1. What are you MOST looking forward to at DragonCon (other than seeing your friends :P)?

Just getting away, and seeing everyone else's fantastic costumes in person!

2. What are you LEAST looking forward to/dreading at DragonCon?
The fact that I doubt I'll have any new costumes. This depresses me big time and takes away ( Read more... )

I had never posted my BayCon pictures! I don't even know if I had mentioned BayCon at all. It is a very small convention near San Jose, CA  - it took place Memorial Day weekend. There really is no celebrity programming or appearances. It's just one of those 'room party' types of cons in a hotel. They have a masquerade too, but I didn't go. I ( Read more... )

 This is just a quick post to say I had a fantastic time in Florida going to Disney World and Star Wars Weekends!  I traveled to Florida all the way from California with RL/501st/Fan Force friends Matt and Dale.

Wow, isn't it great that so many people in the audience video tape the show with their camera phones? The digital age is just amazing. Someone found this on you tube. Gosh, I really got it close to Simon's head! No wonder my friend commented after the show "it's a good thing you didn't hit him!"

Oh my gosh, I've been searching the various DD message boards... I think something in me knew  there was more to that random bikini contraption I picked up and threw on stage. I believe it was an inside joke and my friend was probably right in saying she thought it looked like a home made garment (it was so dark in the show, I could only make out ( Read more... )

You'd think a single Duran Duran concert should be enough for me? No way - I'm a "Duranie"! So, for my birthday I drove out to Las Vegas to see the band at "The Joint" in the Hard Rock Hotel.
This is a fantastic place to see a show because it is a very small standing room only venue. I'd originally planned to only see the band on Saturday night ( Read more... )

Well, some of you know I had a 1 in 5 chance of winning back stage passes to meet Duran Duran yesterday through a local radio station (I was the magical ninth caller when they played DD on the radio the other day). However, I wasn't the lucky grand prize winner after all. That's OK I guess. I still had an extra set of tickets I was able to give to ( Read more... )
