And here we begin the epic post - BoB Part One...
Hee Fidelity has started playing in the hotel lobby. siobeehan and smokingmlikmaid are queing in the lobby to check out so we're smirking/grinning.
Alright considering I have just under 2hrs of my 24hr internet usage left, I'm going to try and post as much as I can now. I'm living on just under 4 hrs sleep as I type this so yes I love you all very much and this is worth the sleep deprivation! ;) At the moment I'm just going to post about the boys and the con. I'll probably go back and post other stuff later, I'm just not sure when.
So you've been warned, this is long and when/if we get to the boys talks, it is in great detail because the journalist/uni student in me started taking notes during their talks so I wouldn't forget anything.... What can I say, sitting in a hall listening to people speak keys in the instinct to start taking notes in me. Not to mention that this time 2 weeks ago I was still at uni...
Apologies for the incoherencies and typos and errors - Im trying to do this as fast as I can! Bah I need to learn how to use html methinks!
Also sorry if there are bits that dont make sense - I'm just copying from my notes and trying to remmeber. So anyone on my flist that was there and spots anything I can add/edit, comment plz!
Friday night - Opening Ceremony/Meet and Greet.
So when Ryan was introduced and came out he yelled out ''Who loves Dick?!''. We were then introduced to Marshall Allman from Prison Break (so not 24! So looks like he's 12), Then Francis in a suit and sunnies.lol. Jodi Lynn O'Keefe (Taylor Vaughn! - from she's all that) and then Jason. white tee *dies* when afrocurl posts her pics you can drool over them like I was this morning as I was watching her select which ones to upload. Neil Roberts was emceeing. loud and sometimes crude/vulgar he is.
And I'm really bummed I missed Jason rubbing Francis's head with his shirt. Hee. Rub a lamp ;)
So originally they were going to only allow tickets 1-150 do meet and greet with the guests but i guess they changed their mind and allowed everyone. thank god since i was 203. So on our table it was siobeehan, me and motylik20 and some other random people.
Francis came to our table first. He said he only wears suits for funerals, weddings and court appearances so we were special. You could kind of tell it was kind of awkward for him wearing a suit because he had no idea what to do with his jacket. aww Francis.
He said he wont ask for everyone's names at the table coz he would forget but also so it gave him conversation opportunities for later in the weekend. He did say that Jason would probably remember. Me thinks not since 300 people is a lot. lol. So there was a lot of Jason gushing from Francis <3 He said that Jason could direct them all (as in the VM cast) and that if anyone could bring them back all together it would be Jason. Jason will be president according to Francis :D And that he never asks Jason if he's working but what planet he's taken over and that makes me smirk and grin.
Francis loves Kristen. According to siobeehan he said that he loves Kristen to death at least 3 times while on our table. He will be working with KB on Heroes but couldnt tell us much at that point but he is so excited about whats in store for him on the show. its so adorable. It will depend on the fans reactions as to how many eps Francis does. motylik20 said that she;ll start sending letters to which Francis offerred to give her his emaikl later and his PA started shooting him death glares as in ''NO!'' He also said that Kristen is involved in some mysterious project at the moment that is NOT when in rome.
He then started talking about the various projects he has done and rating them in terms of the effort he's put in - its really hard to describe what he means by this. Anyway he said his stint on FNL was 6, VM average of 7 and Heroes 8.5
Francis was very passionate to point out that Weevil;s story was not finished yet.
He found God recently (ok I think I phrased this wrong so its probably going to be interpreted in a completely different way than to the one I intended..) He got baptised on Tuesday before he came out here.
He also talked a bit about his ep of FNL and how there was no script and that was interesting. Thats all I have for Francis for the meet and greet for the moment. But he;s very chatty with a lot to say :)
Next up we had Ryan. Before our table, his table would randomly errupt with cheering (this would be a recurrence throughout the night as well as with Jodi and Francis' table) But he decided to be different with our table and just get us to randomly stand up and clap politely/pompusly like how they do in the golf. So at first he got up and did it except the rest of us were still sitting down and he was like aww guys I thought you were going to stand up with me. So we tried again and everyone started staring at us wondering WTF most likely. lol. So ryan asked where everyone was from and was quite fascinated by the fact that siobeehan, motylik20, and I were all friends from the internet - LJ and FF and today was the first time we had met in person. He was like how'd you guys meet? facebook? and we told him from LJ and FF and he was wow that is so cool. Ooh and at first when he sat down next to siobeehan who i was sitting next to on the other side, he thought my watch was an invisible children bracelet. but i told him that i did hiwever have an IC tee shirt and wasnt sure whether i'd wear it on saturday or sunday but i would definitely wear it that weekend. i also asked him if amy ws here and he said yes. as he was leaving our table he was talking to one oif the guys on our table about guitar heroes - it streamed from the shirt the guy was wearing which was something about metal i think...
next we had neil at our table. he's loud. he asked where everyone was from and yes im crazy for coming all the way over here. he started making fun at the two couples at our table with whether the female will refer her partner as her brother or bf depending on who she's talking to. ie if its jason, the guy is her brother not bf. he spoke a bit about being dubbed in another language and translations and how it often makes him look stupid. he kissed everyone on the cheek before he left, yes that includes all the guys. im pretty sure he did that to everyone in the room.
we then had marshall. it was awkward since siobeehan, motylik20, and i don't watch prison break.i think the 2 other couples on our table did but nonetheless marshall wasnt at our table for very long.
then jason. oh jason. i was just in shock/awe of seeing him in the flesh that I kinda just sat there in shock staring at him the whole time. (shut up. i can feel you mocking me all the way from here) i cant believe how shy/nervous i got! *stupid angela. stupid* no one really said anything to him at first so he kinda didnt sit at our table. just stood. i think that kinda made me nervousness/ shock stupur worse. we became the sports table to jason. he talked about how he managed to catch some soccer thursday on the tv at the hotel. i think he said he goes for chelsea in the premier league but its over so he missed it., im no sports buff so i dont know if any of that makes sense or is right. he used either the term ''fucking awesome'' or ''fucking tight'' and i think that was in relation to the NHL game. yup i have no idea what im talking about. he's just started getting into soccer. hes into basketball and goes for Los Angeles. he also said stuff about the detroit red wings game. oh i did however briefly come out of stupor and asked him how long he was in london til and he said monday (so today. he flew out this morning i think.
Then we had Jodi which was once again awkward since we dont watch PB and one of the couples were only up to s2, so she spoke to the other couple about the recent season. she didnt really agree with the direction that was occuring with her character and referred to it as a ridiculous storyline. hee i knew jodi from shes all that and whatever it takes but decided better against mentioning that. shes soo pretty in person.
so because talking about pb would be awkward we moved onto london, its her first time here and shes excityed and shes staying 3 extra days to do sightseeing, i think later marshall said he was too? she loves ab fab and will be going to harvey nicks.last night she went to trafalgar square since jetlag has mucked her about.she climbed something in high heels there.
ok i think thats it
There's a lot more to charcters and storylines. If we root, they'll be there longer. I dont think that was necessarily in reference to VM but just all his roles in general on TV inclduing Heroes. - whoops that was said by francis. formatting has gone weird on these hotel comps. so bear with me til i can get home and edit it...
afterwards jason came out into the hallway. he has fancy shoes. but i wanted to see him in chucks. chucks rock my socks ;)
Alright considering I have just under 2hrs of my 24hr internet usage left, I'm going to try and post as much as I can now. I'm living on just under 4 hrs sleep as I type this so yes I love you all very much and this is worth the sleep deprivation! ;) At the moment I'm just going to post about the boys and the con.
