Maybe Flyngirl's entourage idea will work out. Is this a John question? I noticed when requesting celebrity guests on some of the websites, that they also have a volunteer tab. How cool would that be?

Sometimes they do allow you to call or email and volunteer to work at the conventions - I know Phoenix did. I wanted to do it but all of the positions for "celebrity handlers" were filled... I really just wanted to handle celebrities.

VBS, I missed your comment... lol...
I guess it depends on the celebrity. And how they like to be... uh, "handled".

Re: Pre-Spring fun in Belgium!
There are comments and a picture on Facebook if anyone is interested. According to a fan's comment, our favorite Komikaze Cowboy has the longest lines.

Or perhaps John could post the pics here that are posted there? Anyway, they should be here, either in a forum, or in the Gallery.
Thanks.

Re: Pre-Spring fun in Belgium!
Hi! I had a good time at the Comiccon Brussels. Talked to Dirk 3 times, one time incl the photoshoot. he was very happy w my two drawings I made (of him and Fred Astaire and ond of two portaits: Face and Dirk himself.) he was incredible nice and sweet as ever. I am not able to upload my picture here. No idea how to do so. Unfortunately the vid of me meeting him is not alright.
