- Kevin reports that tix are good as gone for Vulgarthon West now. Seems that the sellout took a bit
longer than expected, likely due to the holiday weekend, travel arrangements, and so many other options and venues to
see Kevin at for the next 2 months (folks just had to make choices).
We’re happy to report that we’ll be covering both the Vulgarthon AND the East Coast Red Bank return the following
weekend. So expect scoops a’plenty, photos, and whatever else we can manage to make happen over these next few exciting
weeks.
Keep your eyes here at News Askew, as with just under two weeks until the event, we’re going to compile a bunch of
information that should make your Vulgarthon go a lot smoother.
Be sure to stop up and say hi. We’ll likely be the only guys with a laptop typing all day long. Not too tough to
spot, even in a sea of 850. We look forward to meeting you.
For now, here’s Kevin with the latest:
Caution: Over-use of the word “We” above.
Truth be told, I, too, am pretty surprised that we took as long as we did to sell out. With the other Vulgarthons, we sold out within four to six hours of tickets going on sale. Hell, even the UK and Toronto Q&A’s sold out in a little over a day of sales. And we never advertised the sale of tickets for any of those events anywhere else but right here on the site.
But this West Coat Vulgarthon took much, much longer than usual to sell out. We’ve been scratching our heads over the whole affair, really. It might’ve had something to do with the fact that it’s the Monday after Easter. The steep ticket price (and even steeper price of travel/hotel for the out-of-towners) might’ve kept some at bay. The fact that it’s being held in L.A. and not Red Bank might’ve been a factor.
It was weird. I’d be worried that maybe our audience is dwindling, but there’s no evidence of that anywhere else but with the slower sales of this event (an event which eventually sold out, too, anyway). T’was a real head-scratcher.
Regardless, all’s well now. Had to do a little hardcore pimping (you might’ve noticed that during stuff like the Alice and Film Freak radio show appearances), but we got all the asses for all the seats, and will have a nice, packed house come the day of the show.
So thanks to all those who bought early, and thanks to all those who bought late. It may have taken a bit longer, but we eventually packed the Dome.
We swear the thing is supposed to be sold out, but see the link on the website still
active? If you wanna go, hey, we suggest you click that link and secure your ticket NOW. Get in before that link
no longer has that beautiful ORDER button active! Kevin tells us that aside from the Comicons this year, it’s movie
making time, so these appearances will be the last of the bunch for a while. Don’t miss your chance to catch Kevin
live. We never hear of any disappointment.
