I'd happily go, but it was $1,500 or so for my wife to fly to NY to see Hanson for a week a few years ago. We don't have another $1500 sitting around unforetanetly.'

I might go to GenCon, if you're closer to there?
Edit for wrong con...

At the moment we have postponed our yearly Las Vegas trip, I"m starting a new job so funds are tight, but next year I'll be able to travel more. Being on the "wrong" coast causes some problems.

That would be awesome Lucien.
Also, I've always wanted the opportunity to have us meet up at a con, and walk around in a sort of "saberforum gang", with our Ultrasabers on our belts. That would just be too cool.

makes sense, we are the down and dirty grungy force users actually using our sabers as combat weapons instead of multi thousand dollar showpieces, those fellows would be the preps

I can picture it now, say 20-30 US Forumites walking around together, run into 20-30 "fancy saber people", some John Williams starts playing, everyone ignites their sabers, Forumites walk forward and preppies freak out because "This is a collector's item! You can't duel with it!"
PS, love the shirt Krys

True, but even the most untrained of us would have more experience than people that only take their sabers out for cons. I know I'm untrained but I spar and practice...besides with my strength I think I could make a nice mess of some collector's sabers lol

As much as I really wanna continue this hypothetical scenario (because it's awesome), we should probably not derail Krys's thread any further. Feel free to start a new thread, but let's get this one back on topic!

Thanks Ben! On the back it says "And yes they're super natural, and show's the boos looking at you." I wore it to a Seether concert once... got a lot of compliments. haha

love the new saber, and don't worry about hiding your bubbly personality when in costume, just smile a lot, they'll wonder what you're planning
