I would like to thank you for the great contributions you make to the boards!

Your thought provoking and insightful posts are a welcome relief from the mundane, trivial, and inane ramblings found here.

I will not be selling at this show as it conflicts with Planet Con. Maybe next time.

 

adm22 is the promoter of this and several other good 1 day shows across the mid-west of which a few of them I sell at. He comes on here every couple months and will list these shows at one time. He will list them on the calendar as per the rules.

 

He does not list them 1 year or more ahead of time or before the current show has even taken place as I have seen with some event threads. This to me would be too early.

 

It seems to irritate some board members that this is done at one time but again no rules are broken. Just let nature take its course and within a few days they will drift off the first page into oblivion and not ever be seen again. Let the promoter have his 15 minutes and all is good. If it seems necessary for someone to bump numerous events just for the sake of bumping to expedite page 2 oblivion I'm sure I can bump them back to page 1.

This is always a nice little show.

Is there still a comic shop in the city last time I was there Comic Cavalcade and the shop on Green street were closed.

I dislike this show because it gets me excited for .1 seconds before I realized the Twin Cities are not Minneapolis & St. Paul. Have fun everyone!

Earl of Leon's Comics who used to set up at several shows in the area, but is now confining himself to the one in the Twin Cities recently opened up a Comic Shop in Savoy just south of Champiagn on Rt 45. I do not know exactly where. He was at this show romoting his shop- he had not yet started selling new comics and was mainly doing back issues as of earlier this month. He does bring a nice selection of older books to the shows.

There is a convention in the Minneapolis- St. Paul suburb of Mounds View four times a year. The next two will be on 9 Jun and 15 Sep.
