CosplayCon ’14

So here are my photos from the event that when on at a place known as Franks and Son’s Collectables. From what I understand is Stan Lee was there earlier in the day but had to leave early because apparently a mistake with someone was make that he and other people we works with did know about till a few days ago was that he was double booked. I got there after he took off anyways and over all my main interest was the people there in costume. And to see some friends of mine that I knew were going to be there, because I know them far to well.

And I’m glad I got to meet quite a few new people.

LA SantaCon ’13 Photos

So FINALLY they are online. Yesterday I was doing a short video shoot with some friends of mine of something I’ve been wanting to do for some time which will be online later because I still have some other things to do with it. And now for the story of the day. I started off meeting with a friend of mine by her place around North Hollywood, while I was dressed in what I called myself a Dark Elf, and took the red line over to Union Station. Along the way we found other santas jumping on from other station to the start of the main event. After reaching Union we jumped on the gold line and ended to East LA and made it to our destination, El Mercadito Mariachi. Where they had food, drinks, and Mariachi band playing for us. It was great.

Then off to our next location, Chinatown, where we hung around the Bruce Lee statute and acted even more weird around the place, had people stop us to take photos and everything. Our third location was LACMA where we played around the lights, the front of the museum and even wondered around the nearby Tar Pits. From there it was starting to get dark and then we went to Rage in West Hollywood. I’ve walked by that place many times during Halloween, Pride, maybe during a rally or two and some other non-event related moment where I just happen to be in the area. We all went in and really took over the dance floor.

After that it was time for me to head home. I found it nice not only seeing everyone again, even if it is only once a year but there were some people that keep seeing me and said I’ve taken so many photos of them before that they wanted one with me. So hopefully I’ll get to find some of those and I’ll post them up here.

And I hope to see you santas again, not just next year but maybe during some other event going on during the year.

In fact a little to tried to look through the photos and edit them so they should be online tomorrow because I also have some other little project during the day. But for now here is a sample of what I saw.

SantaCon ’13

Yeah, I’m a little to excited for the event. Ever since I first discovered this event in 2010 I look forward to it every time because it has so much weirdness going on and it just cracks me up. And I would say this is the final grand event of the year, and then the next starts with No Pants Subway which is also a lot of fun.

For anymore info be sure to check this site, this one here, the faceboook event page, and the twitter. Now I don’t have everything right now but there will be more info as the week goes by and I hope to see you there. Also if you are not in LA be sure to check out if your city is also taking part here.

WonderCon ’13 Photos

Yes, they are online. I ended up taking off from my place saturday morning and it was a very long ride down to Anaheim so I really spent like a day and a half there. I should of left on friday. Oh well, I had fun. And there is a short video coming from someone else famous.

And now to post about things I saw and people I talked to, for example I ran into the Nerds Like Us guys dressed as Dark Helmet and Barf from Spaceballs. Meet the original Blue Ranger from the Power Ranger series, and the Soup Nazi from Seinfeld. Turns out he was in more stuff I’ve seen then I had once believed. Took part of a scavenger hunt created by the guys from Been Better Comics. Sadly I didn’t get the chance to show them photos of what I got on the list. Talked to the people from the TooSoon Comic booth and told them one thing I’m trying to do to get more people to like my page on facebook is when I get 500 likes on my page I’ll post a video of a toilet being destroyed. I think they said they want to help out on that because they want to see that video. Meet with a guy going by the name EJ De la Pena from the series Nobilty. He said it was like the Office in space. That kind of peaks my interest. And last before I took off I looked at the Cartoon Hangover booth and a guy there asked if I had seen Bravest Warrior. Told him I haven’t and signed a card for me saying to. So many things I need to watch.

To bad I was only there for 2 days, I knew I should of headed down on the first one.

LA Santa Con ’12

So the day started like any other and… no not really. I was on my way to the first stop in Culver City Taking the Expo Line over in order to meet with the santas at two very near by locations just down the street and have breakfast. One Location was the The Culver Hotel and the other was the Rush Street Cafe. I found a near by Chipotle and ate there, and some other santas did the same thing. So after about maybe an hour and a half we gathered up and jumped on the Expo Line to head to our next location. Expo Park. The main place of Interest was the Science Center where the santas would get to see the Space Shuttle that I saw going up Crenshaw 2 months before. While many were looking at the shuttle others where either in the front taking part of the group shoot or in back playing around the Fountain in the Rose Garden.

After we were done with Expo Park we started heading off to our next place of interest in Downtown at the Westin Bonaventure were we partied it out more on the outdoor patio area and had a Punk Band play Christmas songs for us. Mosh Pit in all. After the Bonaventure we headed towards Hollywood and took the Red Line to Hollywood and Vine and walked over to 3 different spots, Velvet Margarita, District 13, and where I was around most during that time, St. Felix and we hung around other places in between. After that it was my time to head home. Hopped on the subway and made my way.

and as they say, nothing better then hanging with Santa all day
