Festival of
Fear
Toronto, ON August 27-29, 2004
All by
myself! I went to Toronto and had a great time at the Festival of
Fear.
Below you can see that I met Joe Coleman! and Alejandro Jodorowsky!
How awesome was that?
I was lucky
enough to be neighbors with the Coffee shop of Horrors and the Hairy Tarantula
I met some
new customers and took their photos for this fantabulous website.
I also ran into some zombies and didn't get eaten
I met some
really neat people in Toronto like Robin and Mark
If you're
interested in what I did, read on! Thursday night I was directed by the
nice staff at the hotel to go to King street where I found a plethora of
wonderful restaurants. After careful consideration I chose Fred's Not Here
and was exceedingly pleased with my choice (and hot waiter). Friday I woke
up late and got to work! I set up the booth, sold some stuff and, after
the show closed, I went to dinner with Bryce from Coffee Shop Of Horrors.
I don't remember the name of the place we ate at but it was good too-also on
King street! Then we ran by the Pussycat Club where RM was hosting a
party. I didn't stay long because it was hot and crowded and I wanted to
dance so I went to the Savage Garden and
had a fantastic time.
So Saturday rolls around and after the show closes, I took a cab to see Cirque
du Soleil Allegria. . .It was so worth it! Go see it if you get an
opportunity! I am madly in love with that performance. . .When I got back
to the hotel I made my way to wherever the hell the Saturday night Rue Morgue
party was. It was a lot of fun! I saw some people I knew, Gary and
Jen, Mike and Carrie, the Rue Crew and I got to hang out with new friends Sheena
and Rob (who I have no pix of :( ). Heck, I don't even have their
email addys! Contact me if you get a chance guys please :)
So I stayed up till 5 or 6 again Saturday night, and opened the booth at a tardy
11am. At the end of the day I packed up and made my way up to. . .

THE BLACK CHRISTMAS HOUSE!!!!!
Yes I found it thanks to a fellow fan's information. It took a while to find it because it was on a hidden drive. Its for sale too! Anyone want to make a donation? Its only like $2 million (that's Canadian dollars though. . .cheaper in USD) My heart was beating hard as I approached the house. . .it was such a wonderful experience. No wonder the Black Christmas shirt was such a good seller at this show! check out the screen captures below from the actual movie compared to my pictures above them :) What a perfect way to end the trip ay?. . . Filthy Billy!!!!
