Trace Beaulieu has been added to CONvergence, which takes place over 4th of July weekend in Minneapolis. This is Convergence’s 10-year anniversary. Here’s the announcement.
One other note: Organizers tell us that the convention’s host hotel, the Sheraton Bloomington (formerly called the Radisson South, the scene of 1994’s ExpoFest-a-rama) is sold-out, but rooms are available at the nearby Sofitel across the parking lot. Frank and Josh are, apparently, interviewed in the first issue of a new magazine called PiQ. In the piece, called “The Line Between Camp and Crap” they talk about their favorite bad movies.
Thanks to Jenny for the heads up! Check it out here.
The Steve Allen Theater, 4773 Hollywood Blvd. in Los Angeles (where Cartoon Dump regularly plays), will hold a benefit for Maila Nurmi, aka Vampira, the first TV horror host and co-star of the immortal “Plan 9 from Outer Space,” who died Jan. 10 of natural causes. The benefit is to raise money to pay for her internment at the Hollywood Forever cemetery.
While the theater’s own site does not list him among the guests, a poster posted at Vampira’s official site says Joel will be among the performers. Call (800) 595-4849 or visit Steveallentheatre.com for more information. You can buy tickets to the event here. Thanks to alert reader Joe for the heads up. |
