LATEST GUEST James Marsters

This will be one of James' 1st reel convention for a very very long time the other taking part the week after at Hallowhedon

James will be attending the event at a Sponsored Guest meaning that he will not be apart of the free autos and photo shoots ,that you will be getting as part of the ticket package but you will all be able to buy them at the show.

James will be taking part in lots of activities over the weekend so you will get to see a lot of him

[Rainbow]

that will help to make up for JB not being there so much - now they just need to book Gareth and it will be perfect - more money tho if photos and autos are seperate - thats a bit naughty

James, John, James, John, James, John

Seeing as we already had a Hub 3 thread for TW lovers, I've closed that one down and just brought some basic info to this one:

Pluto and Rainbow, you must be feeling very smug now ;D

I'd really like to take K to this as it's so close to home - and it's the week after her 18th birthday. But I doubt there'll be any tickets left by the time I'm able to get the money together.

Not sure about smug but verry verry happy.

[wrigglerosie]

Im a little bit smug - I heard from a good source in London that it was 99% sure James woukld be going - they were holding off so that the TW people could get in first! - so I bought my ticket straight away - though its still only a standard one.

All I ask is that at some point when James is on stage that I can borrow someones Gold seat for a bit so I can get good photos!

And a photo op chance for a Captain Sandwich!!

[Teebee]

Arrrrrrrgh

Pluto and Rainbow, you must be feeling very smug now ;D

Lol, I'm sure it's icing on the cake for them both eh gels? ;D ;D

[Rainbow]

Abso-bloomin-lutely!

Not sure how that could work Rosie as rows are patrolled and tickets checked just before guests come on. Also, on a purely selfish note I so rarely get to see James that I would be loath to be further back

[PokerKitten]

You're kidding aren't you Rosie?! The vast majority of people there will be TW fans first and foremost who have never seen James at an event. So everyone may well be glued to their seats to experience Captain John for the first time. And the cross-fandom fans aren't likely to give up what they've paid good money for!

On the other hand, a few TW fans weren't all that enamoured of the naughty Captain so may wander off. But if the organisers patrol like Pluto says (and she has experience of them in action) you might have to make full use of your zoooooooom ;D

[DeeDee]

Yay

thanks for the info Salchli and PK ;D

[wrigglerosie]

I think I'll need an even bigger zoom for that!! Not sure I can get anything to add my camera - have to find out!

Wouldnt dream of asking you Pluto or Rainbow - you're James fans - course you want to be up front!! Its the ones like at the Rift who were TW fans and went off to see Gareth whilst James was on stage that Im going to be fluttering my eyelashes at...!

An of course if anyone hears of any silver or gold tickets coming up for sale, let me know!

[PokerKitten]

The difference being that The Rift started out life as a JM event, then slowly evolved into a TW one. Good luck with the eyelash fluttering in the face of the hardcore TWers ;D

Here's a reminder of the other guests announced so far:

John, Nikki Amuka-Bird (Beth in Sleeper), Daniela Denby-Ashe (Tosh's alien gf Mary in GBG), Ben Loyd-Holmes (he's in CoE) and Lara Phillipart (Jasmine in Small Worlds).

I was particularly impressed with them getting Nikki and Daniela as they are both much in demand these days.

[Rainbow]

;D ;D ;D Its sooo exciting! I don't think you'll have any luchk with a gold or silver ticket Rosie - you're not allowed to transfer them and ME are very strict on ID etc. You may just have to resign yourself to stalking James in the corridors and buying masses of photo ops and autographs!

[wrigglerosie]

..so no change there then!! ;D ;D

[Cal]

K and I are now the proud owners of two tickets for this event, so yay!! ;D ;D ;D

This will be the perfect 18th birthday present for her (her birthday is on the 14th). All we need now is for Gareth to be announced to make it even more perfect!

And now I don't have to feel quite so guilty about going to the Hallowhedon event without her! ;D ;D

It's so exciting! Two weekends in a row of seeing some of my favourite people. And that most definitely includes all of you! ;D ;D

[Rainbow]

;D ;D thats great news Cal - really looking forward to see you and K!

[wrigglerosie]

YAY! Cal is going to be there! So glad you can come - never really got a chance to talk to you at Marstersclass - with 2 weekends, we should be able to get together at some point!!
