Jason @ Comicpalooza in Houston - 3/27/2010

[Lilly]

No, Carol, you're not missing anything. There is NO information at all. The only thing I was able to find out is that the guests are expected to be spending most of the day signing. No word on exact times, or prices.

ETA: Lucky beat me to it.

I'm excited for all of you that are attending!

Take lots of pics and hopefully you'll have some good news to share about what Jason has going on career-wise.

I can't believe they don't have a schedule up yet. Grrr. I leave New York tomorrow night at 8:30 I hope it's up before then.

On a side note one of the things I love about Texas is I can always get Diet Dr. Pepper and steak for dinner.

[AggieVamp]

Interesting...they've changed the heading on Jason's appearance to Saturday-Sunday ONLY. So, he'll be there 2 days...

Geez -- nothing like letting folks know at the last minute!

[cassysj]

Registration opens in one minute and the schedule was still not up.

[Lilly]

I don't think there's going to be anything online at this point. Unfortunately, this thing seems pretty poorly organized -- I think you'll just have to see what's going on when you get there. The organizers seem to have abandoned the discussion forum, but I'm going to post a question to see if one of the attendees might be able to get some info today.

[cassysj]

I never even noticed the forum. I hate flying blind.

Mini rant on poor convention planning coming up.

One time a few years ago I went to a convention in London that was an absolute nightmare. They gave my seat away to a giant doll. (I know anyone who knows me the irony is inescapable.) Someone had a giant doll made of one of the actors and it was in the seat next to them. The convention staff told me they couldn't help me or give me another seat since they were all taken and the doll couldn't be moved to the aisle because of a safety hazard if I recall. This place still used developed film not digital and two of my pictures with actors disappeared. One they said didn't come out and the other got lost in the mail.

Jet Blue had trouble finding my reservation this morning so I'm grumpy.

[Lilly]

Aww, Carol. That's stinks all around.

Hopefully, the folks at Comicpalooza are putting all of their efforts into setting up the event itself rather than maintaining the website. Still, I would be a bit nervous not knowing what's going on. Will you have a computer with you tonight?

[cassysj]

I will be home until about 5P and my computer will be with me this weekend. I just hate flying somewhere without knowing the plan. That London trip, I arrived in England 6A and to the convention 10A. They already had people on line for photos with my ticket number and I had to run like a lunatic.

[cassysj]

Well Bruce Campbell has his schedule on his website but nothing new from Comicpalooza

[Lilly]

Well, at least someone is thinking of the fans.

[moonlight_vixen]

Well, at least someone is thinking of the fans.

You got that right.... It seems like the organizers of this event aren't, though

[wondergirl9847]

UGH! I am frustrated for everyone going to this. There's nothing more sucky than going to some convention or whatever and there being no plan or organization.

[Lilly]

A bit of news from Twitter: According to someone who is there with Francis Capra, Francis will start signing autographs at 11am tomorrow and Jason will start at noon. From a separate tweet, Peter Mayhew will start at 10am.

That's all I've got right now.
