Glad to hear I helped another on the path to obsessive horror fandom by attending The Wasteland. I(like the marathons) have been to every single one since they've started. Did you guys stop by to buy some posters out of my Tub O' Posters? Always have some great one sheets and pressbooks to sell cheaply.
LIke the blog report on the show. Nice and detailed. Wasteland is crazy with things to do round the clock. I think I got 11 hours sleep over 3 days after leaving work Thursday night/Friday morning and heading to the show. I am also a non drinker and still have a total blast staying up till 6am every night talking about the inner workings of The Pit or the high art of Make Them Die Slowly or the great acting of Paul Naschy.
Thanks for checking out the blog. I didn't know you had a Tub O' Posters set up, I'll have to seek it out next time.
As my blog might have given away with the lack of references to directly interacting with my fellow fans, socializing is the one area where my convention (and marathon) experiences are lacking. I'm a very awkward, socially inept person, so I mostly keep to myself at these things. I need to work on that.

Also,keep an eye out for the drive in versions of the All Night Shriek O Rama in Mansfield again this year. I know it's a drive but these may be the last times these events can be held in the fading era of the drive ins.
And start saving your pennies for the October Cinema Wasteland.
I'll be at all of these events. Looking forward to them.
