Church of the SubGenius X-Day 2021

After the success of last year's virtual event, we knew we wanted to preserve X-Day and keep it from fading away forever. That is why Doktor Faux (me) has employed the skills of several of the Journeymans™ from Hypercube Labs, including former partner and step-uncle-in-training Fidd Chewley and his Supersphere Media Empire to create a production environment for this year's X-Day Livestream.

We have been miraculously granted the use of the Land of ID, a clothing-optional campground in Land of Lakes, Florida. run by SubGenius member XZanthia Octoshroom. We have scheduled the event as July 2 at 3pm to July 5th 7 AM - THATS IT. Now on to what is happening:

WHAT IS HAPPENING?

X-Day. X-Day is happening.

CAN I COME OUT AND SEE MY FAVORITE SUBG'S IN PERSON AND JAM OUT?

As of now, we have reached an agreement with Id  that we will scale our attendance based on vaccinations for Covid-19 and the prevalence of the virus this summer..AT THIS TIME, ATTENEDANCE IS CAPPED AT FIFTY PEOPLE

We are hoping to increase this number come March/April to up to 100,

Space is limited, so we are looking for people who want to PERFORM on the Dobbscord Stage over the weekend to be LIVESTREAMED to SGTV so SubGeniuses around the world can participate.

DO I HAVE TO COME TO FLORIDA IF I WANT TO BE ON THE LIVESTREAM?

NO! By any means, you can RANT and SLACK from the comfort of your own home and you can request time on the sacred CALENDAR to bust in with your own short films, rants, doktor music sessions, WHATEVER. The benefit of being in Florida is that's where the show is being put on.

WHAT IS THE LAND OF ID?

Xzanthia Octoshroom (and her really cool DAD, Hyker) have built an amazing compound in Land o Lakes, Florida known as the Riverboat Club and now the Land of Id. The grounds themselves are incredible, covered with permanent art installations crafted by Hyker and Xzanthia including vintage and mutant automobiles, a meditation sphere, a large STONE CIRCLE (???) campground a museum featuring two world-record holding collections and filled with movie and film making memorabilia. All wonderful things to taunt SubGeniuses with, all safely behind glass walls. THEY EVEN HAD PYLONS! It's a clothing optional campground, and it's currently undergoing changes to be more accommodating for events like X-Day, which makes me chuckle and laugh.

AND IT'S ALL FREE?!?!?!?!?

No. But it is super-affordable!

Camping, per tent, is $22.00 per night. The live event is three-nights, with a setup day before making this a four night event for those participating. That's under $100 per tent, and the sites have electricity, bathrooms (running water), showers (whatever) adjacent to the sites. Currently, there is no limit on tent size and taxes are included in the price.

The day pass is $22.00 per person, this will grant you access to amenities including the pool, stage area, hot tub, fire pit, clubhouse (microwaves, pool tables) and wifi is included (although Fidd and I used our phones on data the whole time and had no issues).

For four days, that's $88 per person. Then the world ends.

The land of Id will continue to run as an intergalactic loveship destination in space after X-Day, If you decide to stay those fees will occur.

What about tickets?Because this event is not open to the public, and space is limited we are not chargingan admission fee to SubGeniuses that are coming to perform.

If the situation prevails,we would open more spaces for attendees that start at $20-35. Those funds would go to recoup the massive losses this event is destined to take on. Yet we still are doing it, our mission lies ahead for "Bob". Also, it will pay for DokFaux's Mondo Burger Eat-The-Hell-A-Thon.

Where can I see all of this going on while it's happening?The current plan is to livestream the event in Dobbscord, with a simulcast of events running on FreeThinkRadio.com. We attempted to do a YouTube livestream last year and it was clear we lacked what we needed for that. By getting together this year, we're FIXING IT. Currently, we plan to use www.subgeniuses.com/livestream where everyone can watch for free. However, there are talks of a pay-per-view system that may allow us extra functionality, we will unveil more as the lab uncovers the data.

Okay, I'm sold. That sounds cool, it's super affordable and it's with the SubGeniuses I love so much! How do I register?

If you're ready to COMMIT, then you need to e-mail me directly at [email protected]

You do not have to pay up front, but if you get to the site and don't have a nickle to your name there is currently no plan for slack-barter. We are looking at ways to raise funds to sponsor the trips of several SubGeniuses, and have already started purchasing plane tickets for several, and setting accommodations for others.

THERE ARE CURRENTLY TWENTY-FIVE SLOTS AVAILABLE

Please, if you say you're going to come then do your damndest to keep to that because if you don't show up then someone who WANTED to is going to miss out. As the date approaches, I will announce if more spots open up.

Guest of Honor:Rev. Ivan Stang

• Rev. Stang’s appearance is contingent of the availability of a COVID-19 vaccine and travel restrictions or advisories at the time. We’re just saying “he’s probably coming.”

We have invited several members of the church and are awaiting to see how the pandemic plays out. We know this isn’t going to be the usual kind of X-day, but it’s going to be a lot of fun DOING IT and providing an event everyone can join in from around the world.
