There are few reasons I'd accept to go into New Jersey. SPWF is definately one of them.
It wasn't really much to write home about. I had a great time, spent too much money, got to catch up with my best friend.... but I'm probably not going back. Granted, I'd be interested to return in maybe 10 years when it's potentially much bigger. There were too many young people there, and it's not the fact that the ratio of teens/twenties-to-30plus was ridiculous, but that those teens and 20-somethings were all goth. Granted, I have nothing against black clothes and makeup with wild, purple hair. It's quite attractive on some. But seeing floods of them in one hotel.... I'll pass. The best costumes I noticed all weekend were from older individuals and I do NOT mean OLD. Just... older than the dominant age at the convention. It's probably because they have the financial resources at greater disposal than their younger followers. C'est la vie, je suppose.
HVBRIS was there, which was just about the only thing at the fair I was jumping up and down to see. They'll be at Dorian's Parlor for the 1-year anniversary party. Hello, hometown of Philly. I'mma comin' back for more!
