One of our long-time attendees had these very nice words to say about our 2009 Official Xena Convention and Lucy Lawless Concert events:
Hi guys!
I am a long time Xena fan. I have bought a gold ticket for every Creation
L.A. area convention since 1998, the 2nd year you had one. Along with
Lucy, I have expanded my Creation con going to include New York, Chicago
and London also.
I want to thank you guys for everything you do to make being a Xena fan
fun. I appreciate so much that you continue to offer the conventions and I
am absolutely convinced that without these conventions, Xena’s fandom
would be much less viable and enthused than they continue to be.
I also want to sincerely thank you for partnering with Lucy to produce her
concerts. I feel that her concerts have rejuvenated the conventions,
making going to the conventions even more enjoyable and satisfying. They
lend an extra special spark to the excitement of the cons. I appreciate
that has to have been/is an economic gamble. But I hope it has repaid you
financially, as it has certainly paid off as highly enjoyable and
satisfying new entertainment for Lucy’s fans. (Even for us hetero folks!)
It’s always a pleasure to see how many Xena cast and crew members appear
at your conventions. To me this speaks of you running a good company, one
that honors its contracts, is flexible in offering individuals a choice of
how to present themselves and one that provides a satisfactory experience
for the folks who brought us the show that we love so much. The fact
you’ve been in this business for over nearly 40 years shows that you know
what you’re doing-and the people who continue to work with you validate
that.
As a long time gold level con-goer I also appreciate how you keep adding
things to the convention schedule to keep us interested and involved with
the folks we come to see. The evening cabaret, the charity breakfast, the
free autographs, the dessert party-if anything, it’s hard time-wise to
keep up with all the “freebies” now. But it certainly has added value to
having a gold ticket-and that too is a pleasure, to see a company that
thinks about how to keep its customers entertained and satisfied and adds
a few bonuses to do that.
So anyway, thank you, thank you, thank you for 11 years of con going
pleasure. Heck, escalating con going pleasure even. It just gets better
all the time.
