So I'm back from the Second Vampire Ball. I had a good time despite the disappointment at the late cancellation of Eliza - many tickets were sold on the strength of her appearance which is always risky but at least I had already bought mine before she was announced. It would have been nice to see her though. Ah well. Apparently she has agreed to appear at Invasion 2 in May next year. It's a mix of shows - The Guild, Battlestar, Caprica, Stargate and Firefly. Whilst I watch all but Stargate I'm not sure I want to go yet. Morena Baccarin and Felicia Day will be there - but the other guests don't really get me excited. I think I will mull over buying a ticket until December.
Anyhow new venue Renaissance Hotel was pretty nice - no sticky carpets, indifferent service or poor food so that was a plus. The DJ at the parties has changed and is much better although you do get a small selection of Convention dance songs (

whiskyinmind they played House Rules and Whisky In Mind by Kane ) To give Sean Harry his due he got J August Richards at four days notice and Keith (Holtz) Szarabjaka as replacements. Julie Benz, Nick Brendon, Mark Metcalfe, Clare Kramer, Georges Jeanty, Allan Hyde (True Blood) & Mariana Klaveno completed the line up. I've some nice photos which I'll post along with a report /artwork later once I've got everything unpacked.
