/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

>Whos attending?

Me and my usual m8

>Do you enjoy the con? Hate it?

Love it. Only other cons I've been to are JAFAX (which is much smaller) and ACen this year for the first time (Which was slightly underwhelming), so I don't have a large frame of reference.

>Any good stories?

IIRC This was the first year where it was split between Ren Cen and COBO, buta joke with my m8s grew into an actual joke of my fat male ass crossplaying as Hanyuu from Higurashi. While making the walk between the two, there was a group taking wedding photos in front of the Joe Louis Fist sculpture. While I was passing them, they yelled out for all the cosplayers to join them for one picture, so we went and joined in, and somehow I was dead front and center.

Second story was last year when my friend decided to do the ENTIRE rave without telling us. It was like 3-4 AM and she hadn't even called, so I went out to find her. Tried calling a Taxi to take me back to the Ren Cen (We were at the hotel near COBO, forget the name), but it never came so I just walked over there. Almost got hit because some jackass was driving with no lights on, good thing the drunks I ended up walking with had better night vision than I did. Anyway, by the time I got there, she was in a cab herself, she stopped so I could get in and we rode back. As we were walking back into the hotel, my friend started pulling on my shirt like "OH SHIT LOOK ITS JON ST JOHN". Sure enough, there was he and two other guests my memory is failing me on, so we go over, say hello, ask for a pic etc. One of the two make a joke that he was actually a bum asking for money, and since my brain was fried I actually tried to give him 20 bucks. Those guys are awesome for still being inviting to fans at like 4 AM. Pic related (no bully pls)

>Why do the musical guest blow every year?

Blame Canada.

Seriously, that's why Origa's concert got canceled.
