Welcome to SciFiGeek.info!

I'm a geek. Not the I'll-Eat-Anything-That-Isn't-Nailed-Down type (see The X-Files episode "Humbug"), but the I-Know-More-About-Starships-Than-Cars type. So it shouldn't be a surprise that I worship at the Altar of Roddenberry (and JMS and Joss!).

And as any serious Sci-Fi geek will tell you, the best part of fandom is meeting other fans at conventions and fan club activities. These pages contain photos, videos, and audio from science fiction conventions and other scifi events that I've attended over the last few years.

Photos from Shore Leave 2010 are currently being edited. Expect an update soon!

Upcoming Events

This is a list of conventions I'm planning to attend in the next few months. If you're looking for info on upcoming scifi conventions, a great place to go is the Green Tentacles Convention Finder.

Shore Leave

Held at the Hunt Valley Marriott on July 9-11. This is one of my favorite conventions of the year. There is always a great guest list, a large dealer's room (actually, rooms), and the traditional Masquerade.

Otakon

Held at the Baltimore Convention Center on July 30 - August 1. I've never been to Otakon before, but I know it's a great place to get fantastic photos of anime costumes.

DragonCon

Held on September 8-13 in downtown Atlanta, DragonCon is the big event of the convention season. While smaller than the San Diego Comic-Con, it is less commercialized. It's also held across 4 hotels instead of a convention center, so you can attend events 24 hours a day and always be only a few minute's walk away from your hotel room. DragonCon might be overwhelming as a first-timer's convention, but for con veterans this is the place to be.

Browncoat Ball

October 22-24. The Browncoat Ball is an annual event held in a different location each year to give Firefly fans a chance to meet in person, explore a new city and then attend a mighty fine shindig. This year's Ball is in Charlotte, NC, and it's looking to be a galaxy of fun.
