Thanks. :) I really wish you'd been able to go see him, though! That's unfair that they sold out that fast. Not sure if anything similar happened with the tickets for his show here, but I was on there right as they went onsale, so I guess I lucked out. :|

Thank you again for doing that! :D Really looking forward to them, as I'm sure they're wonderful!

Me too. That's one of my favorite-ever moments from the show.

Well he's opening the new hockey arena so that has something to do with it. Plus seats started at 60 bucks and went up to 200, so it was hard to justify the expense too..what with stupid doctor bills and a car payment :(

Oh, okay. I had no idea about the arena, but that makes sense. And it's too bad that seats for his concerts are never really cheap. :( I still hope you get to do another concert of some sort this year, though!

You actually got a Master wig?

That is kind of awesome. And, yeah, I would have died, too. HI I AM A GEEK :|

Do you have the collar?

I did! There wasn't any other way of getting my hair to look even remotely right, so I just chanced it. And I really do think it came out looking great, which I'm surprised about.

And yes, it was very...awkward. Although I did try to pick screencaps where he didn't look too insane. (It didn't help my *feeling like a huge geek* thing when the hair stylist went, "Oh, it's Doctor Who? ...Well, I don't own a TV.")

Just ordered it last week, actually! So it should be here within about a week, I guess. Thanks again for doing all the hard work of actually designing the collar and pointing out where to order it, by the way. ;D

I award you points for Geek Bravery. And Doctor Who is hard to explain even when people do have TVs >_> Everyone is always like OHRIGHT, the one with the scarf! Because apparently Four is the only Doctor that stuck in U.S. popular memory.

Also, explaining that you are not only dressing up, but crossdressing up can be a bastard.

Woo \o/ Did you get yours a little smaller? I love mine and wear it out on weekends, shh, but I really should have gotten it smaller. Oh, well.

Geek Bravery ftw. \o/ And that's very true. I tried to explain the premise and ended up sounding like an idiot, I'm sure. Usually, though, people do tend to only know Four, yeah. And sometimes those people don't even know that the show's still being made!

It seriously can. I went through that kind of thing with the Ten costume last year. :\ Luckily, the guy doing the wig didn't really seem to care (or, if he did, he pretended not to).

I...think so? If I did, it was only about an inch smaller or something, because I think my collar size came out different than yours by about an inch. I remember being kind of confused about sizing when ordering it, so hopefully it'll end up fitting, although I wouldn't be surprised if I still ordered it too big.

Am I? XD Well, that's awesome of you to say so! I feel very geeky for doing these costumes (and I also have a Sam Tyler one, lolohgod). And I guess I could do that, if you really want to to see. :) It would be less embarrassing if I wasn't in them, yeah, so I might just do it that way. I DON'T HAVE EVERYTHING YET, THOUGH. SHOULD I WAIT TO TAKE THE PICTURES UNTIL I DO?

And thanks so much! ♥ It was utterly amazing.

Pffft, I would never. ;)

Wellll.... I'll see what I can do! They'll be much more awesome if I wait until I have all the accessories and things. :D I'll see if I can get over my embarrassment about actually being in the pictures, but I doubt it. If I do, though, there's probably no way I'd post them publicly if I was in them, so there's that. XD

I know, getting to see them both in the same month is too good to be true. :) And it was amazing! He puts on such a great show.

Thanks so much! It was pretty good, yes. :)

He (Paul)has/had a Toronto date soon-ish (I can't remember when it wasor will be), but I didn't have enough money for a ticket, but a guy I hang out with got one, I was heartbroken!

Aww, how frustrating! I'm sorry that you weren't able to go. I hope you get the chance to see him eventually, though, because I highly recommend it! :)
