Convention: High Points / Low Points
Cosmo's Factory
---------------------------
* Getting to meet the special guests who attended. The con staff did a good
job in getting them here. They were very cordial and approachable. I'm very
happy that I got to take Stephen and Sadie to dinner. I wish I had a picture
of the three of us walking side by side down the street. I hear it looked
quite funny.
* Location, we were a few minutes walk from Time Square, Central Park, Food,
Subway and more. Great spot for a con!
* Seeing people in Gumbo Con Hats and Shirts.
Low Points:
---------------------------
* RAIN, RAIN, FUCKING RAIN.
* Exit 16E (Does It Really Exist?!?!)
* Seeing the audience get verbally scolded by Ruth in front of the special
guests because they weren't up on the legalities behind play rights.
* It's the only hotel I've ever seen with no garbage cans.
Odd points:
----------------------------
* Being in that room on the 7th floor when some guy walks in and asked "is this
where the party is?" We said "yes". He said "Ok". He ushered his 15 year
old daughter threw the door and turned around and left. I guess he that she
was safe with us.
* That guy who kept showing me his knife.
* Maybe we have a different cut of the movie, but where is there an inflateable
penis in the movie?
Favorite Quotes:
---------------------------
"Can't you just make boiled fucking noodles? Do you want me to come back and
show you how?" - Sadie yelling at the waiter at the Chinese Resturant because
they didn't have plain boiled noodles.
"Sadie, maybe you should take more water in your gin." - Stephen to Sadie,
discussing her falling on the plane. Sadie's response "And ruin a perfectly
good double?!"

One of the sad tragedies of 9/11 is that there are considerably fewer garbage
cans in NYC. Its way too easy to drop a bomb in one and have shrapnel
everywhere.

Three spots:
1) Janet in the car turns and opens her mouth to felate the inflatable penis.
2) Riff at the monitor watching janet before bedroom scene turns to kiss the
inflatable penis
3) Janet hears a noise in the tank, turns to see the giant penis and follows it
off screen.
Perhaps your pint *is* different :-)

Its as inflatable as the penis.
There were lots of great quotes from the weekend. I've forgotten a lot of them.
But I enjoyed ron explaining all the fuckups of the bagel place sunday morning
(they originally brought 20 bagels instead of 20 dozen and then charged us
more). And as he is explaining the list of charges he said "And then a few
dollars for a tip, because i had to tip the guy..."

Well the 13 year old kid CLEARLY said 18 :-). I was a lot more disturbed by
Kimi Wong jumping up and kissing the poor boy. That was completely unexpected.

inside them. In other words, they're decorative frames around the cans. Well,
in preparation for the DNC, all the cans were removed but the frames were left.
So very soon afterwards, giant piles of trash appeared inside the can-less frames.
I'm pretty sure a bomb could be hidden in TRASH just as easily as in a trash CAN.

That may be the case that they aren't buying more but they actually took most
of them away in subway stations.

Q
>You can not be fucking serious.
Actually, yes he can. This is pretty common practice, I was talking to people I
knew who had gone to England and griped about having to carry trash with them
because they couldn't find any trash cans.
They finally asked where, if any, were... and discovered they'd been removed
because the IRA had been so fond of dropping bombs into them.

And note the following:
1) I didn't know, at the time of the subway party (this is what I will refer to
as that trip to the theater from this point on.. Bang your bars!), that we had
a Transylvanian with us. I saw him, but didn't know WHO he was.. Just thought
that he was a regular con attendee. Later, when I was told who he was (shut
up.. I had a bridal consultation earlier in the day, so I wasn't able to hear
who he was), I laughed soo hard. If he didn't get a show that night, I don't
know what he experienced. ;)
2) For those that were a bit disturbed by my request to not take photos on the
subway, here's a link to validate my concerns and reasonings.. I do, again,
apologize for killing the photo op, but I was looking out for everyone's best
interest. Dealing with the cops for a large group of people is one thing (as I
did at the Times Square station.. Luckily, we were dealing with a guy that
recognize me from previous subway parties), but to deal with them over photos
is something I wasn't willing to do. Here's a few links to satiate your

As Q pointed out, England, which had to cope with terrorist bombings

similar things happened in Israel.

Telling a Brit that the rights to the play are available struck me as not

The Transylvanian attendees - they totally made the convention for me. Sadie is
just the most adorable thing ever (reminds me of my Grandmother before she
passed away) – I can genuinely say that I was glad to meet her. Kimi’s comment
of, 'I didn’t have to audition because "I was fucking the writer," was
thoroughly entertaining, though I’m still trying to figure out just how
appropriate that really was/is - though her chain smoking through the entire
panel discussion became quite amusing after about 15 minutes. Larry, it was
worth the money to bring them in.
Cosmo, generous and friendly as always.
A convention in New York Fuckin’ City. While I’d never want to live there again,
it was nice to be back there and enjoy it all again. Central Park, Times Square,
Delis, culture, not being able to go more than 5 seconds without hearing a car
horn, insane cab drivers, etc.
Having some of the MM peeps recruited to fold programs and laminate badges
Friday right before registration (which explains why some of it was so crappily
done – I was working on them ;-P) – yep, this was a lot of fun for me to help
out in some way... I like feeling useful.
The cast pre shows, again a REALLY good job all around by EVERYONE and a con
event high point – I even “got” the Lechez Moi one this time around (I didn’t
have anything to do with Rocky, but I didn’t walk away from it going “WTF was
that?” this time...)
Watching everyone have fun with the costume challenge.
Low Points
----------
Wrecking yet another digital camera of mine. For those keeping track, the
official score over the past 3 years of conventions is; Convention
Floors/Walls/Misc. Heavy Objects 3, jefF’s Digital Cameras 0
Yasmin “forgetting to pack” the Shock Treatment straightjacket for the auction –
you guys know me, I almost never bid on auctions, or participate in raffles or
buy much Rocky crap at all, but I was prepared to spend a lot of money to own
one of these. Though this was slightly compensated by seeing an original movie
Columbia corset and floorshow boa up close.
Yet another Rocky convention hotel that had issues / problems. Insanely slow
elevators (also indirectly affecting the destruction of my digital camera),
“damaged” rooms, wrong rooms rates / charges, asshole employees who somehow
think that it is wrong of the customer to get pissed and yell at them when we
get shitty service/attitude from them in the first place (seriously, trying to
argue with me for 5 minutes and charge me full rate and say that I didn't say I
was with the Rocky Horror convention when I made my room reservation is just
about the stupidest thing possible you can say to me - as if).
Almost no centralized party rooms/areas, and the hotel being complete assholes
to the rooms/room owners that did manage to get people to congregate in an area.
Didn’t make much of a difference though, I was so tired at this con, I probably
would have (i.e did) missed most of it anyway.
Altogether having very little or no time to talk to people – though, when you’re
too busy pointing a camera up other people’s asses, it leaves little time for
socializing during the events. Mark T, Bill, Alex, Cosmo, Kev, Scott, and
everyone else I wanted to talk to for more than 30 seconds, sorry, nothing
personal, I didn’t really talk to ANYONE more than that.
Waiting outside the Rocky theater for WELL over an hour to get in. At least it
didn’t rain at that time.
14 hours of driving in rain – both ways. Poorly marked roads, insanely expensive
parking, knees in the back from the back seat, etc. No more road trips to cons
for me... it’s flying all the way from this point on – fuck, I’m flying to the
Chicago con at this point.
Not being able to get on line in NYC to post pics or do anything. Coming home
to, I kid you not, 1,900+ e-mails.
Odd

Believe it or not, nothing exceptionally odd really happened to or around me at
this convention – so, I suppose you can say THAT was odd.

Wheee! Thanks for the shout out! And for telling me about this site, to which
I was painfully oblivious. I hope to get my own pictures and favourite moments
up soon, but my sleep schedule is STILL completely off right now!
But a quick downer- my wife Devon and I had a GREAT time at the con, but of
course we spent way too much money (as I'm sure everyone did). So what happens?
Well, driving back to Binghamton, someone apparently decided that the middle of
the road was the best place to leave their muffler. That muffler and the
underside of our car had an abrupt meeting, resulting in the transmission fluid
pan of our car being ruptured. We had to get towed the last 40 miles back to
Binghamton. So, long story short, $500 extra bucks added to the price of the
weekend!

Yes add to the list the people who were throwing TP directly at the actors in
front! Bastards. And not just tossing it but hurling it at peoples heads and
hitting a few from what I saw. I would have killed someone if they hit me. In
fact I saw a tech guy or trannie or something (it was dark so I couldn't see
really well) first yell at the people, and when they continued to do it, run up
to them and shout in their faces! Hurrah for security!

left side of the center section). I think they were regulars. One of them kept
throwing them at the stage and the other one kept whipping them back over his
head into the face of one of our cast members (Lisa/Diva - the red-headed Janet
in our Bettlejuice preshow).
We left soon after because we were exhausted and about a two-ply charmin away
from getting arrested for what we wanted to do to them.

Though not as amusing as her smoking under her jacket through the first

Okay, my judgement is Devon and Jordan win for the lowest point of after
convention happenings . . .
Second is Steve, getting his luggage sent to Milwaukee (was it?)!!! . . .
Mine was nothing compared. Erica and Anissa got me to Philadelphia in great
time, of course, with time to spare . . .
Then I get on my AmTrak train, the last one of the night, back to Lancaster,
PA, right? And we have to hold up for over an hour waiting for the NYC train
to get in -- for the one hour trip back to Lancaster.
Apparently there was "something on the tracks" which cancelled all trains going
out that way (toward NY and points South) . . .and all trains entering
Philadelphia from 'that way' (North?).
Anyway, the extra hour wait is nothing compared to $500.00 dollars damage to a
car or a tow truck ride, or lost luggage.
Even though I didn't spend too much, except for food, at the convention (once
there; spent a bit, of course, previous to arriving) -- my low point is coming
back home nearly completely broke (spending my last $20.00 for a cab home -- no
busses in Lancaster after 5 p.m. on Sunday) and nothing coming in until . . .
geez, tomorrow or later this week!

I think it was like that even before the trash cans were removed.

Yeah, that was definitely NOT one of the finer convention / Rocky moments that
I've witnessed. I mean, I can kinda understand if it was a "regular" audience
with maybe mostly virgins, but this was a fucking convention with mostly all
seasoned Rocky veterans (i.e. people that SHOULD FUCKING KNOW BETTER!). I
observed people that I KNEW are MEMBERS of the NYC and other casts participating
in this total bullshit (and I’d be happy to point a couple of them out to Wally
at a future con just to see him give them the high heel kick to the head) -
fuck, if that's the kind of nonsense that they have and allow at their shows,
I'm GLAD I'm back home. I realize that we're all basically mimicking a movie and
we aren't at the top of sophistication or maturity to begin with, but can we
really truly regress any more to REAL 12 year old level antics?

Unfortunately, I don't know the names and I don't want to take the chance of
misidentifying anyone. There is one guy I'm relatively positive that I can
identify (the one I shouted "scene is over, you fucking asshole" directly at
when they were uncovering Janet and Rocky and he was STILL doing it – he might
even remember ME), the rest though I'm not sure enough. I'll check through my
pics though, I think I took at least one or two pics of the audience during the
show, if not during the actual happening, and I'd be happy to forward them if I
have anything where you might be able to identify the people.
watch out for me and the camera,

***Awesome....thanx. Incriminatiing photos CAN be good,lol. Anyway, one of the
sad things in NY is that we get a lot of really over eager audience members who
become friends with one or two cast members and then automaticly think they are
actually in cast. I know that might sound crazy, as if to say that the cast is
soo special people are lying about belonging to be cool..lol. But, its actually
true in a way. This sucks b/c in instances like this (which I actually think it
might have been these people and not actual real cast members,but I could be
wrong)the whole deal can get us into a little trouble and almost ruin something
that was really great.I'm sure Ron, super Brad that he is, will take care of it

you know what i hate? when a cast has one or two very simple rules, and someone
has to go and break them. don't throw TP at the screen or the actors. i would

different up here.

I'll admit, it very well could have been someone of the "cast member by
association" type of guys (lord knows that just about every cast has a couple of
those). I remember seeing the one I'm thinking about hang out with NYC cast
members a lot, and I kind of remember him having a NYC Rocky T shirt (I don't
know if you sell those to the general public or not though) but I can't say for
absolute sure that he is a NYC cast member as I don't know every member of your
cast. Pretty much all I can say based on memory alone at this point is that he
wasn't Mad Man Mike or Ron. ;-P
just don't persecute anyone on my claim here alone - I'll feel really bad if the
wrong guys get singled out,

ones in front of me along with a larger guy. He kept jumping over the rows to
as to walk over the laps of my castmates rather than his friends and was also
throwing the tp *at* the stage and the rice *at* our faces:

From my excellent vantage point at the stage right corner, I *also* saw the same
two guys (I am convinced of it from Alex's description/location/details) very
maliciously and repeatedly very forcefully throwing the toliet paper at the
performers and screen. Lots of it.
There were a few others scattered throughout the theatre throwing tp
inappropriately (I vaguely recognized several of them as convention goers/RHPS
people, but I don't know for sure specifically who and if they actually were
official members of any cast or not and thus would be uncomfortable pointing
fingers at them) and intentionally (and also wouldn't stop when very explicitly
told to stop), but those two guys really stood out.
I found the behavior absolutely appalling and can't believe Rocky people-- who
certainly should know better-- would do that.
Otherwise, I had a great time attending the show and convention in general.
Thanks again to the convention committee!

Most definitely seconded. While it is nice when a cast can keep its members in
line, and if it was your own show/theater it would have been a different
story/situation - in other situations though that are bascially out of your
control people act as individuals and I'd never hold the actions of an asshat or
two against a cast (not to say though that I wouldn't mind a cast disciplining
someone after the fact for various shitheadedness perpetuated by their members).
Lawd knows several of my cast members have done things over the past decade that
I wouldn't want held against me or my cast...

Hehehe... Boot To The Head is one of our most successful preshows... lol
And it's a damn good thing I was in the back when the TP started
flying - I've got a zero tolerance for peeps that intentionally hit the
actors or other people... I would have stage-dived over the seats into the
audience and made them eat the whole damn roll.... I abhor unnecessary
violence... necessary violence, on the other hand... (it's not that I'm a
violent man, but I'm just so good at it...lol)

Seems to me we have our share of people distinctly lacking common
sense .. an inarguable point considering that we just knowingly
brought back in the same bunch of crooks in the recent election.
(course, one might say that pretty much identifies what part of the
country NOT to move to)

I was sitting up in the front row when the raid of TP starting slamming the
performers up front! I was really worried about everyone and even covered my
head in fear of getting a hard one on the noggin' (well at least a different
type) Glad noone was seriously hurt...but I want to commend the performers for
staying in character and performing their hearts out...even though a few
immature morons tried to ruin it.

Good LORD, Quad, you're sexy when you sound like a Dominatrix on Prozac. ;)

off and when I came out of the elevator, I saw a couple kids raiding the maid
closet of tp. I don't know if it was another group or just missing the two guys
I previously pointed out because those two at least weren't the ones at the closet.
In any case, they offered to fill my bag and I accepted. 20 or so rolls of tp
will not break the bank of any hotel, especially the crappy no name brand this
place had. :) I figured the hotel probably had more serious things to worry about.
So I got to the show, gave 5-10 rolls or so to others around me including a
group of virgins, and then threw the rest when the time came. I threw them up
high and behind me.
So, I threw correctly but I still stole. Let the beatings begin.
