Things are looking grim on my end, I may not be able to see him. I hope that you get the opportunity to see him, at least you will be able to tell me how it was like. Hopefully, I will be able to make it to Toronto.

 Oh no, what happened?? I guess the tables have turned, so to speak. Now that I can go you can't. Well there's no guarantee that I'll make it in time to see him either. I'll do my best!

-Wow- Sorry to interrupt you guys, but I will be going on the Sa####ay, but I will not be seeing Mr. Stewart. Being a minor, I can't afford to. Just on the side I play trombone.

I'm going on Sunday so I'm not seeing Patrick Stewart either. I will be seeing Anthony Montgomery though. I went to the Expo last year and the year before as well and both times it was very professional, very enjoyable.

Another thing, for some reason I keep thinking that I will be the only person there in a starfleet uniform. (The same one as my avatar.) So for anyone that is going, or been there, please tell me that there will be a lot of people in uniform/costume there!

Thank you for your responses LtCmdrGordon and Voyager359! That puts my mind at ease a bit.
And LtCmdrGordon, go ahead and wear your uniform! If I had one, I'd definitely wear it!! I think it's always more fun in costume! We have some "musical" Trekkies here!

I have shocking news, Patrick Stewart will not be attending the event. PSN reports that his arrival was cancelled due to an unexpected heart operation. Michael Dorn and LeVar Burton will be taking his place. I hope that Mr. Stewart will make a quick recovery. On another note, I will be able to attend, I was stunned of what had happened, but will go nonetheless. PSN Cancellation NewsSFX Guests Update

Do you know if the people that bought tickets for Patrick Stewart will be the only ones to see Micheal Dorn and Levar Burton?

Those who have purchased tickets to see Mr. Stewart will be spoken to by the production manager at 4:30 Sa####ay regarding the situation. I believe they will be the ones able to see them. Ticket Holders Information

I went today, thinking that I'd buy the Patrick Stewart tickets today and go tomorrow just in case they'll be sold out. To my shear disappointment, I was told that he had cancel last minute. Well, since I drove all the way down there, I decided to stay and look around as I had never been to a convention before. I ended up meeting Cirroc Lofton and Aron Eisenburg! I had a long talk with Cirroc and got both their autographed pics. (I really wished they had a pic with them in it together!) They were so nice! Aron had broken his foot while biking with his boys but I'm glad he still came. I had a great time even though I thought I'd be too disappointed! As for meeting Michael Dorn and Levar Burton, they'll be there tomorrow and their autograph tables are right beside Cirroc's. You will most likely get their autographs without having to have gotten the Patrick Stewart tickets. To all who are going -- have fun!!!!!  And on another great note, Patrick Stewart didn't really cancel, he postponed his visit to the Fall 2004. I didn't know that it was because of an unexpected heart operation! I really hope he is (or will be) well! His health is more important than coming to the SFX!!

Yes, Patrick Stewart had to undergo some unexpected heart surgery. How is the convention? Are there area's in which one may purchase merchandise? What did Cirroc have to say? Did you have to pay for there autographed pictures? Excuse all the questions, this sounds quite fascinating. I'm pleased to hear that you enjoyed yourself, it's unfortunate Mr. Stewart was unable to attend.

Well, I only bought a Basic pass, so I didn't see the presentation by Cirroc and Aron. I kinda wish I bought a deluxe pass. But it was my first time and I didn't know what to expect. There where HUGE areas were you can buy merchandise. (For SF stuff I suggest that once you get to the top of the escalator, go straight to the end of the huge room, then turn left and you'll hit the autograph area.) What did Cirroc say? Well, I was so dumbfounded I hardly remembered who I was! He asked about me, like if I was in school, what I wanted to be, and more. He did all most of the talking at first -- I didn't know what to say, I was so nervous! I'm sure I would have fainted if Patrick Stewart were actually there!! He sits there at a table with pics of himself infront of him and you get to pick one. He signs it (personalized if you want it to be -- but who wouldn't want it to be???) and you pay a small fee. Aron even called me back when I almost forgot to pay him! But it is expected, he did play a Ferengi!! He said he couldn't really chase me down  !
