'Swingtown' convention? Your input needed!
Okay, so our little show has been yanked by the stodgy Tiffany Network. That doesn’t mean we stop fighting. Along the way a fan came up with an idea. How about a “Swingtown” convention? Not at all to be confused with a swingers party. This would be our way of paying homage to the show we know and love. 70’s themed of course! Maybe even Pigs In A Pickle or some Rosey Perfection Salad. A game of Puzzlerama if you’re up for it? Lots and lots of classic tunes spinning and yes, to cap off the night we can even have a sing-along to “Take It To The Limit.” So far we’ve looked at some options. Banquets seem to be tough for any kind of theme unless you’re willing to fork over a lot of dough.
One of the places that might be decent is a new hotel in Chicago called aLoft. It’s directly linked to O’Hare Airport and rooms are under $200. The decor is IKEA chic meets 1976 modern that could rival Fontaine Beauchamp’s lovely touches on the gorgeous Decker home.

If absolutely anybody wants to join in or suggest anything, say if it’s worth it or not then please go ahead. Love to get your feedback. This IS for the fans. If anything else should come along with it, then that’s a bonus. Nobody is saying exactly if there would be any special guests. It all depends on how far we can take this and make it a reality.

Check out to see what kind of ideas we’ve been toying with!
Now, please before you get all excited remember this is only a consensus. Nothing for sure...yet.
Thanks,
