RiffTrax at Dragon*Con Petition

[gbeenie]

Since I first heard about RiffTrax, I've been interested in getting Mike, Kevin and Bill as guests at this year's Dragon*Con (www.dragoncon.org). Given Mike and Kevin's huge audience for their Q&A session in 2002, I strongly believe a live RiffTrax performance could be one of the best-attended events of 2007's convention. I have already heard back from RiffTrax that there is definitely interest on THEIR end; now, it's a matter of convincing the Powers What Be at Dragon*Con.

In this vein, I have started an online petition, which people can sign here:

www.petitiononline.com/2007rtdc/petition.html

However, an even more effective means of communicating your desires to Dragon*Con would be to email ([e-mail]) or call (770-909-0115) the convention offices to let them know you want RiffTrax at Dragon*Con.

I can tell you from my prior experiences that feedback from past and potential attendees very definitely affects events that are scheduled at Dragon*Con. You CAN help make this happen.

p.s. I've been told that they like snail-mail letters VERY MUCH. The address is:

Dragon*Con
PO Box 16459
Atlanta, GA 30321-0459

p.p.s. SPREAD THE WORD. Like I said, we can make this happen, but only if we pimp the hell out of it to every MST3K/RiffTrax fan we know.

Thanks for the info, gbeenie.

I'll sticky this so we can keep it active for the members.

Is there a date for the event yet? I didn't see it anywhere.

Great idea, and not to be a poo-pooer, but the con's like 7 weeks away. It is WAY too late for the con organizers to add an event and make arrangements for additional guests. Not to mention the short notice for Mike, et al.

Well the thread was started about 5 month ago.
