Marscon 2009: Saturday, Part II
Mar. 12th, 2009 11:11 amcontinuing from Saturday, Part I
A break in the concerts I wanted to see! I gave MC Lars two songs. Not a font in my CSS. Time to see what's happening in the Consuite.
As mentioned in the previous segment, Marscon isn't Child Care but is rather kid friendly.![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
naomikritzer's daughter was having scads of fun dressed up as her favorite Harry Potter character.
Music Guest of Honor Wally Pleasant brought along his wife and a keyboardist (who I didn't get a good picture of). I've never seen him in concert before, though I have all his CDs, and this was a treat. He played several favorites, had a dash of banter with the audience, and in general gave a performance worthy of a 20 year career. I think the Marscon crowd surprised him a little; the room wasn't packed (attendance overall was down, I think, and no one had SRO) but we were quite enthusiastic.
( a cut to spare those who don't like too many pictures in one post: Cthulu peeps, Mike from last year, Insane Ian and Chris Mezzolesta, Gifted Gear and Mom, neofen, Joe Swenson )
So I finally left Marscon after midnight. Early for a Saturday night, even for me, but the time change was imminent and I wanted to catch some programming on Sunday. Alas, I didn't make that... but that's reserved for the final installment of the conreport.
