there is no announcement in the program for next years fest. richard halpern was asked that question while we were waiting for the one of the events to start and the response was that no one knows yet. then several cities were shouted out as suggestions.

GOD please let there be at least one more for me.   PLEASE!
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.

I'm bummed, who's with me?

I'm just generally bummed right now, is that any good?    I wasn't sure it was this weekend and suddenly it's over.   I'm also in that vast expanse between California and NYC.

It never ceases to amaze me that these wonderful actors are willing to go to any length to please us. Kudos to Mr. Frid. Getting up out of that coffin had to be difficult, to say the least, with his bad back and all.

And thank you, Joe, for providing us with a nostalgic hunk of DS. Mucho appreciato.
I get a kick out of these guys who think they're so clean, when all the time they're trying to cover up their dirt.

watch John Karlen release Jonathan Frid from the coffin

Karlen is so cool that it's unfair to the rest of us. That was beautiful, I wish I could have been there to see that. Thank you so much Joe for the video. Was that Frid's "debut" at the fest, or had he already been out and about?

that was Frid's official introduction to the festival. Today(sunday)he gave us a real scare and not the fun kind of scare! while trying to get up from his chair, Jonathan Frid lost his balance and fell down on stage! several festival volunteers came to his rescue and got him back on his feet while the rest of us were in shock! he was ok and proved it to us by going into a tap dancing routine! it was incredible!

I just uploaded another festival highlight onto youtube. this latest clip is DAVID SELBYS entrance to the festival! he enters through the main door not from behind the stage and he enters with incredible energy and as he throws confetti he announces that he is QUENTIN COLLINS and hes running for president! later he and the audience recite a sort of wrap version of THE GETTYSBURG ADDRESS! check it out on my youtube page www.youtube.com/user/jayteevideo

Golly, both the entrances of Jonathan and David sound so fun and memorable!  I can't believe JF got into the coffin once more just to make his fans happy!!! Let's hope he had more leg room in the 2008 mark coffin!

I'd vote for Quentin Collins for president!

Cringe-inducing.  What an embarrassment.

"Thees ees the most uncomfortable coffin I've ever beeen een!"-- Landau in "Ed Wood".   I keep thinking of that.

As for D Selby's entrance, retzev, well, at least he was making an effort.   I understand the rap was in reference to Obama's candidacy... I wonder if anyone checked to find out if Obama likes rap.   It was just because he's black I guess, and just to complicate things a little more, he's only half black.

I actually liked DS enthusiams.  I mean they have done this festivials a cadrillion times...and it must be crazy trying to come up with something new.  So...I liked it.

But it's something that Quentin Collins would do.

If I flew all the way across the country to a DS Fest, I'd want to hear David Selby talking about Dark Shadows, not about who he's supporting for President.

And was everybody dancing on the casket?
