Convention roundup! JIB IV picspam thingy - days 1 &2

[amberdreams]

I should probably have kept some proper notes and tried to post at the time but...too late now.

So JIB IV, Roma the eternal city and my fave place.
As everyone now knows, Jared didn't show, or rather had to rush home - and unbelievably there were so called fans we overheard complaining about that fact.  What they actually said was "oh I don't see why Jared had to go, it was only someone in Gen's family."  Sometimes, fandom, you are a bunch of total insensitive, entitled, immature wankers.  Way to start this on a low note.  But hey, it got better.  And better.
(Unlike the quality of my photos - I was only 3 rows back but they are pretty poor)
First little adorable Rob sang

Then Richard and Matt pornstached

Then Richard insulted Misha who was mortally offended

Misha was Misha-esque until Ty crashed his first panel of the weekend and discovered the pornstache chair

Ty was - Ty. Apparently he hadn't had more than 2 hours sleep a night since his last US convention (NJ?) and thought it was very disturbing that Daniela (who owns JIB) had told him he wasn't to drink beer before 5pm...I think he'd decided to drink baileys instead.

He called my lovely new friend Nell (mostly10 on tumblr) up onto the stage to sketch him while he talked.

The evening of the first day was the cocktail party for Angel passes and meeting up with friends like adrenalineshots and her brother, and edina clouds (Viv) and dizzo (Jane).

As well as VERY brief meetings with each of the guests (excluding Jensen of course!)




Saturday, Jensen arrived but not before lots of shenanigans on stage from Matt, Ty, Rob, some boxes, a mute kid with glasses and various inflatables including a disobedient remote-controlled flying fish, a frog and some hammers.  Oh and the banana hammock made it's first appearance of the weekend.
Ty got into more trouble with JIB for organising a breakout from the Sinners' pen outside the main hall and leading them in to see his panel.  They were sent back to their Crowley-esque queue after a few minutes of freedom and much hilarity.


What's in the box??!!?  No severed heads this time though Rob wouldn't have known as the boys were holding it up so high he could barely see over the rim!
Apparently Rob gets handsy when drunk (and climbs statues in fountains). Ty demonstrated his head locks, Rob found a new safeword - yup, banana hammock. Oh and if you search the web you should be able to find photos of Rob in a banana hammock for some film he did a while ago.

Jensen. Hirsute and in plaid, with bonus tongue porn.

Others have better shots of Jensen's Hello Kitty moment but this is my blurry one

Ty pretending to be Jared.  Jensen definitely relaxes when someone else joins him on stage.

I know that last one is totally blurry but I just love the way the spotlight caught his hair.
Right that's enough for now, I'll do another post later with some more pics and stuff.

Oooh you are going to AECon too? Awesome. A10 was such a blast, I'm sure AECon will be brilliant. And yes, I think I might be tempted to try for another Angel pass for JIB 5. These things are totally exhausting but totally addictive.

Yep, going :-) I´m tip-toeing around a M&G with them all at the mo.
Last SPN Con this year has to be wonderful.

Angel Pass? Wow! I´ll aim for a Demon again next year. Was good every year, even with a bit more waiting this year. Brought more spice to the nerves XD
And yes, it´s all so addictive!
See you next year defo. :-D
