San Francisco Con Audio Files

[xwacky]

I just got back home last night from attending Creation Con's Salute to Supernatural in San Francisco over the weekend. I had a blast, and am still in the process of uploading various stuff I recorded here and there. Unfortunately I don't have a whole lot. As far as audio files go, I've only gotten around to record the J2 Panel and Richard Speight, Jr's panel on Sunday. I won't bore you with the reason why that is so (I'll do that in a separate con report;) Anyway, here they are -- my first offerings:

1) Listen to Jensen and Jared on Stage: (or download directly from here @ archive.org)
Because of operational error, I didn't quite get the J2 Panel in its entirety, only 42 minutes of it, but I did catch small segments of video clips here and there towards the end which I will put up as soon as I get them uploaded.

Merely listening to this recording, one may not be able to tell how in sync these two actors are on stage. For example, toward the beginning, it sounded like someone was playing drums. In fact, it was the two of them banging the butt of their mikes on the armrest of their chairs. One of them randomly started doing it, and the other immediately followed. Soon enough they got a beat going and it sounded like they rehearsed the whole thing, but it looked really spur of moment to me.

2) Listen to Richard Speight, Jr on Stage - Sunday: (or download directly from here @ archive.org)

Richard was awesome. I finally got to hear him on stage after I just missed him a couple of times in the past. I was quite amazed he was still so energetic despite his was the last panel of the weekend, and he had already been on stage once on Saturday. He was nice and exuberant through and through. He kept my interest up the entire time.

That is the Capilano suspension bridge, but it isn't one of our pictures. My daughter uploaded our pics onto her computer, and I've been too laze to transfer them to mine. :) It really is an awesome place though. Kind of like a rain forest with giant redwoods!

I'm sorry to hear about your son, although I kind of smiled a little at first. My 13 year-old son LOVES Supernatural, and at first he wanted to go, but when his sister said that there would be about 700 women and 10 men, he changed his mind. :)

I will be honest, while I LOVE Jared and Jensen, everything at the convention surrounding them was so uptight, it made me uncomfortable, and I just stayed away. While I followed my daughter up to get her autographs with Misha, Richard, Rob, etc, (and laughed at all their antics, they were all so much fun), I stayed back a little ways as the line progressed passed Jared and Jensen. The tension was just too high for me.

I'm glad your son got a chance to meet Richard and get his picture then. Robert Benedict was particularly nice to my daughter. She wants to do theater, and he took a few minutes to talk to her about it, so it was a really nice thing.

It sounds like you had as much fun as we did! :)

Whoooo, I love that suspension bridge. It's the longest I've ever seen! I took my son there several years ago, and he loved it!

Hehe, your son is a fan of the show too? How nice! :)

I totally get what you said about how tightly controlled things are around Jensen and Jared. I had the same feeling too, especially in LA Con last year (which happened to be my first SPN convention). But I felt this SF Con was a bit loosened up, the boys themselves seemed more relaxed, and were having a good time. Despite Jensen being sick, he was in good spirits.

Oh that's so sweet of Robert. And good luck to your daughter! <3
