Any B3 alums out there?
It would be great to get together and reminisce.
Thus, if you are planning to attend (or thinking of attending) Creation Entertainment's Salute to Serenity November 22-23, 2008 [ http://www.creationent.com/cal/serenity.htm] let us know. I've communicated with James Riley, President of the Californial Browncoats, [ www.socalbrowncoats.com www.californiabrowncoats.org] who along with his California colleagues helped craft the wonder of B3.
If there is interest, we'll plan a mighty fine shindig to think back on our own Serenity Valley two years ago--where the Independents won! :)
Could be just drinks, or perhaps a trip to Universal or Hollywood.
Let us know.

It will be wonderful to be back in Burbank!
(something I never thought I would say prior to B3). :D

Me! Me! I'm going! Actually I was meaning to take a little tour of the Torrance High School and a slow drive by of Buffy's house....
but of course going to Universal would be cool too.
(and I always love Disneyland)
So, are you thinking about before or after? Cause I don't want to miss out on Adam, Jewell, and Ron (and anyone else who ends up coming) during the convention....

Edited to add: I just noticed that Summer Glau is appearing too!
We are up to 4 BDHs now! Yay!

Hi, Embers.
Wonderful to hear from you.
I remember you well.

I am planning on "before" the Convention.
I am flying out Thursday Nov. 20th with my nigh 20 year old daughter (who is excited at possibly meeting "Jayne"

). My hope is that Friday day and/or evening will be time for a B3 reunion event--or just a shared meal and drinks.

After Comic Con, I'll be in touch with James to see what we may do. All ideas are welcome. Check back for updates.

Respectfully,

I had asked the local Browncoats (many of whom had been at B3) if they would be going to Creation, and many said they would be buying one day tickets later, when the schedule is announced. I imagine the same is true of the LA Browncoats....
so if we revive this thread in mid-November, and/or post at the yahoo group here:
http://tv.groups.yahoo.com/group/SoCalBrowncoats/
we'll get a better idea of who'll be there.

I'm pretty sure we'll be able to get a fairly big group together, but regardless I'll be driving down on Friday and would love to meet up for dinner w/you & your daughter... but I can come down a day earlier if there is a shindig of any sort planned.

I'm looking forward to getting Adam to autograph the photo of the two of us taken at B3!

Yes. I purchased a photo op with Adam for my 20 year old daughter whose accompanying me this year. She loves his bad boy image (Oy!).
Let's keep in touch.

I wasn't at B3 but did watch everything unfold online and had friends who were there - but I'm coming over for the con from Oz - I'll be in LA from Mon 17th to the 24th so if anything gets organised for before the con I'd be interested in hearing about it - so long as you don't mind "outsiders" being involved :)

Hi, Talie.
A "virtual" B3 alum?

Sure.
Check back here or email me and I'll fill you in when I know more.

True for any other actual or "virtual" (gotta kick out of that) alumni. Let us know if you'll be at the con.

I was not at B3, (sorry, late bloomer) but it would still be awesome to sit down and have a drink with you all if I'm able to attend this November. Anyone still willing to meet?

My daughter was a "late bloomer"/post B3 convert as well.
So no apologies required.
You are absolutely welcome.
I've been in touch with James, Prez of the SoCal Browncoats today. He has a wedding event Friday night (a blessing upon blessings), so Thursday night or Saturday night after the con are the times he can join us.
My daughter and I will be flying in late Thursday afternoon from Maine, so we'll likely be jet-lagged, but if Thursday night is better for you all, we'll tough it out.
We'll be around Friday as well if you and Embers and any other B3 alumni or "virtual" alumni (

just love this) want to toast B3 and the current con or Jayne or the Mudders....

Keep watch here or email me, and I'll keep you updated.

That's cool. It still depends on what's going on at work whether I head out there or not. I've got plenty of flyer-miles racked up to get out there free, just need to get projects out the door... The night for me, personally, would be Saturday if any.
I'll be in touch...

well I was going to get in early enough to have Friday to enjoy...
it doesn't seem like a big group for Friday fun.
Do you guys have any ideas of what you want to do?

On my own I was thinking of driving to Torrance to check out Buffy's old home and High school, but I'm open to other ideas if anyone wants to do anything fun!

I'm definitely getting excited about Creation Con,
is this Gina Torres' first convention?
And I'm so excited about Jane Espenson coming to speak!
It is going to be an awesome weekend (or really, longer than that)

Hi, Embers.
Quality often matters more than quantity.

B3 was a unique experience, likely to be unmatched.
And if most of Creation Con's Burbank attendees are new this year, there is a silver lining in that as well.
Still awaiting if James and any of his fellow SoCal Browncoats are able to get together--they do have a wedding Friday evening, but will be at the con.
I'll update here when I learn anything further
If we're "out of gas", I still look forward to saying "hi" one evening, if you like. Email me if you want me to inform you where Hannah and I will be.

Respectfully,
Bob

Sorry guys,

Looks like the Creation convention is out for me this year. Please, keep in touch with me and let me know first hand how it goes. I wanted to sooooo bad to get my picture with Adam and meet Summer and Gina. I really hope they end up doing more conventions.

Shoot me pictures if you guys don't mind. My e-mail is co.pilot@live.com

And please, everyone keep in touch and let me know who's going to the next round of conventions next year - comicons, dragoncons, creationcon etc.

Sorry again....

Sorry you can't make it this year.
Check back for con updates and reflections--and comparisons.
I also hope that those who have them will post links to sites where they've downloaded photos and movies.

Good news is that both the California Browncoats and Austin Browncoats will have table and promoting Kids Need To Read [ http://community.kidsneedtoread.org/ ]. They're good people.

Howdy folks!

James here. We have some basic plans for gathering at Creation this week. Nothing major, just a chance for B3ers (and anyone else) who wants to hang out for a while.

Thursday night. Around 7ish Lynn and I will be at the hotel and probably hang out in the lobby. Anyone who stops by and wants to join us for dinner is welcome.

Friday Night. Ido from NoCal is organizing a dinner for anyone who wants to attend. This is at 8 PM at the restaurant in the hotel. The gathering will likely continue at the bar after dinner.

Saturday night. Party at Tammy's room from 7-ish until ?? The room info will be available from our table as soon as she gives it to us. We might get dinner again before the party and have another impromptu B3 gathering. I think we will just tell anyone who wants to gather with other b3ers to check the party and if not there, we will leave info where we are at the party. I expect we might take over the lobby again. :)

All last minute plans will be discussed and/or announced on the SoCal yahoo group

http://tv.groups.yahoo.com/group/SoCalBrowncoats/

Lynn and I will be running the CABC table at the convention. So if you want to find us, find out what is going on, or get connected with others, stop by the table.

Thanks
James
