Some dedication to impersonating me, at least

As someone who is paying $600+ to fly out to Washington for Katsucon, I'm surprised I was so bitter about the $75 price tag, but yeah, it's basically the most expensive con ever for something so small.

I moved here a couple months ago from Ontario, the local anime group is really swell, looking forward to getting some good cosplay photos. I'm just so desperate for a convention that Hal-con is looking pretty good, we don't have anything else until Animeritime in June, and that's 5 hours away. I'm confirmed for running 3 panels over the halcon weekend~ so there will be a bit of animu content. Come check it out!

Time: 3:45pm - 4:30pm on Friday
Name: Gainax Anime
Desc: Discussing works from the award winning studio giants behind Neon Genesis, Gurren Lagann, FLCL and more, all the way from Gunbuster to Garterbelt.

Time: 12:15pm - 1:00pm on Saturday
Name: The Films of Hayao Miyazaki
Desc: Studio Ghibli has single-handedly brought anime to the masses in North America. In this panel we will discuss the works of founder and director Hayao Miyazaki, creator of Princess Mononoke, Spirited Away, Howl's Moving Castle, and Ponyo.

Time: 3:00pm - 3:45pm on Sunday
Name: Video Panel: Anime Shorts
Desc: We'll be watching a truck load of different creative Anime shorts, from the 3min. long episodes of 'Morita-san' to the stand-alone feline monologue 'she and her cat'.

I'm actually looking for a couple co-panelists for Miyazaki and Gainax, just people to help with the conversation, talk about your favorite characters/movies/etc. if anyone's interested. Also, is anyone doing any elaborate cosplays or anything? I guess the con's going to be small enough that i'll have a chance to get some photos of most costumes.
