    Our 1st year was a blast as we had nearly 1000 people enjoy the bands, panels, contests, gaming, films, costuming, etc..... This year will be even better as we bring back everything that worked, revamp or replace the things that didn't, and add even more lunacy! For those that don't know, ConNooga is a convention that covers sci-fi, anime, horror, fantasy, superheroes, and everything in between. Something for everyone! Check out the website for the latest.

    Back this year will be SABER IDOL! Bigger and better than ever. You won't believe the prizes for this year! We'll have preliminary tryouts at various conventions INCLUDING DragonCon as part of the Matters of the Force track. Try out! What have you got to lose?

    You know his artwork from Dragon Magazine, Dungeons & Dragons covers, and DragonLance. The legendary LARRY ELMORE! [image=http://www.larryelmore.com/images/paintings/elmore_p005al.jpg]
    Also appearing with Larry are The Convention Vixens.

    ROBOTECH is coming! Kevin from Robotech.com will be on hand w/ all the latest Robotech info and some informative seminars too! Don't miss the ONLY and first ROBOTECH appearance in Tennessee! Add to this a host of other anime-related panels and events.

    We had a blast having them, and they had a blast playing for us. RADIO CULT is returning to rock out with their high-energy show and awesome covers of the best of the '80's. Rock You Like A Hurricane, baby!

    Plus, we'll have loads of gaming, console gaming (sponsored by GameStop), late-night programming, dealers, panels, contests, artists, authors, and dedicated kids programming. DodgeBall? Oh yes... DodgeBall will be in full effect. Or take part in the Plunder Run. Perhaps the Big Wheel showcase and races. Have you made a film? Have it screened or enter the contest.

    And don't forget the annual Star Wars vs Star Trek debate. I say annual as this will be the 4th year our team has done this. It's been close the first 3 years, but Star Wars easily won last time. Will Trek make a comeback with the new movie coming out?

    We're still lining up a few special guests, so check the website often. Or join our forums! Everything we've done has been the result of suggestions by convention-goers along with people that's never been to a convention. We're all about "outside the box", so if you have an idea, let us know! We'd love to hear from you. www.connooga.com
