The Joe and David Show in Chicago

I'm absolutely hopeless at writing con reports. But I'll try and put down things as I remember them and that I haven't seen someone else say. The Joe and David portion of the day opened with a really good fan-made music vid about Sheppard and McKay to "You've Got a Friend in Me". Then David came out. He said "While I was watching that I got kind of sad. Like oh look....oh wait, that's US".
'
Autograph lines were rushed, but both guys were very focused and were really engaging with everyone. Joe looked very youthful and relaxed. He signed a picture for me that was taken several years ago and asked when it was taken. I said about four or five years ago, and he sang a little "those were the days my friend". JOE FLANIGAN SANG TO ME!

When David signed the picture, he was only concerned about the shirt he was wearing. "What is that shirt? I never had a shirt like that". All I could say was obviously he DID. But he was still perplexed in a very adorable way.

David looked really handsome, slim and tan. Hilarious as usual. Lots of funny voices and accents. It was 90 minutes (maybe a little more) of absolute hilarity and delight with the two of them onstage. It was supposed to be 30 minutes of David, then 30 with both of them, and then 30 with Joe. But Joe made David stay out there with him for the last 30.

I'm so glad you had fun! The Flan canceled at Dragon*Con so I won't get to meet him this year, but at least I get to vicariously enjoy him through you. They seem like they would play off of each other really well.

Hee! Joe sang to you! You win!

Sorry I didn't see you. I was looking around, but there were several people I never ran into and you were one of them. *pout*

They were both a hoot. I gave Joe my photo from last year, he asked why he didn't sign it then, I told him it wasn't ready. Then he shook his fist and growled something but by then I was melting into a pool of goo.

I said something to DH about losing weight and how good he looked and he said he just moved the weight around. LOL
