SPN LA Con 2009 -- Schedule & Guest
SPN LA Con 2009
Schedule, Guest Line-up, Venue, Etc.
Total Guests (including Steve & Jason): 12
They've added Anna to the guest line-up for LA Con 2009. I guess her autograph will have to be purchased separately.
Yay! Two weeks and counting! Two weeks from right now we should be in the convention center awaiting the first guest panel!
And they've posted the first tentative schedule. Highlights of which include a Karaoke Party and confirmation that there WILL be assigned seats for the breakfast (details forthcoming). Whew!.

Thanks for coming, and enjoy the convention! We really appreciate your support. A few minor things to make sure the convention is fun and safe for attendees and our guests:
1) If you have an issue please come see us on site so we can solve it. THANKS!
2) Our volunteers are just that: volunteers. They are great to help us out, but if you have an issue with them, please see us.
3) In the theatre, photographs may only be taken from your seats.
4) No audio or videotaping of stage presentations please. It is contractual in the majority of guest contracts that we make our best efforts to stop videotaping. It is not your choice to think it is okay, it is not, and stated on our website before you purchased your tickets.
5) If you come up for a question, please have a good and interesting question: NO asking for hugs, autographs, telling guests we love them (we all do, that’s why we are here), or gift giving as this is unfair for the rest of the audience and puts the guests in a bad spot. Thanks for understanding that we all want an interesting and fun guest session.
