A Touhou Convention in the States?

Good or bad idea?

I know I'd definitely go~

Talk about what would happen there, if you'd go, where it would be etc. etc.

Not sure how possible it is to start up a purely touhou convention.

Everything just seems to converge on other large convention.

Starting up a Touhou  booth would be more realistic.

^ this

having a whole Touhou convention is unlikely, but I'd love to go if it ever happened (even though if it did happen it would probably be based in the US or something so i wouldn't be able to make it anyway)

Maybe a booth at next year's Anime Expo would be cool.  I went to the one in California and I remember seeing some doujin games there.  Having a Touhou booth doesn't seem that far fetched.

This would be great. I'd be happy with just an informal meeting between Touhou fans/cosplayers, but a full booth would be nice, too.

I want there to be more Touhou fans than just me and tripfriend Okuu in Colorado T_T

Or at least I would have liked it if people had stopped coming up to me at Nan Desu Kan and asked me "what anime is this?"

Hmmm, GPop wants a Touhou booth in Anime North, huh.
This means you are a Canadian no?

But we did have a meetup of like six people there at the shooter-game gallery.

I guess we could shoot for more time together or meeting up somewhere for whatever next time, or at least have some regular communication going on...
There was something here once. Wonder what...

True, but not only that, I want more Touhou regulars to meet up there that we may have never heard of. Also, it would be cool to let more people become aware of the series outside of Youtube videos, Stepmania files, or memes.
