It's been awesome to read the reports of what has happened. It's amazing how the California Browncoats pulled together the Browncoat Backup Bash. And our BDHs are the BEST.

So sorry to hear that you got sick. Hope you can rest up. I'm eager to hear more about...

I'll probably have more to say later, especially as I managed to get a few minutes' face time with Adam to ask him a specific question about his notes on the Pilot Episode script. There's an interesting answer, and it's not what I expected.


I love Adam Baldwin. I can't wait to hear what he said.

I'll be posting my own stories when I get a moment to breathe, but for now...uh, yeah, what DonCoat said!

DonCoat,

Thanks for your kind words; it was great meeting you. I wish you good health.

The California BCs were truly heroic, and our BDHs were amazing! I'm sure you've read elsewhere by now about the wonderful things that Claire Kramer, Tim Minear, Johnathon Woodward, Greg Edmonson, Morena Baccarin, Ron Glass, Michael Fairman, Shawna Trpcic, and Camden Toy, as well as several other Whedonverse performers whose names I don't know, did for us. It was incredible.

To set the record straight, we didn't have to sleep in our van, which is good because it's actually a sedan, and it was packed to the gills. On Thursday night, we bunked with several wonderful Browncoats who had extra beds in their rooms; even though we'd never met them before, they offered us their hospitality. On Friday and Saturday nights, we had a room provided by an individual Seattle Browncoat who knew about our situation. Xie-xie, Jei-Jei!

All weekend long, Browncoats showered us with generosity, buying us drinks and food, helping us, giving us presents, contributing to our travel fund, and honoring us with their attention and applause. In some ways, the greatest moment for us came ten minutes after we learned of the cancellation, when we walked into a lobby full of disappointed Browncoats. One of them spotted us and shouted, "Hey, the Bedlam Bards are here! We have celebrities!" The whole lobby shook with the cheering, and we had goosebumps. It was a huge compliment.

Overall, it was a great event. But we should have known it would be--Browncoats aren't the kind to put up with a cancellation . . .

Hi, Cedric. Glad you found places to crash! I should have known the 'Coats wouldn't leave you out in the... well... warm.

For anyone interested in the story I hinted at concerning the pilot episode script, I started a separate thread about it: "Adam Explains Script Comment".
