Star Trek 55 Year Mission Vegas Convention....

[KennyB]

I looked around a bit and didn't see an active thread......anyone here attending? Timing seems to be bad with the delta surge in NV and Clarke county. If you are there have fun but stay safe! Boots on the ground reports welcome :-)

The only thing I heard was on Twitter that Terry Ferrel had a bad cold and wouldn't be coming to the Convention this year.

There are a few Twitter pages to find stuff about the Star Trek convention are Trek news.net Trekcore and Trekmovie have some new pictures and the hashtag #stlv there's stuff also being posted of fans posting their photos and comments there.

Thanks for that.......I'm sure the Friday-Sunday crowds will be larger, looks calm at the moment.

This is the convention that lost the Star Trek Licence and has renamed the Borg alcoves into Threll teleportation booth, right?

Yikes, that's a lot of cancellations. I feel badly for everyone involved. It's a hard situation.

Wow! I heard that there were some cancelations by Star Trek actors.Trek Movie said a few weeks ago they said a 100 actors would be appearing in Las Vegas.

Looks like it might be about 55% of that......Looks like most of Discovery cast canx. They may be filming through weekends to finish. I know they are close to wrapping.

I know as of last Friday my pal John was still going.

I'm looking forward to a post-convention report.

Just announced Jeri Ryan dropped out.

I mean, it's understandable. Maybe Creation should have pushed it back again, but I'm sure they didn't want to.

But damn that's a lot of stars not participating any longer. I would feel pretty bummed if I shelled out $700 for a Gold Weekend Pass...

I did find some pictures on twitter that showed alot of people went to the ds9 panel with Cirroc Lofton, they celebrated his birthday. Connor Trinneer and Dominic Keating had a bingo night event instead of their Karoke night party due to covid., It still looked like they had fun. The Women of Star Trek panel With Denice Crosby and Nicole Deboer Still included Terry Ferrel through a Video feed from home.They had some technical difficulties with sound but got it fixed. And they had a crowd who came to watch Lower decks last night.

I saw a short Video Connor posted of announcing Bingo night on his twitter page and John Billinglsey signing photos at Las Vegas .Also Noah Hawley meeting Jeffrey Combs as a a fan of his Character Shran. for the first time. Jeffrey and Kitty Swank did a Ds9 panel about the Vorta characters they played on ds9.Garrett Wang was visiting other actors from Enterprise and ds9 and having a good time meeting with the fans .

Trekcore has alot of new photos last night of the costume contests and photos of William Shatner and Kelsey Grammer appearing onstage. The fans were excited to see them.Also Marc Alaimo and Casey Biggs being Onstage Gary Graham was talking about portraying Soval and being on Alien Nation .Isa Briones was part of a concert last night and it also looked liked fans enjoyed the concert too.Today Isa Briones, Evan Evagora and Jonathan Del Arco are going to appear for the Picard panel today.

I understand the desire to get “back to normal” but people shouldn’t be going to these kinds of things at all. We’re not there, yet.

My thoughts too @Maurice Creation should have pushed this with Delta surging. IMHO.
