Hey all,

For anyone headed to Dragon-Con labor day weekend (as you know Joss and most of the cast of Firefly/Serenity will be attending as guests).

On behalf of the SEBC (SouthEastern Browncoats) I'll be spearheading the formation of a Firefly/Serenity group to march in the Dragon-Con parade Saturday morning. The parade is a blast, nothing like marching downtown in costume with streets lined with cheering crowds. I'd say hundreds if not close to a thousand people come out to watch the costumers/cosplayers parade by. Its definately well worth getting up early (or in some cases pulling an all night Friday Night).

Consider this an all-call for costumers/cosplayers to join me in the Sat am parade. Anyone interested email me: Subject: Dragon-Con Parade to TechieCL at gmail dot com

There's no requirement on quality of costume. Be as screen accurate as you'd like or simply have a costume inspired from our favorite series.

Look forward to meeting everyone who joins up.

ALSO

The SEBC, the night before (Friday) will be hosting a Firefly/Serenity costume competion at the SEBC sponsored Shindig. It will have an original (screen accurate) division and an "inspired by" division.

crap, crap, crap, crap....why oh why do my fandoms have to have competing activities......

I wanted to walk with you guys again, techiecl, BUT, I was recently contacted by the Trek Trak guys, and they want me riding the "Klingonmobile" in the parade as a former Miss Klingon....I really like that car, and am loving the whole kitchy thing they're doing with the pageant this year (we may be on TV), so I guess I'm gonna ride in ridge instead of Browncoat.

Although I AM going to have "Browncoat" buttons prominently attached to my costume, and if we are ahead of you guys in the line up, I plan on having my browncoat and hat with me and trying to rip off the ridge, throw on the hat and coat and run back and join up with ya all!

Hey SHK, I'm looking forward to seeing that transition from Klin to BC in 3.5 seconds. DO you need a phone booth for that or do you just spin around in place?

I aim to misbehave!

It's more the Wonder Woman change....bracelets of power, and a quick spin...possibly a fast duck behind a large Klingon and a bat'leth fan dance as distraction....

Awww man, well sorry to hear 'bout the conflict. No worries if you can't make it. We know your a browncoat regardless of how many lobster ridges are on your forehead

Why am I thinking your wife will have NO problem being a convincing companion...
