Anyone going to go? I will probably be attending this convention, probably not with any of the team though. If anyone else is gonna go, let me know and we'll set up a meeting for a photo op.

Any more information? I see they have a site and I'll look more into Metrocon when I get a chance. Like what day(s) do you think you'll be there? Will you be there with your uniform/gear? Anyone from your staff going with you?

Oh yes, sorry Spengs. Newayz, it goes from June 2nd-5th, 25 dollars for admission. I'll be attending the event in my Ghostbusters gear, probably not with the rest of my team however. MAYBE Julie Madison will accompany me, but only me for sure as of now. Most likely I'll be there Friday and/or Saturday.

Thanks for answering my questions, giving us a little more information. We'll add this news and update our events area when we get a chance.

Seems that weekend is quite busy as far as conventions go!

Hey guys, we just returned from the convention. We actually went yesterday, but didnt feel like driving back that night (mostly I didnt wanna drive cause I was tired and NOBODY drives the Ecto-2 except me) But yeah, it was an absolute blast except for one...small...thing... While there, some kid dressed like Kiba from an anime which's name escapes me, ran into me and BROKE MY CAMERA!!! It was probably one of the most sickening things I've ever had to watch happen when it hit the floor... (sigh, shakes head) So unfortunately, no video of this one (until I get the camera fixed, whenever that may be). We did get a few pictures on Julie's digital camera, so I hope to have those as soon as she gets them uploaded. As for Megacon, I thought I informed you guys that at the last minute we werent able to go, sorry for leaving you guys hanging like that. I assure you I'll have plenty of stuff from the next con. (what is the next one, again? lol)

A bit of info from the con that I can supply is that there were quite a large number of voice actors appearing on the panels, one of which was a former member of the Power Rangers show, (I believe he was the 2nd Black ranger).

Also, the production company heading up Resident Evil 3 was there looking to recruit extras for the film. Myself and the team signed up and plan to head up to Sarasota for the filming next spring.
