I'll try to keep this short. Went to Dragon*Con this past weekend as part of Technical Operations. Was put in charge of a new larger ballroom at the Westin (new hotel). Filled it with zombies and steampunks and a couple zombie steampunks, plus Stargate Universe guests that had never been to a convention before. At nights I helped run sound and fight a few fires for bands in the Hyatt. Met with Abney Park, Frenchie and the Punk, Helbinki, Bella Morte, Extraordinary Contraptions (again), League of Steam, cast and crew of Browncoats: Redemtion, and William Shatner. Missed Jefferson Starship though.
Had a really great time, but by the end of load-out yesterday I was completely worn out and exhausted. Driving home in tornados and a tropical storm/depression didn't help either.
