My first suggestion is start trying what i suggested in my FL/GA Browncoats post. Get people together in you area see the interest. If its hard to get more than 10 people together over a Sat/Sun a convention would tank for sure.

There is a Firefly Convention on next year.
Fusion - run by Starfury Events.

This is being held in Blackpool in the UK, April 30th - May 2, and Nathan Fillion is one of the guests.

I know a lot of the UK & European fans are planning to go.

I must admit I am breaking a sworn promise never to return to the Norbrek, for the sake of Firefly!

Apologies for my message appearing 3 times. I kept getting an error page when i tried posting it earlier, and was not aware it had appeared. If anyone knows a way to delete the duplicates, please feel free

ahem...the official term now for a Firefly-oriented convention type gathering (no matter how big or small) is Shindig.

I am quite proud of this term as I coined it...instead of calling it a Con, its a Shindig...obvious reasons.

hehehe

Still it's a good line up.

If ya have a look in the Jan issue of SFX you'll see an announcement for Fusion, with Jewel being mentioned.

Sean said that they had 'jumped the gun' and had announced earlier than he'd planned.

I just say *bounce*!!!!!!!!!!
Ys - love ya

Keep flyin'

Come to the UK Shindig - aka Fusion, two thou and four!!!!

Gina Torres is needed for costume fittings and make up tests for
FIREFLY: SERENITY, and has had to cancel her appearance.

Morena Baccarin has just been cast in a film.

My guess is Morena's going w/ Gina for costume fittings for Serenity.

Bad news for the con, but good news for Firefly fans. It means production is moving ahead for the BDM.

OK, I've just secured the second replcement guest. We're tying up the
lose ends, but hopefully I'll be able to announce tomorrow evening.

This is a major, major actor. Infact I'm kinda amazed that he's
agreed to attend.

He's never been in BUFFY, ANGEL or FIREFLY. Never worked with Joss
Whedon.

He is however, probably the biggest name guest to ever attend a
STARFURY event, and I'm still in slight shock that he's agreed to
attend. He's such a big name that he'll join Nick and Emma as one of
the headline guests.

If I had to name the top 5 all time Sci-Fi actors, he'd definately be
one of them. He's been in what's accepted as one of the greatest Scifi films ever made, and also in unquestionable one of the greatest
ever Sci-Fi TV series.

I don't get excited very often. I'm excited!

Sean
