The Gothic Manifesto

The Five Year Day Plan

• Thursday
  • Unofficial Party of the People (Night Music Event) [Club Czar]
    Before the full might of the masses gathers, we will march to Czar and taste the sweet vodka of the Motherland in all its endless variety, while the uniform electronic beats of our eurotrashian brethren fill the air.
• Friday
  • The Border Patrol - Papers, Please! (Event Registration) [Centro Asturiano]
    Stand and be named, Komrade! Obtain your papers and share drink and harmony with the other right-minded citizens. Know your friends, know your enemies, but most importantly, know who will be throwing a good room party later, da?
  • The Great Stomp Forward (Night Music Event) [Centro Asturiano]
    As into battle, the drums of our music will move us. Come together in energy and komradeship as we move through the night, unseen by those who are unenlightened (and who do not have their papers in good order).
• Saturday
  • Black Market (Vendors' Bazaar, Day 1) [Hyatt Regency Hotel]
    Capitalist Pigs! Trading mere paper for personal property for the glorification of the individual is anathema to our movement! Oh. . . it's really cute, and on sale? Why didn't you say so?!
  • Fallen Komrades^* (Ghost Walk Tour)
    The spirits of the strong who have gone before inspire us, while making the oppressors laugh uneasily in their fear. Learn from them, and bring that wisdom back to the rest of your brothers and sisters!
  • Cake or Death? (Dessert Bar) (Tentative) [Centro Asturiano]
    Partake of the illicit delicacies of the bourgeoisie before heading to the magnificence of the nighttime event. Our komrades at the Centro Asturiano share their sweetest confections in the opulence of the venue's lounge. Decadence has its rewards. (Yes, the Committee assures us, There Will Be Pie.)
  • Opiate of the Masses (Night Music Event) [Centro Asturiano]
    We do not worship the weak and fanciful gods of the unenlightened; we elevate the strong among us, and all of us with them! Dance to the betterment of the movement as those from among our number inspire us to greater feats with their music!
• Sunday
  • Black Market (Vendors' Bazaar, Day 2) [Hyatt Regency Hotel]
    More contraband? This is unacceptable! Any items not on the approved color list will be confiscated, and their owners sent to the gulag in shame.
  • Brother Fidel's Cigar Factory^* (Tour)
    We laugh at the feeble trade embargo imposed on our Cuban brethren as we see first-hand the hard work and craftsmanship that they have become famous for, bringing glory to our movement the world over. Smuggling supplies to those on the outside is not just an honor, but a duty!
  • Fashionistas on the March (Fashion Show) [Centro Asturiano]
    What is a movement without its vanguard? Witness the genius of our creative minds as they display the form and the function that will allow us to march strikingly through the crowds and sway them to our way of thinking rightness!
  • The Capitalist Pigs' Feast (CorpGoth Dinner) [Tampa Bay Brew Company]
    Subversion from within the ranks of the enemy has begun. It is once again time to hold a feast, where we may share strategy and success, and plan for our next conquests! To uplift the small, we will convene at the Tampa Bay Brew Company, well-known for defying the oppression of mass-produced corporate swill with their own handcrafted libations. Salut!
  • Viva la Revolucion! [Centro Asturiano]
    The culmination of our glorious endeavor, the revolucion is upon us! Join together in your finest uniforms, showing the strength and pride the movement has instilled in all of us, as we move forward into the great (and very, very hungover) future!
• Monday
  • Slip quietly back into the unsuspecting world, knowing in your heart that the movement is strong, and that it will carry you through another year.
