Thanks, PAX! And Now, Here Comes Dragon*Con…

So Many Leias...Thanks once again to everyone at PAX for a pants-soilingly good time*. Special thanks to our friends both old and new who joined us for a truly epic live version of “I Will Sing a Lullabye“.

And now, we realign our sights for another weekend of fun nerd-conventioning: Dragon*Con. Here is our planned schedule:

Friday, Sept. 2
1 pm – Geek-a-Week Panel – Hyatt, Regency VI-VII
Hosted by Len Peralta

2:30 pm – Paul and Storm Talk About Some Stuff for Five to Ten Minutes (On Average), LIVE! – Hilton, Room 204
A live recording of our podcast, with special guest Jonathan Coulton (and possibly other folks, depending on what incriminating photos we can gather between now and then)

8:30 pm – Variety Playhouse
Concert at our favorite Atlanta venue, with Jonathan Coulton and his band (it’s also a release party for his new CD, Artificial Heart). NOTE: This show is not associated with Dragon*Con, you must buy tickets for it like a non-badge holding mortal.

Saturday,  Sept. 3rd
During the day-ish – we’ll be selling and signing at our merch table at some point on Saturday; details and location TBA (check our Twitter feed at @paulandstorm for updates)

4:30 pm (-ish) – Parsec Awards Ceremony – Hyatt, Regency V
We’re presenting an award at the Parsec Awards Ceremony (which honor speculative fiction podcasting). Come see who we’ll be wearing!

8:30 pm – Gonzoroo (concert) – Marriott, Atrium Ballroom
An official Dragon*Con concert this time, again with us and Jonathan Coulton and many special, surprise guests. Hosted by the inimitable Ken Plume and Widgett Walls. There will be merch sales immediately following this show as well, somewhere right near the Atrium Ballroom. (Location TBA)

Sunday, Sept. 4th
During the day-ish – more merch sales. Twitter for updates, blah blah blah. UPDATE: Our table is on the Marquis floor of the Marriott; we will be there at roughly 11-12 Sunday morning, and then again around 2 pm Sunday afternoon.

1 pm – FRED Presents Yet Another Panel About Doctor Who – Hyatt, International North
Ken Plume and Glen Oliver host, you guessed it, a panel about Doctor Who. We’re “helping out.” Watch out for low-flying irreverence.

8:30 pm – Gonzo Quiz Show III: BEYOND THUNDERQUIZ – Hyatt, Regency VI-VIII
A celebrity quiz show panel show thingy, hosted by Ken Plume and Widgett Walls. We did this one a few years ago, and it was pretty crazy-nuts.

UPDATE: Mon., Sept. 5th
10 am – Wil Wheaton’s Panel – SHeraton, Grand Ballroom
We’ll be joining Wil Wheaton at his panel (that he refuses to acknowledge is called “Wesley Crusher: Boy Genius”, as he wasn’t consulted), proving musical accompaniment and generally doing the “Dance, Monkeys!” thing.

Will we see you all there? THE CORRECT ANSWER IS “YES.”

*We did not actually soil our pants**.

**As far as you know.

    See you Friday! I need to buy a size medium cover band name T shirt for Mark, who won’t be there Friday. So be sure and pack one to sell to me.

    The Lullabye with special guests is totally awesome! I so wish I’d seen it. The video you link to is great (especially because it captures the video screen shenanigans), but this other one shows the guests more clearly (I didn’t fully grasp the presence of LIVE POWER BALLAD STRING MUSICIANS from the balcony perspective): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YbXHKen6vyU

    Thanks as always for letting fans capture a bit of the live experience to share with folks who couldn’t be there!
