Damn it sucks being over this side of the world sometimes :(

I'll make it one day!

I'm making plans to go with a group of 8. Hopefully we can get our act together and book a room at the hostel. I'm not really willing to pay so much for a hotel room.

Urge, I was looking at your pictures in the picture thread wondering if they were at fan-con cause they we're all with guest who went in the past few years. I really wanted to go last year in hopes of meeting Gary Gygax but that won't happen now :(

funny thing - i was at a conference with Gygax ... it was a sci-fi writers con .. Terry Brooks was there - and a few others .. i was in the reception room with them but the crowd was so freaking weird (they all looked like earth muffins, or the guy who runs the comic book store in The Simpsons .. that i had to leave.

I was there to see Nash the Slash - who was playing a life soundtrack to the old silent film "The Lost World"

didnt even know it was a convention when i bought the tickets.

Earth Muffins haha Never heard that before. Also, i love The Lost World. I'm a big fan of Conan Doyle.

I'm super excited to go. I want the list of guests *whines*. The unfortunate thing is, all my friends will be there for freaking anime. So I'm going to have to go off and see the comics and Festival of Fear on my own. Maybe drag my boyfriend with me, I'm sure he won't mind as long as I don't attempt to sex Shatner.

That sounds like a lot of fun. Alas, I am too far away. :(

Boston should get its act together and do something similar.

hey if we're lucky - maybe there will be 2 or 3 of us and we can meet up and say hi.

when the time comes we'll figure out a way to make it happen.


are your anime friends getting dressed up ?

(one of the things i do is try to get pics of the dressed up ones while they're eating, slumped against pillars - and generally looking miserable.


i guess i'm a bastard :)

I don't know if they are. I even pondered a costume but it would be awesome and Steampunk. No anime.

I'm all for a meet up.

I'm making plans to attend in 2009...time and money are a slight issue for this year, but I'll be set for next.

How much are tickets usually?
