looking forward to this years - but on a sad note my friend Chris Alexader wont be there representing Rue Morgue this year as he's moved to Fangoria as a writer there now - so i won't be able to hang with him at this years con.

which brings me to :

Chris knows I love photography and have a half decent camera (i finally graduated to digital-SLR - a Sony alpha 100 which is basically a Minolta)
I am now ready to graduate to a professional quality Nikon for reasons I'm about to reveal - but i dont have the 6 - 7000$ to spend on one yet.

anyway - Chris had an interview to go to for Fangoria - to see Gaslight Studios - the guys who did the zombie work for Diary of the Dead among other things - and he asked me to come along as a photographer - which i did.
On eof the pictures I took was used in March Fangoria - the one that's out right now. Just a small picture - but i took it, my name is in there as a credit ... so after all these years - i got something published in a magazine - let alone a horror rag :)

Since then i went on one more visit : a press junket for Rambo - with the beautiful Julie Benz. (she also plays Rita on Dexter)

this is after Chris got me hooked on Dexter - which i think is the best TV show ever made. (next to SCTV)

here are a couple of pics from the gaslight interview - and Julie Benz :




this is the one the magazine used :


Julie Benz : (they went for a Dexter production still - but i didnt care - it was agreat experience just being there)




Took our son to his first concert this year : Roger Waters - amazing
and his first musical : We Will Rock You - hideous piece of shit - but he liked it
