. i didn't you get the feeling that the 64 users had just the comy with and nothing more that where special.. the group (?) FRONTNET that had a dj- mixerboard with and playing music.. did they think that they where at a disco?? they played alot of synth which where good. but unfortionally they where not the only one that where playing... you where kinda tired of techno when you went home.. the amiga user that got his amiga 1200 stolen.. poor boy... the amiga(?can't remember) group that had 2 big ballons at there place. the nice cafeteria. that where serving us with food.. not for free.. the fake demo by LIGHT. the demo by FAIRLIGHT.... when they showed on swedish tv from the party... BACCHUS/flt where interviewed othervise i got the feeling that they showed it like we where just playing games.. when tchad where stoped to go into the arcade hall on liseberg.because he didnt have id. and zatt where served drinks at the same place.tchad is 18 and zatt 16. the piccy they showed under the demo compo. just after the booze d. demo. where it standed. it's many thives out in the hall so watch your stuff.. everybody thought that the compo where over... the noice members that where coding in the sleeping hall. was they in need of silence??? the lame demos in the atari demo compo. the one that where playing with a red- laser under the 64 demo compo.. i cant remember anything more to write so i stop.. read the next chapther where the results from tcc is.. /iopop
