The sacrifices I make for you people...

[tzikeh]

I work at a tv and radio station complex. We have lots of guests come in and out of the building for appearances on news shows, and interviews, and performances (we film Soundstage here, which is syndicated nationally on PBS. Check your local listings. *g*).

Over the past three years, I've gotten to meet a lot of interesting people, from Tom Petty to Elie Wiesel to Art Spiegelman to Tori Amos to Kofi Annan... you get the point. A week from today, when I will not be at work because I will be lugging equipment from my home to the VividCon hotel and setting it up, who do you think will be here, getting ready to record a set for Soundstage?

Guess.

No. Really. Guess.

Give up?

30-Odd Foot of Grunts, the band which features Russell Crowe.

Russell. Crowe.

:looks pointedly at all of you:

I better get some GODDAMNED FREE DRINKS at VividCon this year, is all I'm saying.

I bet you'd get a whole boatload of free drinks if you talked him into making an appearance at VividCon. ;-)

You'e met Art Spiegelman?

Woo. I am impressed.

That's just...insane! Torture! Argh!

You know, I wasn't going to come for VividCon, but what if I sneaked my way into your office...

Screw us! Go to work.

Wait, that can't be right.

Do they need someone to fill in while you're out? ;)

Fuck the con, man! Go to work for a few hours! I'd blow off anyone for that. Don't be a martyr for vids!

You crack me up.

I appreciate the great sacrifice you're making, though.

Dude. We of VividCon are *far* more charming than Russell Crowe. Maybe not so much with the hotness, but eh. ::waving hand::

I'll buy you a drink anyway, though. And, depending on when I get into town, will be more than happy to help lug.

Carol suggests you bring the equipment early and leave it with a porter.

Sigh. Russell Crow is even IN my "If You Were In My Movie" vid.

Double sigh.

Whenever you want a drink, just grab my elbow...

[jackiekjono.livejournal.com]

Say, maybe you could talk your co-workers into spying for us and they could find out where the band will be hanging out after the taping. We could all go there and buy you drinks while we watch Russ and the boys trash the place.

Just a suggestion.

Dude, if it were me, I'd find a way to at least pop in and meet the guy. You know, before he becomes a dad and turns all gooshy and stuff. :D
