The hotel in which I am staying had some of the worst internet connectivity I've ever seen...oy. As a result, I've not been able to post on the Con. Thought I'd put some up today.
I have tons of pics (I think) of all kinds of great costumes. I'll get those up and linked soon. Sheri is very interested in the costuming, so we might work on something for next year in the Steampunk line. The Mal Reynolds outift I have looked great, I think, and was possibly the most accurate one I saw while I was there. Not being arrogant, just MO. Some guy did have the replica custom made boots, but they are like $500 online. I don't think I am ever going to get those. :-S
Saw some great bands while I was here. Very cool. Always like being exposed to new tunes and such. More on that later, maybe.
I saw the Firefly panel twice and it was excellent. The cast is very funny, and seem to genuinely appreciate their fans. I got to meet Nathan Fillion, Alan Tudyk, Jewel Statie, and Morena Baccarain. So nice, approachable and will to talk. The lines to see the cast and panels were incredible. HUGE lines. Fans filled the largest auditorium they have and turned people away. Amazing. Apparently, the fan base for Firefly increases every year rather than shirnks. Pretty cool.
Sheri and I have had a great time, and I expect we'll be back next year. She's even said she wants to stay in one of the hotels for the Con (read as: expensive ones) for convenience.
Not a whole lot going on today, so I expect we'll wander over there and just wander today. Maybe make a session, maybe not...eat some dinner and come back to the room to relax.
I am looking forward to next year already. :-)
