Big thanks from Out of Bounds

Hey guys,

I'm super exhausted and won't be able to adequately thank all of you in this meager post for making Out of Bounds this year our best one yet. We couldn't have done it without this totally amazing community of people. You're all awesome.

Thank you, Shannon! And thank you to all the producers and volunteers that made OoB happen. I saw some great shows and met (and re-met) some amazing performers.

Can the AIC sleep now?

The AIC never sleeps!

Thanks Shannon! Thanks to everyone who produced, played and performed! I had a great time and am looking forward to next year!

What they said. Great shows to watch and play in, lots of fun hanging out every night seeing old friends and making new ones, and pushing through to the super sweetness despite lack of sleep. Well done, all around, well done.

Looking forward to next year already, and westward.

Big Ups to all the Producers, Staff, Volunteers, and Performers at OoB.

I had a great time for the whole 7 day marathon.

So many new exciting things and lots of old classic awesome stuff.

Improv wins! Yay!

Thanks to everyone who pitched in and helped me keep OoB hospitable.

This is only my third Out of Bounds, but it feels like the strongest one yet on a number of different levels.

As always, OoB made me very happy I get to do improv in Austin and very proud of the community here.

These are a few of my favorite things (about Out of Bounds 2008)

Also, I had at least two conversations with out-of-towners who are now contemplating a move to Austin.

Thassss right.

thanks to Shannon, Jeremy and Mike for making such a beautiful festival, to the entire staff and volunteers (especially Matt and the folks working box office!). i can't say it was the best week ever, what with the theft and all...but it was definitely pretty damn awesome.

and thanks to Jeremy for asking me to jump into a couple of shows...i love watching prov, but i love doing it even more.

and the chance to play with Dan O'Connor...well, i'm sure i seemed like a stammering idiot because i was so nervous (as opposed to the usual reason, which is just that i'm a stammering idiot).

met cool new friends, hung out with cool old friends, drank, laughed, provved, and loved. that's how the OoB train rolls. as it now says on the dry erase board at Moonbase One (or at least did on Saturday night), "Out of Bounds is a nirvana sandwich wrapped in sex. Blam."
