the $15 went towards running the event but most of the proceeds went to scare for the cure, a breast cancer non-profit organization…so the even indeed wasn’t overshadowed. it made it even more awesome.

I spent weeks learning the Thriller dance at my gym. I mainly did it for the aerobic exercise benefit. However, I *DID* have plans to attend the 2009 Thrillerfest event and help Austin break the world record. When I discovered that Alamo had taken it over and was going to charge $15 per person, I knew there would be many who would have otherwise gone but would not attend because of the money. We’re in a recession because of greed and so Alamo basically usurped the event and let its greed kill any chance that Austin had to set any kind of record. The purpose of the event was overshadowed just so someone could make a buck. What about those that just wanted to dance but had no interest in a Michael Jackson Sing-Along?

Not sure you have the time correct for this event. The web site for Thrill the World says that the Houston dance must start at 7:30 pm. Austin must be the same.
(see http://www.thrilltheworld.com/events/info/thrill_the_world_2009)

Do you also have info re: registration time, final practice time, etc? I can’t find anything else about it on the web, the gacebook page says “more info soon”, and the official Austin web site has been spammed. It would be great if you could be our info source on this one!
