Yep, there's a Mr. Midnite.

There's a screen grab here from the 60 Minutes II segment:
That's our Rev. David on the far right. ...

Hey Gerard:
I'll be happy to wed you to Kathryn.
It'd be legal in Utah, and she wouldn't even have to divorce her current husband!

RE: 60 Mins, when one realizes that DS has returned from the dead more times than Angelique, the show should be on 60 Mins!

great idea. i will add another offer. if the ceremony takes place while no major events or panels are going on at the festival, i would be willing to videotape any ceremonies that take place free of charge. then we would have footage to submit to "60 minutes"! lol

Ha.  I was just teasing my partner about joining me in CA to get married.  We had a little ceremony here in GA a few years ago but alas it will be a cold day in hell before it's legal here.  Clever little thing caught on to me though and said she refused to get married at a Dark Shadows Festival.  Well, she had her chance so if that other guy is gonna marry KLS then I call fantasy gay wedding dibs on LP.  But on a somewhat related note, are there any get togethers at the Fest for GLBT fans?  This will be my first Fest.

Hey Julie

There are plenty of LGBTs in DS fandom, and we always manage to find each other.
This great board has been an LGBT safe haven for the longest time!
In fact, I haven't been to a DS Fest in years, but the goings on at DS Boards convinced me to give it another shot!

And dont give up on one day getting legal gay weddings in Georgia.
Ten years ago I would have said: "it can never happen in CA",  but it did~~the world is changing.

I am so glad for all those who will be able to get married.  I doubt it will EVER be legal here either.  I wish it were.  I have ALWAYS been fascinated and greatful for the GLBT community in DS FANDOM!!
If you like DS and want to have a fun  on a Facebook page that is open to all forms of DS and doesn't allow childish behavior like some groups; come on over to DIAESD! You do have to ask to be invited and I will approve you.

Will you be dressing up as Rev. Trask?

I'm sorry, I couldn't resist. [ghost_tongue2]

And was everybody dancing on the casket?

Oh, if only it were...  Just wait til November.  I'll cross my fingers, but I'm not holding out much hope.

So, inquiring minds are dying to know...were you able to perform any marriages at the Fest? What a cool idea!

I didn't do any ceremonies, but I did spend some nice quality time with our own Prof. Stokes & her fiance~~who asked me if I'd do their ceremony!
So when they set the date, I'll be there!

The fiance is a super cool dude who, no kidding, planted a big wet one on my lips!
Said totally straight he: "If we had more kissing in the world, they'rd be less killing!"
Ain't that the truth!
(And he's a good kisser!!)

I also hung out with Midnite for a bit.
Next time, we'll have that drink!
