Pittsburgh, PA Jedicon WV 2009 ROADTRIP PLANNING THREAD

October 10, 2009.

Road Trip!!!! Who's interested in going?

EDIT: It looks like Neil and I are going. I am definetly going since I'm doing a 3 PM Panel. It will just be a day trip, down and back again. If you are interested in going, please post in this thread. More details on meeting up and transport, soon.

 

I'll be there, lol. I'm also sending an opening invitation for everyone... hot dogs and hamburgers at my house after the show! I live just up the hill from the museum so it's not far. Hope to see everyone there! Maybe you guys can have your October meeting at my place?

 

So, anyone interested in going?

 

I would, but this year the convention schedule is all mixed up. Because Pittsburgh was delayed, they pushed back Baltimore, and that's the same weekend as Jedicon.

 

I added some more updates to our website.

Christine, I added you as one of our discussion panels, too. I do have a laptop and screen if you need one. It's going to be a great time guys, hope to see everyone there!

 

I will need a screen and one of those projector things, since there is a power point that goes along with the presentation.

 

Christine, what's your panel on?

 

"Tragedy of Star Wars" How the prequel trilogy is a modern example of classical Greek Tragedy.

Here's the written copy of it, at www.sagajournal.com

 

That's pretty awesome, Christine! Can't wait to sit in. Your panel is at 3:00 I believe.

We have flyers out, flyers on Domino's Pizza boxes in a three county area and an article in the local paper in the works so traffic should be good.

Hope to see everyone there!

Cheers!

 

Just a friendly bump for tomorrow. The weather will probably look like Komino but inside will be full of fun! All I know is the show is tomorrow, then Sunday I hop in my X-Wing and fly to Key West for 4 days of piano bars and drink blue milk!

 

It ended up being me, my mom, and the newest member of SFAP, Bookworm 70. It was a fun trip. I ended up doing two panels, Tragedy of SW and Planning Your Sci Fi Vacation. Neil's artwork from last year was still on the blackboards!

I also chatted with John Booth (no, not John W. Booth) who wrote a book called Collect All 21! Memoirs of a Star Wars Geek. He's going to do a panel for us at April's Comicon.
