7 Deadly Sinners, it gives me great pleasure to officially announce and introduce you to our con hotel –

Downtown L.A.’s “The Standard” (http://www.standardhotels.com/los-angeles/)

The following room rates will be available to those who mention “Rocky Horror”:

Medium Rooms – $135, usually $245
Large Rooms – $150 , usually $265
X-Large Rooms – $175, usually $285 (ONLY 10 in Hotel)

Humongous Rooms: $250, usually $400 (ONLY 14 in Hotel)
WOW Suites: $350, usually $525 (ONLY 21 in Hotel)

The kind of rates we got are absolutely unheard of in Downtown Los Angeles!

This is a 207 room hotel, and we’ve only blocked 125 rooms to be on the safe side, so BOOK AS SOON AS YOU READ THIS!!!

We chose this hotel for a number of reasons, and one was that we were confident that we could book out most of, if not the entire, place. This is Rocky Horror’s hotel. You definitely want to be here, as it’s conveniently located four blocks from our performance venue, and some events will take place here.

For individual reservations, please call 213-892-8080 or 866-670-8686 and reference “Rocky Horror”. All reservations should be received by the hotel no later than Wednesday, September 1, 2010 in order to get the above discounted rates.

The Standard is one of the most beautiful, chic, and nightlife-oriented hotels in Los Angeles. More important than all the amazing aesthetics is the fact that it has an incredible staff that will treat us with respect and is delighted to have us.

Tired of being on the other side of the hotel from your Rocky friends? That won’t happen here! We have several entire floors blocked for Rocky in the lower to middle levels of the hotel! On the 5th floor there’s a central meeting room called “The Blonde Room” which fits about 60 people- that’s ours all night after hours, and the entire 2 floors surrounding it are too!

They will even allow us some measure of control over who is placed where depending on the room type you reserve. When you register for the con, simply click the check-box about whether you prefer a quieter room or don’t mind a louder area, and we’ll print those lists off and cross reference with the hotel staff and try to accommodate you as best we can.

Have you ever had a problem with gruff hotel security at past cons? Well, check this out: Sins will have several “Event Staff” on duty on each of the main Rocky floors from 11pm-5am who will be available to help guide you, our guests, and who will act as liaisons to hotel security. We’ll be given a chance to police ourselves before big bad Bubba comes along to spoil our fun. Sins will also help the hotel come up with a brief that will be given to all staff for training purposes — they will know what to expect from us. This abundance of open, honest, and candid communication will allow for better understanding and a better experience for you, our unconventional conventionists! (Sorry — had to do it!)

Amenities
In your rooms you’ll find complimentary wireless internet, glass encased walk-in showers, iHome iPod docs, and where their website says “interesting mini-bar.” that means condoms are included. Did we find the right place or what? There’s even an on-site 24-7 diner.

I could go on and on and on about the amazing things this hotel has to offer. It’s best you just click on the link above and check it out…if you can make it past the amazing main-page slide show!

Friends, we are so very pleased to have found such a fun place we know you will enjoy. Every good con starts and ends at a good hotel, and we’re confident that we’ve picked a real winner here for you guys. Can’t wait to see you all in September!!!

So, we know there are a whole bunch of you guys out there interested in keeping tabs on this Con. You also have different methods of doing so. Some of you Tweet it up all day and night from your phone, some compulsively refresh LiveJournal and Facebook every 5 minutes, and some of you just check your MySpace every now and then.

Some of you are even so stubborn that you refuse to do that!

Well, fear not, we’ve got something for ALL of you
