well, most of them. I'm still missing a photo with Gareth. Hopefully I'll get it tomorrow. I'm trying to be very polite in my emails, but it's been 5 weeks since the convention and I want my damn photos.

Anyways, photos behind the cut )

I'll post my second Gareth photo whenever I get it...

I HAVE SURVIVED THE TORCHSONG CURSE! Yay! I'm home and very exhausted. I'll try to work on writing things up and posting photos tomorrow. No promises about that though. I kind of want to sleep for a hundred hours or so.

I don't think I could love GDL more than I do at this very moment

Off to see if [livejournal.com profile] inell has updated Two Men & a Motorbike and then I'm crashing out.

OMG YOU GUYS! We're rather having a blast here! Yeah, it really sucks that John Barrowman isn't here, but he was hilarious on the SkyChat link we had with him. And Scott walked into the webcam shot wearing a bright pink speedo as he brought JB some water. Yum.

I'm never going to remember everything that's being said to give a proper recap, but I have these two tidbits for now. Someone asked Gareth what song he thinks would be Ianto's theme song. He answered with 'The Final Countdown by Survivor'. I couldn't let that go, so I shouted 'No, The Final Countdown is by Europe'. He looked and pointed at me and said 'yeah, yeah, you're right! It's Europe. Survivor did Eye of the Tiger. That's the #2 song then.' I SCHOOLED GDL ON HAIR BAND MUSIC. ;)

And then when we were getting autographs, I handed him my Ianto mug to get signed. He looks at it and says, 'hey, that's like the one I use on the show!'. Yes sweetie, it is indeed.

Seriously, he's so nice and awesome and I kind of want to keep him for myself. But his fiancee probably wouldn't be too amused by that.

ANYWAYS. Read more... )

Hullo! Having a great time! Gareth looks even more deliciously gorgeous today! And I got some extra hug time from him. Tom Price is in MASSIVE pain but is a trooper and still did photos and talked. We're heading to lunch and then to hear Mark Sheppard and Gareth talk. YAY!

also, I may have bought a Star Trek shirt in the dealer's room o_O

OMG GARETH TOUCHED MY ARM!

Also, I totally took a photo with my phone, even though it wasn't allowed.



SO PRETTY. UNGH.

Okay. So here's what I know right now. The con is not canceled. They're supposedly going to find someone to still do a cabaret on Saturday night, which is complete bullshit. People were going to see JOHN, not to hear someone sing. Gareth is definitely in Chicago as he was on the same flight as one of the convention attendees, so he'll be there. Hopefully, they'll just do a one day con on Saturday, give us Sunday free and refund some of the ticket price. But we'll see.

Leaving to drive to Chicago now. I have no idea when I'll be back online, so uhhh, let me know if anything else happens, [livejournal.com profile] stardiver?

See you soon, [livejournal.com profile] bibliogrrl!

GARETH DAVID-LLOYD HAS BEEN ADDED AS A GUEST TO TORCHSONG: CHICAGO.

I...I don't even know what to do about this. My pulse is racing and I'm flailing and I almost feel like I might faint. I'm going to get to meet him.

GUH.
leighblack: (GDL - Boxers or Briefs)
sooooo...GDL apparently canceled his convention appearance in London on June 6th. I am SO SO SO hopeful that this means he's coming to TorchSong instead. He has mentioned he wants to go back to LA in June to look for work again. Chicago is on the way, right?


pathetic fangirl is pathetic

Thank you, dear anonymous sender, for the gift of an emo heart! ;) 'Tis very sweet of you. ♥

[livejournal.com profile] praguematic is KILLING me. Seriously. She's at Gallifrey One. Gareth David-Lloyd (and Kai Owen!) is at Gallifrey One. I am in my parents kitchen. I think you can see the problem here. ::frowny face::

Yes, I am once again dog sitting while my parents are in Phoenix for the next five days. Earl is already pissed off with me since I came back in the car without his mama, after I dropped them off at the airport. It's going to be a long few days.

Maybe we should just go take a nap...

YOU GUYS!

Gareth


me

Errr, why no. I didn't spend $66 to import a shirt from the Netherlands because GDL was wearing it and I liked it. I would never do anything like that.

"simply does it . . . . . . .blue gillespie will be venturing overseas to the states at the end of this year or at the start of the new year.

nothing is confirmed yet but it is in the pipeline. some of you my not know but gareth recently visited LA and canada for business and personnal reasons. whilst there made a few friends in the music industry who like our stuff. lucky for us we were offered the opertunity to travel to the U.S to play a live set on the radio but we figure while we're there we may as well do a couple of gigs. we'll keep you posted of the progress. currently we're looking for sponsers and venue's. if anyone's interested in booking us, promoting us etc please get in contact via myspace."

There are all kinds of photos from Gareth David-Lloyd's Polaris convention appearance this weekend and I can't see ANY of them right now, thanks to our filter at work. *grumble* It's kind of driving me a little bonkers at the moment. I want to see the pretty!

Here's some last.fm stats.
in which there was a new Gaelic Storm album, and also I listened to GDL's band a lot, even though they haven't officially released any music, AND also I accidentally left my iPod playing Tuff )

My brother is thinking of joining both lj and last.fm. That could be interesting. But he was very thankful that I helped him fix up his computer yesterday. He was still using IE! o_O

*sigh*

John Barrowman will be on one of the floats in the Toronto Gay Pride parade on Sunday.

The fact that I actually thought "it's only a 17 hour drive!" to myself may explain my mental state right now.

No, I'm not driving it, but it's still driving me nuts that he's in Toronto for the next few weeks and I'm not going there to see him. ESPECIALLY since GDL will also be in Toronto in a couple weeks for a convention. It would be a two-for-one trip!

Me? Obsessed much?

So Snowpocalypse 7.0 was pretty much a bust, at least here in the Cities. But I had to run out and grab something from my car last night. It was snowing, sleeting, raining and there was thunder & lightning. All at the same time. What the frak is going on??

THE OFFICE IS BACK! =) I laughed, I cringed. It was good!

Oh man. They announced yesterday that Gareth David-Lloyd is going to be at Dragon*Con. I am absolutely NOT pondering this. No way. Just in the same way that I am NOT pondering a trip to Toronto while John Barrowman will be there filming How to Solve a Problem Like Maria and recording his next album. And possibly shooting a movie.

This time next week I'll be in Detroit! It's sad how very excited I am to go to fucking Detroit. =)
