    My pictures of "The frakkin End" are up on Flickr ( http://www.flickr.com/photo... ) 140 pictures... Choose your own favorites, and I'll post the most popular directly here. If there's something that you want a slightly higher quality version of (e.g. because you want to print a big blowup, for some reason) send me an email. I've got Nikon RAW files of most pictures. I actually have more that my friend, Kalen took, but I should get permission to post them.

    I hope Space found Vancouver a little more "lively" :-) ... and Natasha was a fun personality - glad she came.

    Look for an interview with yours truly in The Province's Entertainment section this Friday. They are doing a special BSG finale section.

    In case anyone is watching the numbers and worrying we won't make 100 people....don't worry! With our Facebook group, and the other friends who have called or emailed, we will be well over 100. I have just been way too busy to get an accurate count...and at this point the number doesn't matter anymore. It's just about having a great time! But thanks for the enthusiasm in signing up people. I know Space is thrilled with the response!

    Bring a picture of yourself to add to our version of Galactica's "Memorial Hallway." Also, please bring a travel mug if you have one, since that will help the dishwashing situation a great deal. With lid, to reduce chance of spillage with all those people crammed in and jostling elbows.

    As many of you already know, Space Channel is considering sending out one of their on-air personalities to join us for the finale, and include us in their live broadcast afterwards. If ever there was a time for 13th Colonists to stand up and be counted...this is it! Let's show the rest of Canada what an incredible group of BSG fans there is in Vancouver.

Who attended?

  • 110 attendees
    • “ It was exciting and there were a lot of surprises. Even with more than twice the usual crowd it made for a good Friday night and I wouldn't of missed it. Thanks to Valorie for introducing me to the show and John for supplying the seating and refreshments. ”
    • “ I don't think that one can be topped, but I have a felling that we're gonna try. ”
    • “ Utterly amazing!!! ”
    • davonna (+4 guests)
      “ best frakkin party! ”
    • Carmela (+1 guest)
      “ The wonderfully BSG-themed food was served quickly and tasted great, the crowd was super fun, and the costumes and decor were amazing. I'm so glad we got to watch Dollhouse and ourselves on TV after the episode and filming. Natasha was super cool. I'm glad we had the event at good ol' La Fontana. ”
    • “ Boltar did it again! He started agriculture, the downfall of the human. There is a theory that he moment we went away from hunting and gathering to an agricultural society, we basically open the gate to overpopulation and the lack of caring for our environment. ”
    • Hotty291ca (+2 guests)
      “ It was an amazing night, Natasha was so nice and it was great to be able to share this with so many other fans! Thank you Val for all your hard work! ”
    • Val (+15 guests)
      “ Thank you to everyone for your patience and co-operation. I can tell you Space absolutely loved what we put together, and though I haven't seen the show yet, I've heard we were definitely the highlight. Speaking of which, a bunch of it will be on "The Circuit" this week. I'll post the times. Wanna bet our "Hybrid" is prominently featured? Thanks Seth. Everyone, honestly, you rock! ”
    • “ good food; well organized; interesting behind-the-scenes look at live tv; good seating layout;no problems with display feed. ”
    • “ W.O.W. What the frak? Oh my gods. When does The Plan come out again? ”
    • “ Probably the greatest and the biggest sci fi party i have ever been to. I was a bit tired upon arrival, but the energy just spiked up like .........the old man was really there giving a speech. I hope a party like this will happen again. ”
    • Joe
      “ Wow! didn't think we'd see 100+ people inside there! That was definitely a finish! ”
    • ronnie (+2 guests)
